iTRIPP: A GIS-supported Modelling Tool for Quantifying and Mapping the Impacts of Regional Transport Strategies
To address the need for promoting the integration of urban and rural transport services within a regionally aligned strategy, the integrated Territorial tRansport maPPer (iTRIPP) was developed. This GIS-supported modelling tool enables environmental, social and economic effects of new local strategies to be quantified and mapped across a region.

Data collection method:
Data was obtained from UK Government Datasets (e.g.: National Travel Survey) under the Open Government Licence v3.0. Further methodological details can be found in the associated publication. Methodological and conceptual processes were developed in: - Prior Filipe & McCullen (2024), DOI: 10.3390/su16135819 - Prior Filipe, Heath, McCullen, & Smith (2024), DOI: 10.3390/su16114728 - Prior Filipe, Heath, & McCullen (2022), DOI: 10.3390/su142315950
Technical details and requirements:
The script requires the open-source QGIS to run in its dedicated Python console and the adaptable parameters in the Input Matrix CSV file (located in the Support folder).
Additional information:
The script was developed following the analytical processes developed in the associated article.
