Simulation of commuting by carpooling in the Czech Republic
Original language description
The decline of public transport usage in the Czech Republic can bring a lot of traffic, environmental and other problems. Carpooling seems to be very interesting alternative for people who prefers private car but who wants to save money. The more commuter carpool the more money they save. There is no statistic about carpooling use in the Czech Republic, but this paper would like to introduce the main positives of this type of commuting and compare it with other travel possibilities as public transport and individual transport. 95 main employers in three NUTS3 Regions were chosen as targets of commuting. New special extension for the OpenJump software was developed and utilised. Randomly selected buildings were used as commuting origin and as street data-source the StreetNet was used. Based on results from almost 124 000 simulations there can be calculated distance and money saves with using carpooling compared to public transport and individual transport.
