Unfortunately – but as expected ­ the situation on the lower level is much worse than it seems<br />

from an aggregated level. Hence the obtained results especially for the southern part of Europe<br />

have to be regarded with care concerning the representativeness of generated transport patterns.<br />

RC<br />

(A)<br />

For the ten accession countries there were no other data available, like some basic figures<br />

concerning the total amount of mode specific traffic and selected passenger figures of airports.<br />

Therefore some of the data sources as described in section 5.2 are therefore of a special interest.<br />

To pick out just two examples, the IATA Digest on statistics covering traffic by flight stage and<br />

the ship pax statistics yearbooks are the only sources available for passenger flows to and from<br />

Malta and Cyprus. This not really satisfying situation drove us to develop the concept of a<br />

testing matrix, as described in the section 4.9.<br />

4.5 The MKmetric model approach<br />

Aware about the problems mentioned in the previous section, we decided to use an approach<br />

which was developed in­house. This approach is mainly based on survey data and generates<br />

journeys in a two­step process. In the first step the trip rates per capita are estimated, while in<br />

the second step relation­specific proportions of aggregated trip volumes are quantified.<br />

The figure 5.1 gives a general overview about the structure of the model/ data generation<br />

process applied in this project. The generation process consists of three sub­models that<br />
