Requests for Models and Data

Requests for models, data, and further documentation should be submitted in writing with a signed letter. The letter should be as specific as possible regarding what model version, data, and documentation are required. The letter should be addressed to:

Ronald F. Kirby
Director, Department of Transportation Planning
Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments
777 North Capitol Street, NE
Suite 300
Washington, DC 20002

COG/TPB staff will respond to the request detailing what can be provided, on what timeline and at what cost. "Off-the-shelf" requests will be sent at a minimal charge for shipping and handling. Custom requests will be priced according to staff time needed for preparation.

Note: The travel demand models require the use of a proprietary software called TP+ produced by Citilabs. COG/TPB staff cannot provide this software.
