The modeling lexicon breaks down each metric by name, and provides both the model type used to create it and a definition description for full explanation. Designed as a quick-reference chart, the lexicon provides important information and clarification across all the different VMT metrics, assisting the user in effectively navigating VMT calculations of all types.
Using Our Lexicon Reference
We invite you to explore our VMT Modeling Lexicon, and we are open to comments and input for enhancements to it as well. The lexicon is intended as a helpful reference for unpacking the complexities of VMT analysis and as a road map for accurate calculations.
