Several different models have been developed in the past decade for analyzing trip distribution and traffic assignment functions in the modeling of transportation systems. Few have been designed for application to intercity planning in developing regions, a setting in which the high degree of uncertainty in the available data poses special problems. Four trip distribution models--a growth factor model, a gravity model, an intervening opportunities model, and a preferencing model; and four traffic assignment models--the all or nothing model, one pass multiple routing by centroid model, an incremental assignment model and a multipath assignment model, are described and compared in order to provide insight into the problem of model selection.
