TY - JOUR PY - 2024// TI - Identifying and understanding long-distance travel demand by combining official transport statistics and survey data JO - Transportation research procedia A1 - Schulz, Angelika A1 - Magdolen, Miriam A1 - Chlond, Bastian A1 - Kuhnimhof, Tobias A1 - Köhler, Katja SP - 458 EP - 469 VL - 76 IS - N2 - While much is known about everyday travel of the German population, long-distance travel is still underreported. The main data source, the national travel survey "Mobility in Germany (MiD)", cannot simply be used to describe the demand: complex extrapolations and complementary data are necessary to obtain a consistent picture. The presented approach of 'data fusion' integrates different data sources to provide the overall long-distance travel demand. The result reveals that almost half of the total transport performance of the residential population in Germany (46 % of passenger kilometers) is accounted for by trips of at least 100 km (one-way distance).
