Abstract

The construction of urban and transport indicators aims for a better diagnosis that enables technical and precise decision-making for the public administration or private investment. Therefore, it is common to make comparisons and observe which has better diagnosis results in a diversity of indexes and models. The present study made a comparative analysis of spatial models using artificial intelligence to estimate transport demand. To achieve this goal, the audit field was recollected in specific urban corridors to measure the indicators. A study case in Querétaro, an emergent city in the Mexican region known as El Bajío, is conducted. Two similar urban avenues in width and length and close to each other were selected to apply a group of spatial models, evaluating the avenues by segments and predicting the public transport demand. The resulting database was analyzed using Artificial Neural Networks. It displays specific indicators that have around 80% of correlations. The results facilitate the localization of the avenue segments with the most volume of activity, supporting interventions in urban renewal and sustainable transportation projects.
