The directory structure of the NERPM-AB setup is described below.

Root Directory

The root directory contains 9 folders, 2 version files, and a text log file. The three important folders are the Scenarios, scripts, and tools folders. The scripts folder contains all the Python scripts to run various model processes. A brief description of the Scenarios and tools folders is provided in the following section. The filters, graphics, listings, and procedures folders contain custom parameter files to filter network data, generate useful graphics, and load procedure parameters for specific modeling tasks. The output_SWM folder stores the outputs from the Statewide Model which are input to the NERPM-AB auxiliary models. The root directory also includes the version files for the base (NERPM_D2_2015_MAZ.ver) and future year (NERPM_D2_2045_MAZ.ver). The version files contain the network, data, and procedures for each model year. The settings and parameters have been configured as per the model year. The messages.txt file is used to log messages from each model run.

Scenarios Directory

The Scenarios directory houses the inputs and outputs for each scenario. The Scenarios directory structure is shown below followed by the description of the Input and Output folders in each scenario folder.

├── Base2015/ : base scenario directory
│ ├── Input/ : base year inputs
│ └── Output/ : base year outputs
│
└── CF2045/ : future year scenario directory
├── Input/ : 2045 inputs
└── Output/ : 2045 outputs
