VDOT has been investigating heavily in mobile bike/ped counters as a part of a statewide push to get reliable bike/ped counts throughout the state and hopefully in a few years will have built up that program enough for it to be of great use to us planners as well. big data aggregated from smartphone GPS movements) and local count data. For this VDOT is starting to use more Streetlight data (e.g. It's an OK way to look to see how well a system performs over a large area such as an MPO, but fails at the neighborhood or more local level. It uses Traffic Analysis Zones (similar to Census Block Groups) that tries to separate out residential zones (auto generators) and attractor zones (commercial and office). Otherwise the usual, excel, word, PowerPoint, Google Earth, etc. I also use a prioritization tool developed internally for performance based planning to help identify long range transportation priorities. It's likely the same for other state agencies and private consulting firms for entry level jobs, but good to be aware of them and what each programs does from a high level.ДЇor developing public surveys on studies, VDOT uses MetroQuest so I use this routinely as well. The rest I learned during my career since VDOT offers courses on all these other programs and encourages planners and engineers to take them routinely. Going into the position I only had experience in GIS and TransCAD. I'd recommend having a good working knowledge of HCM best practices. I also use CORSIM and PTV VISSIM from time to time.

I also work with SIDRA and Synchro though admittedly less than GIS and TransCAD and mainly just to review the work that Traffic Engineering puts together and provide feedback. I was also using CUBE, but VDOT has since phased this out which isn't to say that some other agencies aren't using it. I work mainly with GIS and TransCAD for travel demand modeling. There are other staff in my organization that do travel demand forecasting (e.g., EMME, TransCAD, Visum) and traffic simulation (e.g., Vissim, SIDRA).

Software I use infrequently and is on a project-by-project basis: Streetmix (conceptual street cross-sections).Trafficware Synchro & SimTraffic (traffic analysis).Autodesk AutoCAD (CAD drawing or viewing).Software I use somewhat frequently on a monthly basis (at least once a month, but also project-dependent): Adobe InDesign (desktop publishing for maps, reports, boards, etc.).

Software I use frequently on a weekly basis (at least once a week): Software I use very frequently on a daily basis (every day of the week): I work as a transportation planning consultant for public and private sector clients in Canada.
