Abstract
A new development has been introduced to the computer devices industry. This device, termed a digital incremental plotter, is now being recognized as a powerful tool. An incremental plotter operates in the following manner: an impulse, or signal is sent to the plotter directing the plotter pen to move in a particular direction and to lift or to lower itself. Straight lines may be drawn, then, for representation of data in graphical form.|Since the digital incremental plotter appeared to have significant potential as an aid to the analysis of data from traffic assignment programs, a research study was initiated by TTI to develop plotting programs. This report will discuss the plotting capabilities and requirements of the plot programs in order to acquaint those responsible for the analysis of traffic assignment data with their use and to permit an evaluation of the plot programs as an additional tool for data analysis.
