I will be doing some small area analysis with QRS II. How should I approach the network setup?
I recommend that you use subarea focusing to handle small areas. Use tiny zones in the subarea and large zones outside. Use a fine street system in the subarea and a coarse one outside. Use less detail the farther you get from your subarea. This is essentially the method described in NCHRP Report #187. You might also want to review NCHRP Report #255 for additional hints on travel forecasting.
