Appendix C: Model for Estimating the Population of
Freight Vehicles
We used the elastic coefficient method to estimate the population
of freight vehicles in Guiyang in 2015 under various scenarios. This
method utilizes the history inventory of freight vehicles and
elastic coefficient to estimate the vehicle inventory in the future.
Simultaneously, the proportion of vehicle types can also be estimated.
Finally, data of the future freight vehicles inventory can be obtained.
Details for the model are depicted in Figure C.1.
