What to expect

The TPA Transport Modelling Network (TMN) and the NZ Modelling User Group (NZMUGS) are excited to welcome you to this joint event. This is a great chance to hear presentations across a range of transport modelling topics and connect with industry colleagues across Australia and New Zealand.

We are excited to showcase the following speakers from the 2026 TPA National Transport Conference and 2026 NZMUGS Conference to share their content internationally

• Caleb Deverell | Beyond Static Maps: Automating Interactive Visualisation for Transport Modelling
• Shaun Tabone | From Legacy to Future-Ready: Why We Need Activity-Based Transport Models Now
• Lucie Jílková | Mechanisms behind the numbers with Monty
• Paris Brunton | Harnessing the power of ABMs to address key transport challenges  

The TPA Transport Modelling Network (TMN) is a national committee which is composed of elected representatives from every state and territory in Australia. The TMN is dedicated to cultivating and catering for the interest knowledge and expertise of Transport and Land Use Modelling (TLUM) across Australia. The TMN covers a broad range of Transport and Land Use Modelling activities for all modes of transport. This provides an opportunity for individuals from all sectors, including government, academia, research, data collection, software development and consulting to interact, share knowledge and promote good practice within the modelling community and to/from the wider transportation planning & engineering industry. For the TPA National Transport Conference, the TMN assists with the development of the transport and land use modelling sessions by reviewing all abstract and paper reviews in collaboration with the local conference organising committee.

The NZ Modelling User Group (NZMUGS) is a sub-group of the Transportation Group, dedicated to promote the interests of transport modelling within NZ. It is the intention that NZMUGS will represent all aspects of modelling including static/ deterministic, micro-simulation, wide-area/ strategic modelling, passenger transport modelling, as well as emerging areas as pedestrian and accessibility modelling. The NZMUGS Conference provides a significant opportunity for researchers, engineers, modellers and other practitioners in the transportation modelling fraternity to discuss current developments with macroscopic, static/ deterministic, micro-simulation, wide-area/ strategic modelling, passenger transport modelling as well as emerging areas such as pedestrian and accessibility modelling.
