Atlantis Press. https://doi.org/10.2991/978-94-6463-972-8_4 - published online: 29 December 2025, which discusses  method of assessing a similarity of the traffic analysis zones to the given base zone. The aim of this article is to verify the possibility of identifying zones with similar characteristics within a given city and approximating the micro-simulation results from a base zone to these similar zones.
