ABSTRACT
A synthetic population is a simplified microscopic representation of an actual population. Statistically representative at the population level, it provides valuable inputs to simulation models (especially agent-based models) in research areas such as transportation, land use, economics, and epidemiology. This article describes the datasets from the Synthetic Sweden Mobility (SySMo) model using the state-of-art methodology, including machine learning (ML), iterative proportional fitting (IPF), and probabilistic sampling. The model provides a synthetic replica of over 10 million Swedish individuals (i.e., agents), their household characteristics, and activity-travel plans. This paper briefly explains the methodology for the three datasets Person, Households, and Activity-travel patterns. Each agent contains socio-demographic attributes, such as age, gender, civil status, residential zone, personal income, car ownership, employment, etc. Each agent also has a household and corresponding attributes such as household size, number of children ≤ 6 years old, etc. These characteristics are the basis for the agents' daily activity-travel schedule, including type of activity, start-end time, duration, sequence, the location of each activity, and the travel mode between activities.
