This paper presents some features of PLANiTS (Planning and Integration for Intelligent Transportation Systems). In particular, it discusses some functions of the Methods Base. These include representation of model chains, selection of models and data, and data transformations and aggregation. Sequences of models are represented using graph notation. Models and data are selected given the Planning Vector specification, although users may override system selections. The Methods Base features are illustrated with an example drawn from the PLANiTS prototype (version 1 .O).
