VERPAT

CalculatePolicyVmt module done
Working on final RPAT module - performance metrices - as part of new VEReports package
Should be done by end of next week / early the following week

Completed VERoadPerformance package. This package combines the calculation of roadway DVMT by vehicle type (CalculateBaseRoadDvmt and CalculateFutureRoadDvmt modules) with the 'congestion' calculations (CalculateRoadPerformance). This involved considerable coding to corral code from different parts of the GreenSTEP_Sim.R script and the calcCongestion function to make into modules that are also understandable. Code was written so that it will also work for GreenSTEP and EERPAT. It is written so that it will work out of the box for different metropolitan areas around the country.
Plan to commit by end of this week
Next will return to VEEnergyAndEmissions and plan to complete by end of next week
Will work on VETravelCosts the final week of March and expect to complete by end of week

Revised testModule to work for future year data sets #149
Enabled Get and Set specs for currency data to have units that don't specify a currency year. When no year is specified, the framework treats as base year #150.
Corrected bugs which prohibited reading dataset from datastore located in directory other than the current directory #151.
Made several changes to enable datastore referencing to work #152 (this feature is important for scenario management).
Made several changes to RD datastore functions to speed up writing to the datastore.

Reviewed, commented on, and closed several issues
Added a new milestone - End User Experience - for the next phase of work and a couple new issues for new work
Cleaned up the licensing throughout the repository #47
Plan to stick with R 3.4 for completing VERPAT and VERSPM
