N2  - For a large number of applications conventional methods for estimating an origin-destination matrix become too expensive to use. The  present research has used the entropy maximizing method (attached in  SATURN computer mode) to estimate the 0-D matrix from some traffic volume  counts of Bangkok Expressway network. Two conventional techniques  (license plate and roadside interview) were employed to conduct the observed 0-D matrices. The observation were done in three time duration  (1) 07.00-09.00 hrs., (2) 12.00-14.00 hrs. and (3) 16.Q0-18.00 hrs.  Three sets of SATURN runs, (1) run with all traffic counts available and  good guessing prior matrix, (2) run with parts of traffic counts and good  guessing prior matrix, and (3) run with all traffic volume counts but  no prior matrix guessing, were done to obtain the estimated 0-D matrices.  The comparisons of observed and estimated 0-D matrices indicates  that the use of entropy maximizing method for the low trip interchange  is not suitable but the mod e l performed better in the higher range of trip  interchange. Therefore some modifications (e.g. to incorporate trip  impedance between entrance and exit) were recommended
