This document specifies the input and output formats of the Opturion Dynamic Transport Optimiser (DTO). The input and output to the DTO can be given either as a Microsoft Excel workbook (DTO-Excel, see Sections 3 and 4) or as a JSON document (DTO-JSON, see Sections 5 and 6).
The DTO-Excel format is intended for use as a standalone modelling interface.
The DTO-JSON interface is intended for use when interacting with the DTO via a web service.
Examples of data input and output in JSON format are provided in Appendices A and B.
