Using Data in Vensim

This video walks you through most of the pathways for using time series data in Vensim. You’ll need Vensim PLE+, Pro or DSS for most of this – if you don’t have a copy, you can use the trial link above.

Vensim Calibration – Part 1

This video walks you through the essence of the calibration process, from creating synthetic data (for “real” data, see the previous workshop) to an initial, simple calibration.

Vensim Calibration – Part 2

This video picks up where Part 1 ends, and covers advanced topics – weighting the payoff, Kalman fitering, using Markov Chain Monte Carlo for confidence bounds, sensitivity analysis, and priors for Bayesian System Dynamics.
