The force of attraction between 2 bodies is
directly proportional to the product of masses
between the two bodies and inversely
proportional to the square of the distance

Limitations of
the Gravity Model
Too much of a reliance on K-Factors in
calibration
External trips and intrazonal trips cause
difficulties
The skim table impedance factors are often too
simplistic to be realistic
