in a network file I need to work with, there is an attribute defined for the links element
<links capperiod="01:00:00" effectivecellsize="7.5" effectivelanewidth="3.75">
I have found no mention of this capperiod in the book, but can guess what it means and would like to know what it is used for

capperiod is short for "capacity period". It specifies the time period (typically and by default one hour) for which the (flow) capacity is defined in the links. So, if a link has capacity="1000", this essentially means that 1000 / capperiod, i.e. 1000 vehicles per hour with the settings above.

Whats the effective cell size? Is that the length of the vehicle?
