Cargo transport is an important element for the economy and the development of a region. However, most studies are focused on the movement of people. Additionally, the movement of cargo is seen as a problem by the other elements involved in mobility. On the other hand, the scarce availability and high cost of obtaining data limits the study of cargo movement patterns. In this work, using transport modelling tools, we studied the possibility of using the data stored in electronic tax invoices as the main input for the allocation process by generating distribution routes for each of the cargo vehicles in the urban area for a specific cargo segment. Thus, the case study seeks to present the applicability that this process would have and the potential of the data from the referred documents, which could be used as additional input during the urban strategic planning process.
