Trans Modeler
Trans Modeler
TransModeler lets you create and manage multiple projects, networks, demand profiles, and traffic signal control strategies for alternatives analysis. With TransModeler you can:
- Import simulation data from Corsim and SimTraffic
- Manage a variety of input files for multiple scenarios
- Share project databases, traffic signal timing plans, and other input data between multiple projects
- Export subareas of larger networks to simulate traffic operations on a more localized scale
- Compare output results from multiple simulation runs
- Generate nicely formatted reports, maps, and charts for inclusion in reports and presentation slides
TransModeler boasts a vast and growing array of features that extends well beyond traffic simulators that came before it:
- Map desire lines representing traffic volumes between origin-destination pairs to convey otherwise hidden patterns in simulated trip tables.
- Conduct all your trip table estimation and development efforts inside TransModeler with a comprehensive set of matrix editing and computation tools.
- Compute shortest path matrices among a set of chosen origins and destination s so that, with a trip matrix, you can analyze trip length distributions in wide area models.
- Browse the full list of simulated trips and their paths in a map while filtering and sorting based on origin, destination, path, number of occupants, departure time, or any of a long list of driver, vehicle, and trip tables.
- Define arterial and corridor segments with interactive graphical editing tools to customize segment and corridor level-of-service reports consistent with Highway Capacity Manual definitions.
- Generate colorful and illustrative trip departure and arrival rate histograms.
- Query trip statistics and measures of effectiveness (MOEs) by origin, destination, path, vehicle type, or any combination of driver, vehicle, and trip attributes when generating reports.
- Generate tables, reports, charts, and thematic maps for individual runs or aggregated across multiple runs.
- Compute calibration statistics that characterize goodness of fit over time series data so that you can calibrate your model to match both the average and variance in observed field conditions.
- Dispatch new trips from anywhere in the network or divert trips en route to alternate destinations for modeling incident and hazard response or evacuation scenarios.
- Monitor public transportation service details, including schedule adherence and passenger information, during simulation at the route, stop, or vehicle level.
- Create a full and accurate picture of queues in a way that no other simulation model allows. Use interactive tools to illustrate in a map the ebb and flow of queues as spillback trees that dissipate from the head and that branch in multiple directions upstream over time.
