osmWebWizard.py#

This script opens a web browser and allows selecting a geographic region on a map. It also provides some controls for specifying random traffic demand for different traffic modes. When clicking the 'Generate'-button, the simulation network for the selected area is built based on OSM data, random demand is generated and sumo-gui is started.

Note

A usage tutorial is available.

All files that make up the scenario are created in a subfolder of the working directory with the current timestamp (i.e. <SUMO_HOME>/tools/2021-02-22-10-00-00/). If you edit the network, you can use the script build.bat to rebuild the random demand.

Call:

python tools/osmWebWizard.py

The script will keep running so you can build multiple scenarios in your web-browser. Stop the script when you're done to free up the port again.

Caution

The script requires the environment variable SUMO_HOME to be set as explained here.

osmGet.py#

This script allows downloading a large area from OpenStreetMap. The area to import can be defined with one of the following options:

  • --bbox defines the box to retrieve in geo coordinates (west,south,east,north),
  • --area allows to define the id of the area to retrieve and
  • --polygon calculates the bounding box from polygon data in the specified file.

Example:

python tools/osmGet.py --bbox <bounding-box> --tiles <INT>

The additional option --tiles allows to split larger areas into multiple tiles and download requests.

osmBuild.py#

The script creates a sumo network from the given osm file (i.e. from the output of osmGet.py). Example:

python tools/osmBuild.py --osm-file <osm-file>

More additional options can be defined to manage the import. Example:

python tools/osmBuild.py --osm-file <osm-file> [--vehicle-classes (all|road|publicTransport|passenger)] [--type-file <TYPEMAP_FILE>] [--netconvert-options <OPT1,OPT2,OPT3>] [--polyconvert-options <OPT1,OPT2,OPT3>]

The option --vehicle-classes allows to filter the roads to import by vehicles classes. If "road" is given as parameter, only roads usable by road vehicles are extracted, if "passenger" is given, only those accessible by passenger vehicles are imported. When selecting "publicTransport" as parameter, only roads usable by road vehicles and public transport are extracted. As default, "all" roads are imported.

When using the option --type-file an additional output file with polygons of rivers and buildings as well as Points of Interest (POIs) will be generated. This can be loaded in sumo-gui for additional visualization. Useful type files can be found at <SUMO_HOME>/data/typemap/.

Additional options for netconvert and polyconvert can be supplied using the options --netconvert-options and -polyconvert-options.

osmTaxiStop.py#

This script import taxi stands from OSM data. Using the option --type you can choose which type of element to add in the SUMO network. For example:

python tools/import/osm/osmTaxiStop.py --osm-file <osm-file> -n <net-file> --type parkingArea

Will add the taxi stands as parkingAreas.
