SUMO is a free and open traffic simulation suite which is available since 2001. SUMO allows modelling of intermodal traffic systems including road vehicles, public transport and pedestrians.

  • This simulator has many options to customise the simulation, options like CO2 emissions on roads, speed limits of the roads etc
  • The data for simulation is taken from the OpenStreetMap

Steps to simulate traffic of a particular region.

Step 1: Download OSM data from Open Street Maps (<file_name>.osm)

Step 2: Run this command to get the .net file required for simulation. (Netconvert imports digital road networks from different sources and generates road networks that can be used by other tools from this package.)

netconvert --osm-files <file_name>.osm -o <file_name>.net.xml --output.street-names true --output.original-names true

Step 3: From the following link copy the additional polygons structures

http://sumo.dlr.de/wiki/Networks/Import/OpenStreetMap

Step 4: Save the data into a file and name it as ‘typemap.xml’ then run the following command. (Polyconvert imports geometrical shapes (polygons or points of interest) from different sources, converts them to a representation that may be visualized using SUMO-GUI)

polyconvert --net-file <file_name>.net.xml --osm-files <file_name>.osm --type-file typemap.xml -o <file_name>.poly.xml

python /Applications/sumo-0.23.0/tools/trip/randomTrips.py -n <file_name>.net.xml -e 100 -l

python /Applications/sumo-0.23.0/tools/trip/randomTrips.py -n <file_name>.net.xml -r <file_name>.rou.xml -e 100 -l

  • After the above steps, the routes have been generated, in the xml file you need to configure the file for the SUMO gui

Step 5: Search for the sumo.cfg file in the sumo folder and copy it to your working folder.

The configuration file should be modified with the following contents:

</input>

Step 6: To run the simulator

sumo-gui <file_name>.sumo.cfg

Outcome

sumo

  • Helps one understand how each tag that we use impacts the traffic.
  • Helps in, in-depth analysis of the road network that’s established by the OSM data.
  • It by default simulates right-hand driving traffic conventions and has no options for left-hand driving conventions.

great writeup

Thanks for sharing! I just did some experiments with the eWorld frontend and OSM. But wasn’t that amazing :-) osm.wiki/Simulators

Can you simulate buss traffic from osm buss routes ?

Komentář od jinalfoflia z 7. 08. 2015 v 08:25

@pratikyadav Thanks!

@!i! Oh! Seems interesting, will surely check that out. Thank you!

@onion I haven’t tried it though, it seems to be possible to simulate bus traffic from OSM bus routes.

I would be interested to know, if SUMO can benefit from alle the POIs that we tag at OSM? For example can a school be detected and used within the simulation? (e.g. n % of parents drive to school during 6:00…7:00am?)

Komentář od PlaneMad z 7. 08. 2015 v 12:07

Looks very interesting Jinal. Also found some more tutorials that could come in handy to learn how this can be used in some real world scenarios. Pretty cool software!

Komentář od jinalfoflia z 10. 08. 2015 v 09:08

@!i! We can add the POIs by using the additional polygons, but i’m uncertain about the simulator detecting it.

We can manually simulate the area around the required POIs. (for eg. School, this can be done with some approximate numbers as to n% of parents , one can simulate the traffic scenario near a school and predict some improvements accordingly)

@PlaneMad Thank you for the tutorials!

@jinalfoflia Thanks for the answer. I’m not sure, but if I remember correctly, than eWorld is able to synthesize such polygons automaticaly. Also they feature to add e.g. weather anomalies etc. But to be honest, I have no idea about the realism of such enriched simulations ;-)

Good introduction to SUMO. In your NetCONVERT-Command, you can use ‘–tls-join true’ to prevent SUMO from having red-light-stop-positions in the middel of your junction, making the traffic-flow collapse very fast.

Look for the right additional configuration here: http://sumo.dlr.de/wiki/NETCONVERT#Configuration

@KVLA-HRO-Mei I’ll surely check out eWorld. Thank you :)

@bob_sim This was really helpful, will surely try it to make simulation better. Thank you.

OK, this is a total pisser from a Debian perspective…can’t seem to get traffic generated.

I have followed the above process and trying to generate random route using osm.map. my system variable is set for python.I used manual path for randomTrips.py in windows 7 following the above.

current_dir>python D:\source\sumo-0.21.0\tools\trip\randomTrips.py -n gerching.net.xml -e 100 -l

the above line worked and created trips.trips xml file. i have following files now in current_dir: gerching.net gerching.osm gerching.poly typemap trips.trips

current_dir>python D:\source\sumo-0.21.0\tools\trip\randomTrips.py -n gerching.net.xml -r gerching.rou.xml -e 100 -l calling D:\source\sumo-0.21.0\tools\trip....\bin\duarouter -n gerching.net.xm l -t trips.trips.xml -o gerching.rou.xml –ignore-errors –begin 0 –end 50.0 – no-step-log Traceback (most recent call last): File “D:\source\sumo-0.21.0\tools\trip\randomTrips.py”, line 209, in main(get_options()) File "D:\source\sumo-0.21.0\tools\trip\randomTrips.py", line 205, in main subprocess.call(args) File "C:\Python27\lib\subprocess.py", line 522, in call return Popen(*popenargs, **kwargs).wait() File "C:\Python27\lib\subprocess.py", line 710, in __init__ errread, errwrite) File "C:\Python27\lib\subprocess.py", line 958, in _execute_child startupinfo) WindowsError: [Error 2] The system cannot find the file specified

It does not create any file for the above command. How to solve it? Thanks in advance

Hi, I try to install SUMO and when I type the command “netconvert” it is not identified by my cmd. Any A solution please .

I got

netconvert –osm-files map.osm -o map.net.xml –output.street-names true –output.original-names true Error: Could not open osm-file ‘map.osm’. Error: No nodes loaded. Quitting (on error).

how to solve it?

Thanks for sharing. Do you have any idea that how we can implement the GSM wireless traffic with SUMO?

Komentář od khanali z 11. 01. 2018 v 11:33

Please help me.. i imported OSM Map to sumo and they correctly simulate means the vehicles runs correctly but i want to calculate vehicle start to end time during simulation from source to destination ??? so how i calculate vehicle trip time from source to destination ???
