Using 2D/3D model distributions

You can use a 2D/3D model distribution instead of a single model for vehicles or pedestrians of a given type.

If you want to use only one model for all objects of a type, you must still define a 2D/3D model distribution. You assign only one model to this 2D/3D model distribution.

In a 2D/3D model distribution you can use non-zero proportions to assign the desired 2D/3D models. The absolute share of Vissim is calculated automatically as a ratio of the individual relative share to the sum of all shares.

You can define a vehicle or pedestrian model by selecting a 3D model file. This automatically defines all geometry data, such as the length and width or the positions of axles and clutches. If you do not select a 3D model file, you can enter the geometry data manually. Models of this sort are shown as blocks in the network.

Some typical 2D/3D model distributions are predefined.
