Attributes of static vehicle routes

  • ►  On the Lists menu, click > Private Transport > Routes > Static Routes.

The list of attributes opens.

The attribute and attribute values of this network object type are shown in the list on the left, which consists of two coupled lists.

Note: In lists, you can use the  Attribute selection icon to show and hide attribute values (Selecting attributes and subattributes for columns of a list).

The list on the left may include the following attributes:

Column Description
VehRoutDec

Vehicle routing decision: Number and name of static vehicle routing decision of vehicle route

Formula

Click on the icon . The Formula window opens. Enter the desired formula: Operand can be an attribute and attribute value of the vehicle or the vehicle route to specify the share of vehicles in this vehicle route.

Only active if in the Static Vehicle Routing Decisions list, the route choice method Formula is selected. The Formula attribute is independent from time intervals.

If the formula accesses the parking state or results of evaluations of parking spaces, parking lots, parking lot groups or parking routes, these values stem from the previous time step.

No

Number of static vehicle route

Name

Designation

DestLink

Destination link: Number and name of link on which the static vehicle route ends

DestPos

Destination position: Distance between destination section and beginning of link or connector

RelFlow

Relative volume in time interval = absolute volume in time interval: Sum of the volumes of all time intervals Only active if in the Static vehicle routing decision list, the route choice method Static is selected. The sum of all relative volumes is 100 %, on this basis Vissim calculates the absolute shares.

Showing and editing dependent objects as relation

1.  In the list on the left, click the desired entry.

The list on the right contains attributes and attribute values of network objects, and/or base data allocated to the network object selected in the list on the left (Using coupled lists):

2.  On the list toolbar, in the Relations list, click > Link sequence.

Attributes of link sequence are displayed: Numbers of links and connectors the static vehicle route traverses (Attributes of links):

3.  On the list toolbar, in the Relations list, click the desired entry.

4.  Enter the desired data.

Notes:

  • Relative volumes: Relative volumes of a route must correspond to their absolute volumes. However, for example, numerous turn volume calculations can deviate at subsequent intersections. Therefore vehicles in the network are neither inserted nor removed automatically. You must secure consistent data for modeling real scenarios.
  • Instead of absolute values, Vissim uses relative shares in order to determine the traffic volume for destination sections of a routing decision. Thereby real volume values and percentage shares can be entered. Internally, Vissim totals the relative volume and calculates the absolute share of each flow automatically.
