Saving vehicle input data to a file

You can record the vehicles that are used with vehicle inputs in the network. Links and vehicle inputs must be defined in the network (Modeling links for vehicles and pedestrians), (Modeling vehicle inputs for private transportation).

You can save the following data and data formats:

Output ASCII file MDB table

A vehicle input evaluation *.fhz contains the following data:

Element Description

File title

Name of evaluation

File

Path and name of network file

Comment

Optional comment from the simulation parameters

Date

Time of evaluation

Vissim

Version number, service pack number, build number

Data block

Data block with the following information:

  • one row per vehicle that enters the Vissim network
  • one column per attribute

The data block of the evaluation file contains the following attributes in this sequence:

Column Description
Time

Simulation second

Link

Number of link on which the vehicle is used.
