Exporting static network data

You can export the data of polygons of links and walkable areas from your Vissim network into a *.txt file.

1.  On the File menu, click > Export > 3D Network Geometry.

A window opens.

2.  Enter the desired file name.

3.  Click the Save button.

The data is saved in two data blocks to the *.txt file. There does not necessarily have to be data in both data blocks.

Structure of TXT file

• First row: coordinates used for later calculations of the correct position of polygon points.
• Data block Links for links
• Data block PedestrianAreas for pedestrian areas with coordinates of stairways/ramps and other pedestrian areas

The data blocks consist of a data record for each network object and have the following structure:

"Number of network object", comma-separated [list of coordinates X,Y,Z], new row: g

Example:

[870.10447,7438.97385,0.0]
