Checking the import results

After the import of the OSM data, you should carry out some plausibility checks.

Applying a classified display

A simple plausibility check of the imported data can be achieved by a classified display of link types/categories in the imported network. Make sure, that the folder with the configuration files contains a Visum graphic parameters file with a matching file name or use one of the provided configuration sets. If a suitable graphic parameters file is available, it is loaded automatically after the import. If you have not saved a suitable graphic parameters file, you can classify the display of the network manually (Displaying classified objects based on attribute values).

Calculating a shortest path search

Another step of the plausibility check is the calculation of shortest paths in the imported network on a random basis. They should follow plausible routes (Searching for and displaying shortest paths).

Evaluating protocol files

In Visum log files, essential steps of the import process and possible error messages are logged(Using protocol files).
