Creating missing lane turns for nodes
With this function, you can automatically create lane turns for nodes with two legs. Afterwards each inbound lane has at least one outbound lane turn and each outbound lane has at least one inbound lane turn.
Notes: This modeling process is recommended for SBA assignments or as a preparation for the meso simulation in Vissim. Nodes that were edited with this function do not have the default node geometry any more. If you want to run a micro simulation in Vissim, you should therefore not use this function. |
You can execute the functionality for all, all active nodes, or nodes marked in the network editor.
Editing the attribute values of all or all active nodes
1. If required, set the nodes active for which you want to generate lane turns, via
- the spatial selection (Setting network objects active/passive via the spatial selection) and/or
- filter criteria (Using filters to set network objects active or passive).
The selected nodes are active.
2. In the Network window, right-click the Nodes button.
The Nodes shortcut menu opens.
3. Select Create missing lane turns.
The Create missing lane turns window opens.
4. If necessary, select the Only edit active objects option.
5. Confirm with OK.
The lane turns are created. The user-defined attribute InsertedLaneTurns is set at created lane turns.
Editing marked nodes
1. In the network, mark all nodes for which you want to create lane turns.
2. Right-click in the network display.
A shortcut menu opens.
3. Select the entry Create missing lane turns.
4. Confirm with OK.
The lane turns are created. The user-defined attribute InsertedLaneTurns is set at created lane turns.
Tip: You can also call the function from the shortcut menu of the corresponding list and edit marked objects together. |
