Traffic Planning
In order to ensure mobility in cities with a minimum impact on the environment and inhabitants, we are working on customized solutions worldwide to manage a variety of traffic-flow scenarios. The traffic systems of cities and urban centers, with their multifaceted interdependencies and complex processes, require efficient traffic planning and development work to achieve optimization. Siemens offers a broad range of products to attain that goal.
SITRAFFIC P2 – Planning Workplace
The traffic engineer workplace SITAFFIC P2 is a modern planning instrument that can be operated intuitively, and so permits quick on-the-job training. SITRAFFIC P2 offers targeted traffic project management through specific controlling devices and traffic computers as well as completely unrestricted planning without the need for special hardware or controlling procedures. The system offers support for the traffic engineer at all stages of planning.
VISSIM – Simulation
The simulation tool VISSIM was developed for traffic both within and outside cities, and is therefore suitable for many areas of application. VISSIM models traffic processes at critical junctions and within networks in more detail than comparable simulators. All motorized traffic elements and even crossing pedestrians are taken into consideration.
SITRAFFIC Q2 – Quality Analysis
The reliable functioning of intelligent traffic regulation systems requires meticulous planning, project management, and controlling of traffic functions as well as a high-quality analysis of traffic processes. It is necessary to monitor the operability of certain system components continuously and automatically, and to generate appropriate notifications in the event of deviations from the norm. Operability monitoring is an important application area for SITRAFFIC Q2.
Forecasting Solutions
Siemens offers solutions for predicting and defining traffic conditions, forecasting future traffic densities, calculating and predicting travel times, and generating complete traffic reports.
SITRAFFIC for Traffic-Based Controlling
Traffic-based controlling integrates the current traffic conditions into the switching function of signal systems, which helps improve traffic flow. The generation of traffic-based controlling programs formerly involved enormous effort. SITRAFFIC Language enables traffic planners to transfer complex traffic tasks into a program code, with no knowledge of a programming language. Powerful logic detectors assist in formulating the logical conditions. Various module libraries offer pre-developed solutions for a spectrum of traffic problems. All users need to do is provide parameters for the functions, and the results are made available for further processing.
