Re: [sumo-user] Multimodal Public Transport
|
Hi Jakob,
Thank you very much for your reply. I think your second suggestion (modeling bicycles as slow taxis) makes more sense for my case, so I will follow that approach.
I have a follow-up question.
At the moment, I already have an OD matrix for bicycle trips. In addition, I have GTFS data for bus services.
Do you have any suggestion on how I could merge these two. So that I can model realistic multimodal trips where part of the journey is by bus and the other part by bicycle?
Many thanks for your help.
Best regards,
gkisa
Until this is fixed (possibly this year) there are some limited workarounds:
- starting at home with a bicycle works with modes="public bicycle"
- model shared bicycles as a kind of taxi service (by defining slow taxis that look like bicycles but have vClass=taxi). You might have some empty bicycles moving around but this can be limited by having enough shared bicycles placed at the exit of every public transport stop. (automated routing would work with modes="public taxi").
regards,
Jakob
Hi All,
I'm working on a city-scale simulation that includes multimodal transport within a public transport system. From what I understand from the SUMO documentation (
https://sumo.dlr.de/docs/Simulation/Public_Transport.html), SUMO seems to support only bus, tram, and train as public transport modes.
1. My first question:
Is it possible to define bicycles as a form of public transport in SUMO?
The reason I’m asking is that I’d like to use the <personFlow> and <personTrip> elements with modes="public", like this:
<personFlow id="AB" begin="0" end="3600" probability="0.1">
<personTrip from="-E1" to="-E0" arrivalPos="-20" modes="public"/>
</personFlow>
(source:
https://sumo.dlr.de/docs/Tutorials/PublicTransport.html)
If I can define bicycles as public transport, I’m hoping that persons will be able to automatically choose them as part of the public transport option.
2. My second question:
If the answer to question 1 is no, then is there a way to automatically plan a trip where a person travels from point A to B using, for example, a bus and then a bike ?
Or do I need to create such multimodal trips manually for each person?
Is there a more automated, easier, or smarter way to build these kinds of mixed-mode journeys?
Any help or ideas would be really appreciated!
Have a great weekend!
