[sumo-user] Problem with importing Argis

[cchadj01@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hello,
 I have problems importing arcview data for a roadnetwork I need to  
use on SUMO.
 My shapefile contains attributes for the edge ids but lacks  
information for --shapefile.from-id and --shapefile.to-id.

 I leave them blank and run:

 netconvert.exe -v --shapefile-prefix RoadNetwork_Uni -o  
nicosia-road.net.xml --shapefile.street-id OBJECTID  
--shapefile.use-defaults-on-failure

 and the program naturally fails producing this output:

 Loading data from 'RoadNetwork_Uni.shp'...
 Error: Road geometry must be of type 'linestring'.
  Import done:
    278 nodes loaded.
    146 edges loaded.
 Proj projection parameters used: '+proj=utm +zone=36 +ellps=WGS84  
+datum=WGS84 +units=m +no_defs'.
 Quitting (on error).

 The shapefile I have is pretty close to what netconvert wants but  
not quite and I was wondering whether there is any workaround I can do  
to make it eligible for conversion.
 Attached you can find a picture of a sample shapefile record with  
the names of the fields and a sample record and an image from ArcGIS  
Pro on how they are displayed in it.

Thank you,
Tom.
P.S minor "error" in your examples for importing arcview data on  
http://www.sumo.dlr.de/userdoc/Networks/Import/ArcView.html
    On the command
    netconvert -v --shapefile-prefix tl_2008_36061_edges -o net.net.xml \
   --shapefile.from-id TNIDF --shapefile.to-id TNIDT  
--arcview.street-id tlid \
   --shapefile.use-defaults-on-failure
   I'd suggest you change --arcview.street-id to  
--shapefile.street-id as the first is deprecated.
