Presentation Topics

What’s new in Aimsun Next 24

New features focus on enhancing productivity and the building of large-scale, multi-modal models for cities, highways, and regions.

Tessa gives a run-through of the latest additions, and explains how they can help you with anything from accurately estimating the volume of traffic using toll roads, to analysing how a change in signal timings or the bus schedule might benefit pedestrians.

The benefits of subscription-based licensing

Justyna will demonstrate how access to the new myAimsun portal opens the door to autonomous license management for our clients and makes it easy to assign licenses to the active users working on a project.

The flexibility of subscription-based licensing brings greater cost effectiveness and also gives our users the option of  working on remote desktop and cloud computers.

Aimsun data services and applications

We’ll look at the benefits of links to continuous data for efficient model rebasing.  Carles will use the model of Greater Manchester in the UK to demonstrate the link to  data sources such as  SCOOT traffic flows (from the UTC system), Bus AVL data and Automatic Traffic Counters.  

Linking an Aimsun  model to continuous data sources can enable semi-automatic model updates, which greatly increase efficiency while maintaining accuracy and forming the  architectural starting point for real-time traffic management in the future.

Training Course

Scripting refresher course and modelling clinic

Tessa Hayman
Product Specialist

Tuesday, 19th November 2024

This day is dedicated to hands-on practice with Aimsun Next.

The first part of the day is about Scripting in Aimsun Next. Scripting is a powerful means of modifying a model, importing or exporting data and calculating and displaying results. Tessa will show you how Aimsun Next scripts can dramatically increase your efficiency, so to take this course you should have a reasonable level of familiarity with Python and the concepts of programming. 

Please note that this Scripting course does not cover the API module and functions – the key difference to remember is that Scripting allows you to make static changes before the simulation starts or after the simulation is finished, while with API, you can make dynamic changes while the dynamic simulation is running.

The Modelling Clinic is where we invite you to bring in your broken models or modelling problems. Tessa will hold an open clinic where we’ll work together to troubleshoot and fix them.
