Simetra helps Rostov-on-Don to develop an intelligent transport system

2020: Delivery of PTV Visum and PTV Vissim

On March 17, 2020 it became known that the SIMETRA company, competence center in the field of modeling of traffic flows and transport planning, delivered in MBU "Center of an Intelligent Transport System" of Rostov-on-Don software packages for transport macro - and micromodelling – PTV Visum and PTV Vissim.

The transport models created by means of the PTV Visum program calculate the forecast of passenger, traffic, cargo flows and estimate effect of implementation of proposed solutions.

The PTV Vissim software package implements the principles of simulation modeling at the microlevel: the solution models in the simulation mode the movement of each car within a road network taking into account the set behavioral models. Thanks to PTV Vissim it is possible to model networks with different node types and to estimate influence of various forms of intersections on capacity, to carry out the analysis of capacity and transport regulation at difficult stops taking into account the movement of trams and buses and another.

Delivery of the PTV Visum and PTV Vissim software products became the next stage in improvement of the city transport system of Rostov-on-Don. Transport models which can be created using the PTV tools will allow to calculate quicker forecasts of passenger and cargo flows, to estimate effect of introduction of routes of passenger transport, construction of outcomes, expansions of the carriageway, told Vladimir Shvetsov, the CEO of SIMETRA company
