VISSIM 5.40 User Manual

VISSIM is the leading microscopic simulation program for multi-modal traffic flow modeling. With its unique high level of detail it accurately simulates urban and highway traffic, including cyclists and motorized vehicles. VISSIM is the ideal tool for transportation professionals who want to simulate different traffic scenarios before starting implementation. It thus allows them to find a solution which takes traffic and transportation quality, safety and cost into consideration. As VISSIM combines traffic engineering expertise and state-of-the-art presentation options, even 3D animations, it is not only used by transportation professionals. More and more decision makers and local authorities are choosing VISSIM to convincingly show how effective a projected measure might be, regardless of whether a new road is going to be constructed or a new tram line is being planned. VISSIM therefore offers the unique opportunity to integrate citizens into the decision-making process.
