CORSIM Animation, One-Touch HCS Analysis
TRANSYT-7F
has the ability to import existing CORSIM input files. However,
if no CORSIM file exists yet, TRANSYT-7F also
offers "one-touch" CORSIM animation (i.e., CORSIM file export). This pre-processing feature creates NETSIM
networks from scratch, and is available for either the entire
TRANSYT-7F
network, or for individual intersections. To
create a CORSIM input file that reflects an entire
TRANSYT-7F
network, click on the "CORSIM Animation" icon on the TRANSYT-7F
toolbar, or select "File > CORSIM > View animation for this
network". To create a CORSIM input file
that reflects
one intersection only, simply right-click on an intersection in the Map
View,
and select "CORSIM > View animation for this node".
If the user doesn't
wish to view animation, CORSIM input and/or output files can optionally
be
generated without launching animation.
It
is also possible to right-click on an intersection in the Map View and
view HCS
results for that intersection. If the
HCS file already exists, it will be opened automatically by HCS+.
If not, an HCS file will be created instantly by a data
conversion
program, and this brand-new file will be opened automatically by HCS+.
Timing plans can also
be exported from TRANSYT-7F
to HCS within the Timing View screen.
