Roads are represented in the Tygron Platform the in the following ways:

  • Roads are generally represented by Buildings, with a Road Function.
  • A road is assigned to one of these categories: ROAD, BRIDGE, INTERSECTION or UNDERGROUND.
  • Roads are represented by MultiPolygons, stored in Sections.

Trucks per hour NUM_TRUCKS vehicles/h 0 to 1.7976931348623157E308 How many trucks move over any given cross-section of the road per hour, spread across all lanes.
Vans per hour NUM_VANS vehicles/h 0 to 1.7976931348623157E308 How many vans move over any given cross-section of the road per hour, spread across all lanes.
Airplanes per hour NUM_AIRPLANES vehicles/h 0 to 1.7976931348623157E308 How many airplanes move over the given air traffic route, per hour.

Speedlimit TRAFFIC_SPEED km/h 0 to 1.7976931348623157E308 How fast vehicles move on this building. This is only relevant for roads, intersections, and bridges. This affects the visualization, and the calculations for the Traffic Noise Overlay.
Lanes TRAFFIC_LANES integer -1.7976931348623157E308 to 1.7976931348623157E308 How many lanes of traffic there are on this road. A negative value causes vehicles to move in the opposite direction. This is only relevant for roads, intersections, and bridges. This only affects the visualization.

Visualization

  • Names of large roads are shown as Labels in the 3D Visualization when the zoom level of the camera is sufficiently close.
  • The amount and speed of traffic units depend on the values of the road attributes;
  • The type of traffic shown on a road depends on both:
