Unit Type

This article is about vehicle units, related to traffic. For units in the context of TQL, see TQL#Building polygons.

Units are the various means of transportation that can be displayed in the 3D Visualization. For the vehicles that are situated on the roads, the units not only complete the visualization of the real life situation, they are also used for visualization of the traffic density calculations (See also: Traffic Model) of the various types of roads. For example, a highway has more units per hours than a brick road. However the units per hour cannot always be visualized. Crossroads are an example of this, the units per hour on a crossroad can be used in the calculation process but are not included in the visualization.

Types of available Units

In the Tygron Platform, there are multiple types of units available. Each type of unit has its own properties consisting of its name, color and whether it is set active in the project.

Editing Units

Editing the amount of units per hour

The amount of units per hour can be edited and is used for displaying traffic overlays in the 3D Visualization.

Editor → Current Situation (Ribbon tab) → Buildings (Ribbon bar) → The Building to edit (Left panel)

How to edit amount of units per hour:

1. Select "Geo Data" in the ribbon header.
2. Select "Buildings" in the ribbon bar.
3. Select "Roads" in the left panel.
4. Select the desired road section in the left panel
5. Change the units per hour in the right panel

• 

  Select Geo Data

• 

  Select Buildings from ribbon bar

• 

  Select 'Roads' from the list

• 

  Select desired road section

• 

  Change the units per hour in the right panel
