Eclipse SUMO

Eclipse SUMO (Simulation of Urban MObility) is an open source, highly portable, microscopic, and continuous multi-modal traffic simulation package. It is designed to handle large networks and offers a wide range of features. SUMO allows for the modelling of intermodal traffic systems, including road vehicles, public transport, and pedestrians. It comes with a wealth of supporting tools for tasks such as route finding, visualization, network import, and emission calculation. Users can enhance SUMO with custom models and use various APIs to remotely control the simulation. The tool also enables the integration of automated vehicles and the implementation and evaluation of C2X communication technologies. It allows for the modelling of traffic management elements like video detectors and induction loops, as well as microscopic simulation of individual objects. SUMO supports the combination of different modes of transportation and provides online interaction to control the behavior of simulation objects. It offers features like modifying traffic light schedules, generating demand profiles, and boosting simulation performance. SUMO is portable and can be used on various platforms. Being open source, it can be used and modified according to users' needs. The SUMO User Conference, held annually in Berlin, is a significant event for the SUMO community. The future development of SUMO is shaped by the openMobility Interest Group at the Eclipse Foundation, with several partners from industry and academia collaborating towards a common mobility simulation platform.
