[sumo-user] Netconvert: importing "extra" OSM attributes

[Sasan Amini <aminissn@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear all,

I have a question regarding the attributes, more specifically 3 attributes, one can import from OSM using NETCONVERT. 

1) loop detectors: I was trying to import the traffic detectors form OSM which I have added manually as monitoring stations using JOSM. But I can't find a way to import them in my network or as an additional file. Is it possible to import them at all?

2) One other issue is the number of lanes. In JOSM one can add a key to differentiate the number of lanes in opposite direction (lanes:backward). But I think NETCONVERT reads only the key "lanes" to get the number of lanes in both directions. 

3) Bus lanes are also defined with a key "lanes:psv" in OSM. However, the vehicle types allowed/disallowed on the lanes are not affected by this key. 

The bigger problem is actually to find a platform where several people can edit large networks together. Any tips on this aside JOSM are much appreciated.  

Best,

Sasan
