Hi all,
I have two shapefiles: one containing road information (including ID, start and end nodes, speed, etc.) and another with just bus stops (ID, longitude, and latitude). I have a few questions:
1- Is netconvert capable of merging these two separate shapefiles into a single SUMO network (.net) file?
Although the shapefiles were initially downloaded from OSM (Geofabrik), I have made some modifications by deleting many roads and stops, keeping only the primary and secondary roads, along with the bus stops on those roads.
2- I’m wondering if the --ptline-output option in netconvert will work in this case. If not, what would you suggest for generating PT routes (i.e., sampleRoutes.rou.xml)?
I also have traffic count data (for cars and buses) from detectors.
3- Once I generate the sampleRoutes.rou.xml for buses, I’m considering using routeSampler.py to create the final PT routes. Would you recommend this approach?
Thank you for your help!
Sincerely,
