SUMO (Simulation of Urban MObility)

SUMO (Simulation of Urban MObility) is a computer-based tool used to model and analyze city traffic. It creates virtual road networks and simulates how vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrians move and interact within urban environments. By doing so, it helps transportation planners and researchers assess traffic flow, congestion, and the impact of infrastructure changes or policy decisions without real-world disruptions. SUMO supports detailed customization and can incorporate data on vehicle types, routes, and traffic signals, making it a valuable resource for optimizing traffic management and improving urban mobility.
