Aimsun Live, the decision support system for real-time traffic management that’s at the heart of Singapore’s Land Transport Authority (LTA) technology trial for a real-time traffic simulation and predictive system is being showcased by the Aimsun team at the World Congress.

The recently completed trial evaluated how Aimsun Live’s traffic simulation-based solutions and prediction capabilities could assist LTA in managing Singapore’s traffic conditions faster and more effectively.

This integrated system will support decision-making related to current and future traffic challenges by predicting near-future traffic conditions and then simulating the impact of different traffic response plans to recommend the best plan for implementation.

The system uses traffic data to automatically adjust traffic demands to accurately simulate the on-going recorded demand situation, support historical event evaluation and study the impact of future modes of transportation.

This is also the first system to link Aimsun Live to SCATSIM in Singapore to emulate the actual adaptive traffic signal control of the SCATS system, providing a more accurate representation of the real-time traffic signal operations. Looking to future transport options, this trial also incorporated connected and autonomous vehicles in a mixed-behaviour environment, demonstrating the possibilities of driverless vehicles in the Singapore network.

Aimsun is proud to have participated in this trial and demonstrated its urban mobility solutions.
