Abstract

With the rapidly increasing availability of logistical concepts new tools are required to provide accurate estimations of concept effectiveness to urban planners. In this paper we describe a service-oriented architecture providing automated concept evaluation through agent-based traffic simulation, combining general traffic models with specialized logistical models into singular simulations. Key focus of the paper is the integration architecture utilized to combine the different tools from a previously developed manual workflow. The architecture is designed to incorporate multiple different tools into a combined workflow, providing non-domain users with a highly specialized tool.
