Integrating Topographical Map Information in SUMO to Simulate Realistic Micromobility Trips

Watch a technical presentation exploring how to integrate elevation data into SUMO (Simulation of Urban MObility) simulations for more accurate modeling of shared micromobility systems in urban environments. Learn about a comprehensive workflow that incorporates topographical information to analyze how terrain characteristics impact e-bicycle and e-scooter usage patterns, energy consumption, and station distribution. Follow along as presenters Andreas Freymann and Damir Ravlija demonstrate the implementation and validation process using Stuttgart, Germany as a case study, showing how to use REST APIs to incorporate elevation data, define vehicle types, and compare energy consumption patterns between flat and hilly terrains. Gain insights into creating more realistic simulations that can help optimize micromobility business operations and reduce urban traffic congestion.
