From the beginning, Cube Dynasim was designed with the user in mind. A question always foremost in the mind of the development team is: “How do end users want to work with simulation?” Citilabs has worked hard to minimize the amount of time it takes to effectively build, run, manage, and complete simulation studies.
Dynasim provides four key benefits that make it truly unique.
Dynasim is completely integrated within the Cube system. This provides seamless data transfer from GIS and other databases, other traffic analysis software, as well as the other cube libraries. Learn more about Dynasim’s integration with Cube
Dynasim is a scenario-based simulation. Dynasim offers a completely different user experience than any other simulation providing a way to build, manage, and run an unlimited number of simulation alternatives. Instead of managing directories of redundant simulations, the entire simulation project is built and managed within a single file. A scenario-based simulation system saves users huge amounts of time, effort, and money.
With any microsimulation the numeric results are paramount. But because of the randomness in human behavior, any microsimulation model must be run several times for any particular scenario. Dynasim is unique in that whether the simulation has to be run five, ten, or one-hundred times, the amount of work for the user is the same. Tell Dynasim how many runs to perform and it does the runs, compiles the results, and generates summary statistics.
One of terrific byproduct of microscopic simulation is the animations that provide the analyst and decision makers with a clear understanding of the consequences of alternatives. What makes Dynasim unique is that Cube Dynasim allows users to export and compile animations and results into a single executable file. This DynaViews file may be freely distributed and shared with clients, decision makers, or the public.
