Spotlight on: digital traffic flow optimization

PRISMA at the PTV user seminar

In mid-June, PRISMA Managing Director Stefan Kollarits engaged in intensive discussions with experts from the transport industry as part of the PTV user seminar. Every year, planning and engineering projects from the DACH region are presented at this established user meeting.

This year the event took place in the Media Harbor in Düsseldorf. The two days of the event were packed with presentations on a wide range of topics relating to mobility and traffic technology, which culminated in the PRISMA contribution. Stefan Kollarits presented the digital traffic flow optimization for the state capital Stuttgart, which works with tools from our modular software platform TRAFF-X®.

In the analysis process, the TRAFF-X® application area “Traffic Management Strategies” allows environmentally relevant and traffic parameters to be evaluated and problem hotspots to be identified. Coordinated traffic management strategies can then be planned and their effects estimated in advance. The VISSIM simulation model is used to estimate the likely effects of selected strategies and measures. In this way, an ex ante impact assessment can be used to make decisions about the selection and actual implementation of strategies and measures.
