Agent-Based Simulator for Travelers Multimodal Mobility

Transport systems are more and more complex and have to evolve to integrate more connected entities (mobile devices, localized vehicles, etc.). It becomes critical to develop micro-simulation tools for mobility policies makers taking into account this fact. In this paper, we propose a multimodal travel simulator that allows for the understanding and the prediction of future status of the networks and allows for testing new online applications. The application simulates the movements of travelers on the different networks while taking into account the changes in travel times and the status of the networks. The considered transport modes include pedestrians, private cars, all public transport modes and ridesharing. The simulator has been developed using the Repast Simphony R © multiagent simulation platform.
