The capabilities of OmniTRANS Powered by Bentley OpenPaths
-
Mobility analyses at target group level
The Population Synthesizer simulates a synthetic population based on attributes such as gender, age, ethnicity, and income. This enables target group-oriented mobility analyses.
-
Innovative junction modelling
Advanced calculations based on the latest scientific insights, suitable for junctions with more than four arms and including cycling and slow traffic. This results in more realistic modelling of traffic flow and route choice in urban and regional networks.
-
Traffic modelling at the level of individual people
Our Octavius micro-demand modelling technique simulates trip chains at the individual level, incorporating the context of mobility choices. This allows concepts such as P+R and shared mobility to be modelled realistically.
-
Route choice models for road traffic
State-of-the-art assignment models designed for networks with structural congestion: Dynameq for operational use, and STAQ and semi-dynamic STAQ for strategic use.
-
Public transport modelling
For modelling of public transport, a new assignment model is available, based on Optimal Strategies, offering a stronger scientific foundation.
Powerful, comprehensive and flexible traffic modelling software
OmniTRANS Powered by Bentley OpenPaths combines advanced functionalities with person-level modelling – representing individual travellers – to deliver realistic and reliable results. This reliability is crucial for ensuring confidence in decision-making outcomes.
The software is designed for efficiency: it uses memory resources effectively, performs calculations quickly and offers intelligent modelling tools. As a result, model development time is significantly reduced.
OmniTRANS Powered by Bentley OpenPaths can be applied in a wide range of contexts – from operational studies on small-scale networks to strategic analyses at regional and national level.
With a single licence, you gain access to the complete suite of features, including EMME and CUBE. This makes OmniTRANS Powered by Bentley OpenPaths one of the most advanced and versatile traffic modelling solutions available today. Its modern software environment also makes it easy to test and adopt new, innovative modelling techniques.
Visualising mobility data with OmniTRANS Analytics
Our online application, OmniTRANS Analytics, makes it possible to clearly visualise mobility data from traffic models on interactive maps. This makes analysis, monitoring and collaboration easier, and contributes to high-quality mobility insights. OmniTRANS Analytics is very straightforward to use.
