TRAFFIX – the Comprehensive Intersection Analysis and TIA Tool
A member of the world’s most comprehensive transportation planning and traffic engineering software suite, TRAFFIX Powered by VISUM is a comprehensive traffic impact analysis (TIA) and intersection analysis tool. As the name implies, TRAFFIX is built within the VISUM software platform providing users with a powerful network data model, graphical editing, analysis and reporting tools.
TRAFFIX Powered by VISUM integrates tools for all typical TIA tasks within a single user interface.The TRAFFIX Navigator has been developed to guide the analyst efficiently through all common model building and analysis steps to greatly enhance productivity. Maps and Reports! Users can display results with compelling graphic output and all TRAFFIX reports can be output in spreadsheet format using MS EXCEL® or OpenOffice format for convenient integration with report preparation. Go Green - TRAFFIX Powered by VISUM supports green house gas (GHG) emission analysis!
