# Simulation/Output

SUMO allows to generate a large number of different measures. All write the values they collect into files or a socket connection following the common rules for writing files. Per default, all are disabled, and have to be triggered individually. Some of the available outputs (raw vehicle positions dump, trip information, vehicle routes information, and simulation state statistics) are triggered using command line options, the others have to be defined within "additional files".

Below, the available outputs are listed, joined into groups of topic/aggregation type. Further information about each output can be found by following its link.

- vehicle-based information, unaggregated
  - raw vehicle positions dump: all vehicle positions over time
    contains: positions and speeds for all vehicles for all simulated time steps
    used for: obtaining movements of nodes (V2V, for ns-2)
  - vehicle type probe: positions of vehicles over time for a certain vehicle type (or all vehicles)
  - emission output: emission values of all vehicles for every simulation step
  - full output: various informtations for all edges, lanes and vehicles (good for visualisation purposes)
  - vtk output: generates Files in the well known VTK (Visualization Toolkit) format, to show the positions the speed value for every vehicle
  - fcd output: Floating Car Data includes name, position, angle and type for every vehicle

- simulated detectors
  - inductive loop detectors: simulated induction loops
  - instant induction loops: simulated unaggregated induction loops
  - areal detectors: lanearea detectors - simulated vehicle tracking cameras
  - entry/exit detectors: simulated entry/exit detectors

- values for edges or lanes
  - edgelane traffic: edge/lane-based network performace measures
  - edgelane hbefa: edge/lane-based vehicular pollutant emission; based on the HBEFA database
  - Simulation/Output/Lane- or Edge-based Noise Measures: edge/lane-based vehicular noise emission; based on Harmonoise
  - queue output: lane-based calculation of the actual tailback in front of a junction

- vehicle-based information
  - trip information: aggregated information about each vehicle's journey
  - vehicle routes information: information about each vehicle's routes over simulation run

- simulation(network)-based information
  - simulation state statistics: information about the current state of the simulation

- traffic lights-based information
  - traffic light states: information about the state (lights) of a traffic light
  - stream-based traffic light switches: information about the switches of a traffic light signal responsible for a certain link
  - traffic light states, by switch: information about the states (lights) of a traffic light signal, written only when changed
  - areal detectors coupled to tls: simulated vehicle tracking cameras triggered by tls
