SUMO
is an open source, microscopic and continuous road traffic simulation
package designed to handle large road networks. The advantage is that
it is open source. In this post, we will follow the steps to install
SUMO on Ubuntu. The version we will install is Version 0.18.
The
SUMO site is at the following location:
The downloads link provides the links
to download and install the software.
We will install a pre-compiled binary
to get started. To install the software on Ubuntu, we need to add the
repository to the apt package using the following command.
$ sudo add-apt-repository
ppa:sumo/stable
Entering gives several prompts for
entering the password and confirming the installation.
Next, we need to install the sumo,
sumo-tools and sumo-doc packages on our machine.
$ sudo
apt-get install sumo sumo-tools sumo-doc
Entering the command downloads the
files and prompts to start installation on the machine.
After clicking yes, SUMO is installed
on the machine.
To check, open a new terminal window or
within the same window, type the following command, and we can see
the results from the program.
$ sumo --help
There we go, we have installed SUMO on
our machine.
Happy simulating
