Description:
This package generates scene infrastructure, including road and walkway meshes, using OpenStreetMap data. It also simulates traffic and pedestrians, with realistic traffic signal logic and peer-reviewed car-following and lane-changing models. The scene generator can create detailed 3D models of roads and walkways within a specified location box, and the simulation can be controlled down to the level of individual vehicles and pedestrians.

The package includes a code library for controlling the simulation, and optional terrain and aerial image decoration from Mapbox. The scene generator runs on Windows, Mac, and Linux, while the simulation runs on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, and iOS.

The Lite version of the package has some limitations, including a maximum map area of 100 Ha (1 km x 1 km square). However, it still includes all the core features of the full package, including traffic and pedestrian simulation, and realistic traffic signal logic.

The package requires an internet connection to download OpenStreetMap and terrain data, but no connection is required once the data is downloaded and the scene is built. A Mapbox account is not required to run the package, but it is necessary to use the optional terrain and aerial image decoration feature.
Technical Details:
Features of Scene Generator:
* Import data from OpenStreetMap (OSM) from anywhere on earth
* OSM Import includes roads, walkways, building and water outlines
* Digital elevation imported from Mapbox to build a terrain surface with holes for tunnels
* Roads fitted to terrain, terrain modified where road gradients would be excessive
* All intersections created automatically, including roundabouts, at-grade (single-level) and grade-separated (multi-level)
* Sidewalks, footpaths and pedestrian crossings created

Features of Simulator:
* Multi-threaded implementation, makes full use of multiple cores
* Uses peer-reviewed car-following and lane-changing models
* Realistic traffic signal logic automatically created for all junctions marked as signalized in OSM
* Pedestrians simulated walking between points of interest
* Support for two-part articulated vehicles in addition to single-part fixed vehicles
* A few simple prefabs for vehicle models and a single basic animated ped are included

System Requirements:
* Scene generator runs in Unity Editor on Windows/Mac/Linux
* An internet connection is required to download OSM and terrain data. No connection is required once data is downloaded and scene built.
* Simulation runs locally on Windows/Mac/Linux/Android/iOS

Optional Terrain and Aerial Images from Mapbox:
* A MapBox account is not required to run this package. You can choose to enable this feature if you want to create a terrain based on satellite elevation data, textured with an aerial image.
* If you decide to use this option to decorate the terrain, you will probably not incur any charges. At the date of this release, there is a generous free tier, a charge would be incurred only if you exceed this free tier.
* If you do not register a Mapbox account, the only difference you will see is that the underlying terrain will be flat, and will be rendered with a plain texture of your choice.
