Start a Mobility Simulation in InfraWorks

00:04

Mobility Simulation is an integrated multimodal mobility simulation engine for InfraWorks.

00:10

One way to use Mobility Simulation is to create animated simulations of pedestrian movement.

00:16

In order to launch Mobility Simulation, you must first define a traffic study area.

00:22

Begin in InfraWorks with any model loaded.

00:26

From the Analyze tab, expand the Transportation drop-down and select Mobility Simulation.

00:33

Now, create a traffic study area boundary by creating a polygon containing the area of interest.

00:40

In this instance, a warning dialog displays regarding converting planning roads to component roads within the traffic study area.

00:48

For this example, click No.

00:51

Next, right-click within the traffic study area and select Mobility Simulation.

00:57

Another warning dialog displays.

01:00

This time, the warning alerts you that no intersections are included in the traffic study area.

01:06

Click OK to continue.

01:08

InfraWorks prepares your traffic model for Mobility Simulation.

01:12

Once complete, the traffic model opens in a separate Autodesk InfraWorks Mobility Simulation application window.

01:21

Mobility simulation is a powerful tool to simulate how people and traffic move through environments.
