Create results reports in InfraWorks Mobility Simulation

Create reports of various types to organize and review your InfraWorks Mobility Simulation. model results.


00:03

In InfraWorks Mobility Simulation, you can create various types of reports to organize and review simulation results.

00:11

You can save these reports as XLS or CSV files, to be shared or printed as needed.

00:18

Begin with an InfraWorks Mobility Simulation model open.

00:23

For this example, a previously defined multimodal train simulation is shown.

00:28

The first thing you need to do is to configure where the results will be saved.

00:34

From the ribbon, expand the Reporting drop-down, which includes a list of reporting types.

00:40

In this case, click Results.

00:42

This opens the Results dialog, where you can configure the type of results, results timing, summary tables, and tools.

00:51

Save No Results is the default, because most results are dynamic and update as the simulation progresses.

00:58

If you want digital or printed results, you must choose a file type and a point in the simulation, and then manually save the results.

01:07

For this example, enable Save as XLS files in Resources.

01:12

This activates other configuration options for you to select from.

01:17

For this example, under Tools/Plugins, enable JPEG Snapshots.

01:23

Click Close.

01:25

Reporting results are saved in the Results folder within your model folder.

01:30

In this case, the Results folder is in the Train_sim_test_Resources folder and is currently empty.

01:37

Now, with the results file type and location specified, you can create a report.

01:43

From the ribbon, select Reporting > Service Vehicle Trips to open the Service Vehicle Trips dialog.

01:50

In the matrix, reporting criteria are listed under Measure, and the results columns are blank, because the simulation is not playing.

01:59

In the Traffic Analyst panel, on the Simulation tab, click Play to run the simulation,

02:04

and you now see results dynamically updating in the matrix as the simulation progresses.

02:10

To choose the point at which you want to create the report, after letting it run for several seconds, click Pause.

02:17

Then, in the Service Vehicle Trips dialog box, click Save.

02:22

To view the results, open your Results folder, and you see a new folder with a name that includes the simulation, date, and time.

02:31

Open the folder to access the saved results file in the XLS format specified earlier.

02:38

Double-click it to view tabbed results in Excel.

02:41

In this example, the report includes public transport summary statistics and transport details.

02:48

Displaying results in report format allows you to easily access and manipulate data,

02:54

if necessary, within your InfraWorks Mobility Simulation model.
