Dynamic Map Platform Co., Ltd. (Head Office: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; CEO & President: Shuichi Yoshimura; “DMP”) is pleased to announce that DMP’s High-Precision 3D Data is now globally available for use in traffic simulation through Model2Go for PTV Vissim (“the product”), newly released by PTV Group (Headquarters: Karlsruhe, Germany; CEO: Christian U. Haas; “PTV”), part of Umovity. This announcement was made during “ITS World Congress 2025” held from August 24 (Sun) to 28 (Thu), 2025, in Atlanta, Georgia, USA.
DMP and PTV have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) in January 2025 for the development of simulation technology in the fields of automotive and transportation engineering and its applications. The announcement made today represents the outcome of this collaboration.
To achieve accurate traffic simulation, it is essential to build precise and realistic road networks for simulators. However, manually creating such models requires a significant amount of time. The product leverages DMP’s centimeter-level High-Precision 3D Data to automatically construct models that can be immediately utilized in PTV’s microscopic-traffic simulator “PTV Vissim.” The product is available in PTV Vissim’s native file format INPX or in the automotive simulation standard network format OpenDRIVE and covers 20 countries, including the USA, Canada, the European Union, the UK, Japan, and South Korea. The product will contribute to improving the efficiency of traffic simulation work in the automotive and traffic engineering fields.
