The World Cup of Traffic Software

Given the wide range of traffic software currently available on the market, a common decision faced by traffic engineers is the type of software program that should be used on their project. On February 11, 2010, Luigi Casinelli of HDR helped answer this important question with a presentation to the Long Island Branch on "The World Cup of Traffic Software." He explained how to select from the numerous number of traffic software programs and when it was more cost effective to use one type of software over the other for particular projects.

Mr. Casinelli also showed examples using HCS+, Synchro, and VISSIM, concluding his presentation with an interactive quiz for the group. Overall, it was a very informative and fun presentation.
