Abstract
This study investigates the feasibility and challenges of transferring traffic signal control schemes from the macroscopic signal timing optimization tool Synchro to the microscopic traffic simulator SUMO, focusing on Downtown Seattle as a case study. The research assesses the process of sharing and importing traffic signal timing plans, a crucial aspect of transportation simulations, between these two platforms. We conduct a detailed analysis of the traffic signal characteristics and data formats unique to each simulator and identify elements suitable for conversion. Subsequently, a four-stage framework is developed for semi-automatic integration of traffic signal control between the two. Our results indicate a successful conversion rate of approximately 85% of signalized intersections from Synchro to SUMO. This research not only illustrates the challenges and solutions in converting signal control across different platforms but also paves the way for future studies aimed at improving the interoperability of various traffic simulation tools.
