Katie DJ

Answer

It means Katie shares with you, for free, data that represents simulated road traffic. You know, vehicles, streets, junctions, traffic lights. Data are generated by an external simulator and Katie makes it available for everyone, without any cost, without any information request. Not even your email is required.

Answer

Data is knowledge, power and ... fun! Here are some things you can do with our data:

• Understand the geometrical connections between roads (quite easy).
• Predict when a congestion will happen (not so easy).
• Predict the future number of vehicles in a given road (challenging).
• Guess the mathematical model that is behind all of it (if you can do this then drop us a line!).

Answer

Data are publicly available via websocket connections open to the world. Moreover, we have built clients for downloading and streaming in real time this data, so that you can download and run your favorite in a few click. Check out this GitHub project.

Answer

This is an experimental platform built for data scientists and researchers. We plan on releasing as many clients as we can, for the most common science-oriented languages (R, MatLab, etc.): at the moment only the Python client is available. We also plan on integrating much more complex simulators than the current one, potentially a microscopic simulator like SUMO.
