MATSim population input and comparison

Export of population to MATSim

Population.xml or Plans.xml (demand)

Eventually each agent in the synthetic population pipeline has the following attributes:

• Personal information: 'person_id', 'trip_today', 'car_avail', 'driving_license'

• Activity information: 'purpose', 'start_time', 'end_time', 'geometry', 'activity_order', 'location_id'

• Travel mode information: 'traveling_mode', 'trip_order'

These attributes are exported to the following format:

<person id="1000367">
	<attributes>
		<attribute name="carAvail" class="java.lang.String">never</attribute>
		<attribute name="hasLicense" class="java.lang.String">no</attribute>
	</attributes>
