starling-sim 1.0.0

Agent-based framework for mobility simulation

Starling is an agent-based framework for mobility simulation implemented in Python. The framework provides users with tools to quickly develop agent-based simulators of a specific transport service. Among these tools, there is a number of generic transport classes that can be used in several transport contexts, accessible input and output formats (JSON, GeoJSON) with JSON schema specifications, visualisation and KPI outputs, etc.

Starling also comes with three simulation models :

• A free-floating vehicle-sharing service

• A station-based vehicle-sharing service

• A station-based vehicle-sharing service with repositioning

For now, Starling is not adapted to be used as a package : users should rather clone the project locally to develop and run new simulations.
