TSIS is an integrated development environment that enables users to conduct traffic operations analysis.  Built using a component architecture, TSIS is a toolbox that contains tools that allow the user to define and manage traffic analysis projects, define traffic networks and create inputs for traffic simulation analysis, execute traffic simulation models, and interpret the results of those models.

Capabilities of TSIS-CORSIM include:

  • Verification and validation of other software
  • Surrogate for field data collection
  • Public presentation and demonstration
  • Land use traffic impact studies and access management studies
  • Freeway and surface street interchanges
  • Signal timing and signal coordination
  • Emergency vehicles and signal pre-emption
  • Freeway weaving sections, lane adds and lane drops
  • Bus stations, bus routes, carpools and taxis
  • Ramp metering and HOV lanes
  • Unsignalized intersections and signal warrants
  • Incident detection and management
  • Queuing studies involving turn pockets and queue blockage
  • Toll plazas and truck weigh stations
  • Origin-destination traffic flow patterns
  • Statistical output post-processing
  • Run-time extension (RTE) for researchers
  • Simulation of right-hand drive or left-hand drive
  • Import files from HCS (Signals, Unsignal, Interchanges, Freeways, Ramps, Weaving)
  • Import files from TRANSYT-7F, to quickly generate a network with dozens of signalized intersections
  • Export files to TRANSYT-7F, for signal timing optimization and post-processing
Extensive HTML-based electronic documentation is available for free within the TSIS package.  Context-sensitive help is available on numerous software screens.  Users guides in Acrobat (PDF) format are available on the installation CD.
