XenomatiX Scanned Roads
A set of scanned road data from XenomatiX® are available to be used as road models in MotionSolve simulations through the Altair Partner Alliance (APA).
XenomatiX measures and collects precise and up-to-date data of any road network or part of it including local roads, highways, harbor quays, airport runways, or even off-roads. The data is measured using the true solid-state lidar sensor XenoTrack and analyzed in XenoWare road software. For more information on the road tracks, access https://xenomatix.com/lidar/road-data/#
How to use XenomatiX Scanned Roads
Access the Altair MarketPlace (https://marketplace.altairone.com/Marketplace) and download the XenomatiX Road Packages (https://www.altair.com/xenomatix-road-data/).
- .crge: Represents the road by an encrypted .crg file.
- .csv: Contains the road centerline to be used in MotionView events.
- .mdl and .h3d: represents the Graphic System and the Road Graphics to be visualized in MotionView and post-processed in HyperView.
1. Add the Road File into the Model
- In the AutoTire panel, browse and select the .crge for the Road
Property File.
Or in the Event Editor dialog, select Road File under Road selection.
2. Import the Road Graphics
- Select the Model and import the .mdl of
the road package as a system using the Import/Export option.
A Road Graphic System is created containing the .h3d with graphics information of the road.
3. Use the Road Centerline
- To use the road centerline in a MotionView event, create a 3D Cartesian curve entity and select the .csv file within the package.
- In the RoadCourseDrive Event, select the created curve under the Path profile curve option.
