TUD-SUMO: A research-oriented SUMO wrapper for traffic simulation in python

TUD-SUMO is a Python wrapper for SUMO, a traffic simulation software, designed to support the development of traffic control systems, particularly adaptive systems where data is frequently transferred between a controller and the traffic environment. It provides automated data collection and a set of modular, extensible tools allowing for a wide range of scenarios and control strategies to be simulated and compared. These capabilities are accessed through a simplified interface that enables rapid prototyping of control strategies with complex interactions using minimal code, promoting ease of use and portability. TUD-SUMO has already been employed in multiple projects at Delft University of Technology, including two Horizon Europe projects and 2 transportation engineering courses.
