Introduction

Welcome to the Koudou wiki!

Koudou (Kōdō) comes from the word 行動（コードー）which means "behavior" in Japanese. This simulator will provide environment and basic agent behavior to simulate a small community based on Open Street Map data. This project was meant to be a more modular design than our previous work, "Epidemicon."

Currently, we envision this project to have two different plugins:

• Epidemic Simulator (Epidemicon v2)
• Evacuation Simulator (Namazu v2)

In the future, we hope to have other types of plugins that can be integrated to our simulator.

Required libraries:

1. numpy
2. osmium
3. haversine

How to execute

• This program creates the map from a Open Street Maps file, so in order to execute it, download it and change the path in the parameters file
• Example for the default parameter: Download the .osm file for the tsukuba area and place it on: osm_files/Tx-To-TU.osm
  • To download the file go to: https://www.openstreetmap.org/export and set the following coordinates:
    • minlat="36.0777000"
    • minlon="140.0921000"
    • maxlat="36.1217000"
    • maxlon="140.1201000"
  • Or download using the API req: https://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/map?bbox=140.0921%2C36.0777%2C140.1201%2C36.1217
• run: $ python main.py -p parameters/default.py
• if you want to run with visualization, add the argument "-v"
