Question

How to import files from CUBE to Visum?

Answer

Since Visum 12.5 the AddIn "Import Cube Network" is available in:
Scripts -> VisumAddIn -> Import.

The import of CUBE considers the following network objects:
- Nodes, Areas, Lines, Connectors and PuT lines. Additionally, Turn attributes like penalties and prohibited Turns can be imported.
Required files:
1) SHP files for nodes (including shx, dbf files).
2) SHP files for lines (including shx, dbf files).

Further files (optional):
1) ASCII text file for turn time penalties and prohibited turns.
2) Cube PuT line file (*.lin) in ASCII format (+ve node numbers mark stop points, where boarding and alighting is permitted).
