This is the original Brinkhoff generator.: http://iapg.jade-hs.de/personen/brinkhoff/generator/
& this is a modified version for higher workloads: http://moto.sourceforge.net/
The modified version does two things as their website says: 1) It takes an ESRI shapefile and produces node- and edge files in the format of the Brinkhoff generator. 2) It takes node- and edge files and generates position and query traces.
I tried esri shape files with the node/edge generator and it does not seem to read it, and the node/edge files provided in the original Brinkhoff website does not work with this version as it includes nodes names.
I get this message: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: No names allowed in nodes!
Does anyone know what esri shape files I can use (and if possible any free downloads?)
How can I remove nodes/edges names from the Brinkhoff node/edge files?
