Hello Every one,

Can some please list the comparison of synchro 6 and synchro 7. How is synchro 7 better than 6 and is there any difference in 6 and 7 when it comes to analysis of intersections and results...
This informations will help me if i need to convince my boss in getting me a synchro 7 license ....

Thank you

one of the options I like in synchro 7 that you don't have in 6 is the ability to change the lane alignment. this can really help in simulating some more complex intersections.

I was looking for this kind of topic!

I'm very interested in a direct comparison between the 2 versions. How do LOS, delay, and other MOEs compare between them?

We have a big project that we started with Version 6. If we change mid-project to Version 7, must we plan on re-doing all delay and LOS charts, or are delays the same between the two versions?

Any input would be great - thanks!

Hi RebeccaG,

There is always a chance that values could change between version 6 and 7. In fact, I would assume that they will. Most likely your Synchro results will be close. But, there have been changes noted here:

Many of the changes are for simulation modeling, other visual. The visual end is the look in Synchro which helps to troubleshoot as you enter data (you see the geometry as you enter).

From the simulation side, there are a items to improve how you can calibrate these. Your best bet is to go to http://www.trafficware.com/assets/pdfs/GettingStarted.pdf and get the Getting Started document. There is a section on What's New that will show the new features.

Thanks,

John.

Thank you
