Multimodal transportation And Land-Use Modeling Software

Predictive Modeling And Simulation Of Transportation

Develop and apply predictive multimodal transportation models, as part of a city’s overall digital twin, to simulate how changes in infrastructure, operations, technology, and demographics will impact movement and accessibility of a given area.

What is CUBE?

CUBE is a flexible and efficient modeling software to analyze the effects of new projects and policies on a city’s transportation network, land-use, and its population. CUBE is a desktop interface to link between the model, the data, and Geographic Information System (GIS) in a single click, making the development and application of your models easy to use.

Make Informed Decisions

  • Easily visualize, test and compare multiple scenarios in one application
  • Advise on the suitability of planning and design decisions to support business cases
  • Uncover hidden consequences before going ahead with investment decisions

Accelerate Project Delivery

  • Use simple flow charts to group processes and quickly complete tasks
  • Access to libraries of functions to save time when developing models
  • Flexible integration with third party tools, including Python

One system. One team

  • One interface for land use and transport to support seamless communication and data sharing
  • Reduce rework, opportunity for errors, and streamline processes with powerful spatial technology

CUBE Add-On extension applications

CUBE and its add-on extension applications cover all aspects of transportation to help you better understand the impact before implementation. These include:

User Quote

“CUBE - As the name suggests, it provides a multidimensional approach in developing and editing the models, making it easier to work on for modelers across the world.”
