network-validation

Network validation checks your network.xml.gz file for common issues like zero-length links, missing PT modes, mode mismatches, and disconnected components. It verifies node and link counts, coordinate bounds, capacity values, and population link references against your config to ensure the network is ready for simulation.

Network cleaning identifies zero-length links, disconnected components, missing public transit modes, capacity anomalies, and mode mismatches between network configuration and routing config. The PrepareNetworkForPTMapping tool removes these issues and augments the network for PT readiness.

First verify network.xml.gz exists and inspect node and link counts. Confirm networkModes in config.xml align with network contents. Then run PrepareNetworkForPTMapping to clean disconnected components, validate modes, and augment the network for public transit mapping.

Yes. The Skill validates that network modes align with routing config by comparing networkModes in config.xml against the actual modes present in your network.xml.gz file, detecting mismatches before simulation.

Network validation requires network.xml.gz and config.xml. It inspects node and link data, coordinate bounds, capacity values, and population link references within these files to assess network consistency and PT readiness.

Networks fail PT validation due to zero-length links, disconnected components, missing PT modes, mode mismatches between config and network, capacity anomalies, or population link references that don't align with network structure.
