1 This work is a set of tools developed by Nicolas Saunier for transportation analysis, in particular road traffic. The tool resolves around the most typical transportation data type, trajectories, i.e. temporal series of positions. The original work targeted automated road safety analysis using video sensors.

11 The main use case and example for now is to load and analyze trajectory data from the NGSIM project (ngsim-community.org). In a ipython shell with the pylab option, you can try the following (once the python modules are in your python path).
