hillsborough_fl_simulator-skim

This is a Modified City-Scale epidemic simulator (for Hillsborough County Florida USA). We modified CNI-IISC Epidemic Simulator as a base with the following areas:

• Use public land use map data to allocate houses, schools, workplaces and more.
• Add movements / schedules based on the data we processed
• And etc.
• (Please contact us for details.)

There are three(3) main components:

• Synthetic Population Generation
• C++ simulator
• Web / Javascript simulator

StaticInst/ - Generates static files to instantiate a city based on Demographics data

The first stage of the simulator workflow is to generate static information required to instantiate a city. To get the necessary options to instantiate the city:

> python CityGen.py -h
usage: CityGen.py [-h] [-n N] [-i I] [-o O] [--validate] [-s S]

Create mini-city for COVID-19 simulation

optional arguments:
  -h, --help  show this help message and exit
  -n N        target population
  -i I        input folder
  -o O        output folder
  --validate  script for validation plots on
  -s S        [for debug] restore random seed from folder

An example run, to generate a version of Hillsborough County(FL, USA), would be the following:

> python CityGen.py -n 1459762 -i data/base/hillsborough_fl -o data/hills_1.45M

A detailed description of the input files, the script and instructions to run are available at staticInst/README.md

cpp-simulator/ - CPP simulator

This folder contains the cpp-version of the simulator. The CPP simulator evolved from the JS simulator. Please read the cpp-simulator/README.md for more details.
