Overview
(GSS) is a road traffic scenario simulator with reactive agents (vehicles and pedestrians). GSS leverages high-definition map format and a scenario modelling language called . Agent behaviour is specified using Behaviour Trees.
Example use: Traffic recording and re-simulation
Example use: Cut-in test scenario in GSS dashboard and UnrealEngine 5 co-simulation
Native GeoScenario Server simulation
By default, GSS simulations can be viewed using the built-in dashboard, which shows the map (top left), view focused on a selected agent (bottom left), and a table listing the state of all agents (top right).

Co-simulation with a high-fidelity simulator
Additionally, GSS can be integrated with a high-fidelity simulator based on UnrealEngine.

WISE Sim integration
GeoScenario Server has also been used as a traffic simulator together with WISE Sim for testing of WISE ADS running on UW Moose.
