HeatMap?

Hello,

Can someone make a HeatMap in my model and explain me how can I make it? I know that A* navigator can create this map.

I wanna see the HeatMap of my crane for knowing whitch trip has frequented most.

Thanks!

Here is a basic example of HeatMap in a model using crane.

To generate a heatmap, you need to use A* navigation and from the A* navigation properties under "Setup" tab, add all the other members of the model using the sampling icon as shown in the below picture.

Double click on the A* navigation object, under the "Visual" tab you will have the HeatMap box. Check the dialog box and set the other parameters as needed , this will generate a HeatMap for the crane in the model.

Here is an attached example model. A-star_crane heatmap.fsm

Hope this is clear.

A solution example for creating a heatmap for any object and transport - regardless of navigator type.
