Abstract

A method of visualizing output data of a traffic planning method for controlling a plurality of vehicles (v1, v2, . . . ), wherein each vehicle occupies one node in a shared set of planning nodes (wp1, wp2, . . . ) and is movable to other nodes along predefined edges between pairs of the nodes, wherein the output data indicates respective planned node occupancies of the vehicles for a sequence of time steps, the method comprising: obtaining a graphical representation of the planning nodes; and in the graphical representation, indicating each vehicle's planned movements between the nodes by linear graphical elements, wherein an appearance parameter of the linear graphical elements has a time variation with respect to the time step, which time variation is common to all vehicles. The appearance parameter may be a line width, line style, color or texture.
