Dear Pieter,

look, the reason for not answering to dfrouter question is that we
simply only seldomly use it. I suppose I would be the one who should
be responsible for it as Eric and me originally wrote it and I was the
one who documented it.

What documentation about the dfrouter have you read? What is missing
in there? Mentioning that all sources/sinks must be supplied? Well, I
don't know why, maybe because dfrouter's behaviour is simply not
defined properly, but I don't like the documentation either.

And, well, if you like to, you are sincerely invited to extend the
documentation. You'd need to log-in and send us your username, then. I
think that is the procedure?

Regarding your question: yes, I think that's possible - or was, but
due to seldomly using it, there also was a lot of bugs in the code.
There must be an output which contains the detectors with their
computed types ("detector-output"?). If given back to dfrouter, these
types are not recomputed. Unless given an according option
("--revalidate-types"??).

Any help is appreciated.

I think there will be a publication about that tool soon. I think the
idea is quite fine, at least for the original area we have applied it
for (highway ring around the city of Cologne). You have detectors at
all exits and entries of the highway there. You still have the problem
that it's a ring, but as we were interested in vehicle flows, not
person routes, let's say, and at "in-between" detectors the vehicle
flows have been calibrated, and actually the probability to drive in
circle, once was very small, we neglected it.

Hope I could help.

Sincerely,
Daniel
