Guided Path Network Data
A complete guide path network as data: everything needed to rebuild an equivalent network, and nothing that belongs to a running model.
Intersections need not be listed. Any intersection a link names is created implicitly with default properties, so a network of point junctions is described by its links alone. List an intersection only to give it a length, a velocity factor, or layout coordinates.
Station aliases are a flat map from alias to intersection name rather than a field on each intersection, so that adding an alias does not require rewriting an intersection record. That matters when the specification is generated by a scenario sweep.
Parameters
the network's name
the links, at least one
optional property overrides for named junctions
additional names by which process code may address intersections
