We are glad to to give you a brief summary about the functionality, license model and pricing of our planning and simulation tool. OpenTrack was developed in the last years at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH Zurich) as a research project together with several partners from the railway companies and the public transport industry. The development is based on the latest technologies in object-oriented programming and design. Functionality of OpenTrack A brochure describing the most important facts about OpenTrack is attached. Our website contains a detailed description, many output examples and some videos of OpenTrack.

One license may be installed on one computer. The license fees include all Swiss taxes. All possible taxes for your country (e.g. customs, VAT, withholding tax, ...) have to be paid by the buyer of the software.

If the training takes place outside Zurich our travel expenses have to be added. Presentation You are always very welcome to visit us in Zurich (Switzerland), to see OpenTrack in action. We were glad to give a demonstration of our tool to you and your team. Another option we can offer is organizing a web-based presentation.
