Compare drawtonomy

These pages describe what other authoring tools do, where they fit, and where drawtonomy — a browser canvas that both draws the scene and runs the OpenSCENARIO storyboard — sits alongside them.

For tools that operate in a different layer (OpenSCENARIO players, traffic simulators, scenario DSLs) — where the relationship is interoperation rather than comparison — see Ecosystem.

Which page should I read?

Section titled “Which page should I read?”
  • Authoring and running an OpenSCENARIO in the browser? drawtonomy authors the full storyboard — actions, triggers, and PASS / FAIL conditions — and runs it in the page on esmini-WASM. See the scenario editor, and the RoadRunner / hand-written-XML / scenariogeneration pages below for how it compares to other authoring paths.
  • Building a production HD map, or running a sensor / traffic microsimulation? Those are jobs for a dedicated tool. The visual-editor and Lanelet2-editor pages below describe the tools commonly used for that, and where drawtonomy fits alongside them.
  • Just need a figure for a paper, slide, or doc? The slide-tool, whiteboard, and general-diagramming pages are the closest fit.
  • Inspecting an existing .xodr file? See the OpenDRIVE viewers section.
