coordinate_methods.calculate_new_coordinate(driven_time: float, source_location_ID: int, target_location_ID: int, siren_off: bool, SIMULATION_PARAMETERS: dict[str, Any], SIMULATION_DATA: dict[str, Any]) → tuple[float, float]#

Calculates the coordinate of a driving ambulance.

The fraction of driven time compared to the total driving time is used for determining the new coordinate.

Parameters:

  • driven_time (float) – The time that the ambulance has been driving until now.

  • source_location_ID (int) – The ID of the source location.

  • target_location_ID (int) – The ID of the target location.

  • siren_off (bool) – Whether the ambulance is driving without or with sirens on.

  • SIMULATION_PARAMETERS (dict[str, Any]) – The simulation parameters. The parameters NO_SIREN_PENALTY and PRINT are at least necessary. See main.py for parameter explanations.

  • SIMULATION_DATA (dict[str, Any]) – The simulation data. SIREN_DRIVING_MATRIX and NODES_REGION are at least necessary. See main.py and the input data section on the ELASPY website for explanations.

Returns:

tuple[float, float] – A tuple with the new x and y coordinate.
