Hi there!
I'm starting to model an urban simulation and I'm having a bit of a dilemma regarding what language to use. Have some experience in Netlogo and I'm starting to make a shift towards Repast, GAMA or MESA (geo-mesa), because it is recommended for large scale simulations.
Have been reading papers about which tool to use, but I need someone working on simulations to help me out.
Still, I have questions because:
1- The user base of MESA is scarce and i feel that dealing with issues will be dificult
2- So far i have only seen and read about limited research done in MESA. Specially, dealing with road network integrations. (move an agent along a network)
3- It seems that Netlogo is good for prototype, will not handle big data projects
Thanks in advance, and any pointers to courses or moocs would be great.
Dear @Jonathan,

If you have a little spare time, I'd suggest you try and imllent a *really* rudimentary analogue of your planned model in several of the major frameworks -- focus on the most significant elements -- it might take a week or so for eah, but piing the wrong horse may make for a much slower journey overall.
I have used Anylogic for many years while considering it as a java Agent-baed environment. The java-based modeling framework is more easy and the running performance is also high.
I investigated the urban mobility system. I have developed more than five models with objectives. If you need help, do not hesitate to contact me.
