Binaries (64 bit), all dlls needed, the examples, tools, and documentation in HTML format. For an explanation of the contents and the licensing (especially concerning the "extra" build which contains GPL code to support GeoTIFFs, shapefiles and 3D models), see the notes below.
- 64-bit installer: sumo-win64-1.26.0.msi
- 64-bit zip: sumo-win64-1.26.0.zip
- 64-bit installer with all extras (contains GPL code): sumo-win64extra-1.26.0.msi

SUMO is also available via winget so winget install --name sumo should give you the latest release (but not the extra version).
SUMO-Game#
- Windows binaries: sumo-game-win64-1.26.0.zip
Linux#
The community maintains several repositories notably at the open build service. For a detailed list of repositories see below.
To add the most recent sumo to your ubuntu from the launchpad repository you will need to do:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sumo/stable
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install sumo sumo-tools sumo-doc
Repositories#
The build service provides instructions on installation for every distribution.
If the repositories do not contain the libraries (like proj and gdal) they are either part of the distribution or you will need them from another repository (you may try one of the build service repositories here too, e.g. Application:Geo). At the moment there is no documentation included in the packages. The repositories include a nightly build as well (called sumo-git).

There is also a flatpak available for SUMO.
Examples#
Adding the repository and installing (the quick and dirty way without checking GPG keys!) looks like this, for yum on CentOS 7:
yum-config-manager --add-repo=https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/science:/dlr/CentOS_7/
yum install -y --nogpgcheck epel-release
yum install -y --nogpgcheck sumo-1.26.0
Please be aware, that all build service repos contain the latest nightly build and the current release, so make sure you specify the version if you do not want the latest build.
To find out which versions are available on ubuntu use apt show sumo -a.
macOS#
SUMO can be easily installed on macOS by using the provided package file:
- pkg installer: sumo-1.26.0.pkg
Make sure to have Python and XQuartz installed on your Mac.
You can also build SUMO by following these instructions here.
Homebrew#
You can also read the Homebrew-based installation guide here or follow the build instructions. The usage of the homebrew bottles is discouraged.
Important notice
We no longer maintain the installation via Homebrew. It may be used to install older versions, but support is not provided. Please use the installer or build SUMO yourself.
If you used the installer, this step is not needed!
In order to have a more native feel on macOS, we provide some application launchers (icons / shortcuts). These launchers work with all versions of SUMO and do not need to be updated.
These launchers allow you to select sumo-gui as the default application to open .sumocfg files on macOS, and even add sumo-gui, netedit and the OSM Web Wizard to the dock.
Important notice
In order to use the launchers, make sure you have installed SUMO beforehand (any version) and have set the SUMO_HOME environment variable.
Sources#
Download the sources, examples, and CMake-files for creating Visual Studio solutions or Linux Makefiles. This download does not contain tests. Download as:
Python packages / Virtual environments#
Starting with SUMO 1.8.0 (for macOS since 1.12.0) the installation is also possible from the Python packaging index.
You can install either the applications: pip install eclipse-sumo or only traci (pip install traci), libsumo (pip install libsumo) or sumolib (pip install sumolib).
This should work for Windows, macOS and all Linux versions which are more recent than 2014. Linux wheels are provided in four flavours: manylinux2014 and manylinux_2_28 for x86_64 and aarch64. manylinux2014 is missing some components such as GDAL and JuPedSim but manylinux_2_28 should be feature complete (pip usually chooses the newest version compatible with your system, so unless you are still on CentOS 7 or openSUSE 15.x you should be fine).
The applications are available for Python 2 and Python 3, libsumo only for Python 3.9 and above. This gives an easy way to test a new SUMO version via virtual environments or a nightly build using the following commands (on Linux):
python -m venv sumo_test
. sumo_test/bin/activate
pip install eclipse-sumo
python -c "import sumo; print('SUMO_HOME=' + sumo.SUMO_HOME)"
The last line prints the value to set for the SUMO_HOME environment variable when using this virtual environment.
macOS dependencies
In order to use the Python wheels on macOS you need to have all the dependencies installed and up to date via brew for instance by following the standard installation once.
Additional Tools#
To take full advantage of all Python tools
please install the dependencies via pip install -r $SUMO_HOME/tools/requirements.txt.
SUMO - Latest Development Version#
SUMO is under active development. You can find a continuously updated list of bug-fixes and enhancements at our ChangeLog. To make use of the latest features (and to give us pre-release feedback) we encourage you to use the latest version from our code repository.
Every push to our main branch also triggers a build for Windows, Linux and macOS. The results can be found by clicking on the relevant commit here and downloading the appropriate file for your platform (you may need to sign in to GitHub).
