The difference between NGSIMTrajdata and Trajdata

[MaximeBouton]

Trajdata lives in AutomotiveDrivingModels (look at the src code of v0.7.12 not master)
https://github.com/sisl/AutomotiveDrivingModels.jl/blob/v0.7.12/src/states/trajdatas.jl#L5
You can see that it is an alias of the ListRecord object which is defined here:
https://github.com/sisl/Records.jl/blob/master/src/listrecords.jl
This datastructure is rather complicated and not well documented. We decided to drop its support in AutomotiveSimulators as most of its functionalities can be achieved by using Vector instead.

An NGSIMTrajdata is defined here:
https://github.com/sisl/NGSIM.jl/blob/master/src/ngsim_trajdata.jl#L25

@raunakbh92 will be able to provide more help.

Trajdata was an alias to ListRecord, a container used to store a sequence of scenes. For the NGSIM data case, it was used as a means to read in the vehicle trajectory information from the NGSIM provided files, in a format that was then amenable to being replayed using AutomotiveDrivingModels and visualized using AutoViz. As Maxime mentioned, the same functionality can be replicated by using Vector{Scene}. Here is an example of doing that for another dataset, called the interaction dataset.
