Generalized Travel Unit.
A GTU is an object (person, car, ship) that can travel over the infrastructure. It has a (directed) location, dimensions, and some properties that all GTUs share. The GTU is not bound to any infrastructure and can travel freely in the world.
For its movement, a GTU uses an OperationalPlan, which indicates a shape in the world with a speed profile that the GTU will use to move. The OperationalPlan can be updated or replaced, for which a tactical planner is responsible. A tactical plan can for instance be for a car to change two lanes to the left during the next 200 m to be able to make a left turn in 200 m. The operational plans are then the implementation of segments of the movement (time, location, speed, acceleration) that the car will make to drive on the road and (safely) make the lane changes. On the highest level, a StrategicPlan puts boundary conditions on the tactical plans. The strategic plan contains for instance the destination we want to reach and possibly some constraints on solutions that the tactical plans have to comply with.
