For output of compiled data, the user can set up a specific configuration.
Raw data output always includes all of the provided parameters.
Existing output files of previous simulation runs of the same input file will be
overwritten without warning. In order to save the existing files it is recommended
to move them into another directory immediately after the
simulation run.

VISSIM also allows to output some data in a database format. Currently
database output is possible for the following evaluations:
