Traffic accidents could often be avoided with more in-depth studies of traffic and the geometric layout, using, for example, driving simulators to simulate traffic conditions. The objective of this study is to qualitatively evaluate three types of visualization techniques for examining a road project (one in a 2D printed project and the others using a driving simulator in a virtual immersion system and screen visualization). The results were evaluated by the Analytic Hierarchy Process-AHP method, used to establish different weights for the analyzed variables. For this, a questionnaire was applied to undergraduate students in Civil Engineering to compare the techniques. The results show that the immersive simulation visualization has sufficient quality and can contribute to the validation of geometric designs.
