 # SUMO - CommonRoad Interface
 
-This interface couples the framework for motion planning of automated vehicles based on [CommonRoad_io](https://pypi.org/project/commonroad-io/) and the traffic simulator [SUMO](https://sumo.dlr.de).
+This package implements the interface between the framework for motion planning of automated vehicles [CommonRoad_io](https://pypi.org/project/commonroad-io/) and the traffic simulator [SUMO](https://sumo.dlr.de). The interface is presented in detail in our [paper](https://mediatum.ub.tum.de/doc/1486856/344641.pdf) [1] and a documentation of the API can be found [here]( https://commonroad.in.tum.de/static/docs/commonroad-sumo-interface/index.html).
