Parameters for pedestrian simulation

The parameters of the model can be categorized into the following groups:

  • Parameters of the original model (by pedestrian type)
  • Parameters of the model extensions for Vissim (by pedestrian type)
  • Implementation-specific global parameters include all discretization parameters, which are necessary, for example, for models formulated using a continuous time. As analytical approaches to solve the differential equations are only possible in scenarios of limited size from every point of view, time needs to be discretized in some way to make a simulation on a computer possible.
