Evaluating pedestrian travel time measurements
With the evaluation of the pedestrian travel time, you record pedestrians when they are added in the start areas until they enter the associated destination areas.
|
Note: Pedestrian travel time measurements must be defined in the network (Defining pedestrian travel time measurement). |
By default, the data for all pedestrian classes is entered together. You can also show the data for certain pedestrian classes separately in the evaluation (Configuring evaluations of the result attributes for lists).
Output data and formats
You can save the following data and data formats:
Output | ASCII file | MDB table |
Attribute file from attribute list |
---|---|---|---|
Aggregated data |

- Show result attributes in attribute lists (Displaying result attributes in attribute lists)
- Show result attributes in result lists (Showing result attributes in result lists)
- Save result attributes to a file (Using the Direct output function to save evaluation results to files)

Description |
---|---|
t |
Time pedestrian entered destination area of travel time measurement [simulation second] |
No. |
Travel time measurement number |
PedNo |
Pedestrian number |
PedType |
Pedestrian type |
Dist |
Distance traveled from the start area to the destination area |
TravTime |
Travel time from the start area to the destination area [s] |
TimeDelay |
Delay [s] from the start area to the destination area: The total TimeDelay when traveling this distance results from the "lost time" per time step. This is determined from the difference between actual speed and desired speed if the pedestrian is slower than desired. Pedestrians might walk slower than desired when they have to slow down because of other pedestrians, for instance when pedestrian density increases. Delays through using a detour are not taken into account in the delay. |
TimeGain |
Time gain [s] from the start area to the destination area: The total TimeGain when traveling this distance is determined accordingly like the delay. The total "time gain" is determined only if the pedestrian is faster than desired. Pedestrians might walk faster than desired when they are required to do so because of other pedestrians. |
DevSpeed |
Difference in [km/h] between the actual speed and desired speed while walking from the start to the end of the section. |
