Route choice method for partial pedestrian routes

A pedestrian routing decision (partial) is either static, based on a formula or dynamic. For dynamic pedestrian routing decisions (partial route) you can also choose from four different route choice methods.

Route selection method Static

Fixed user-defined ratios per partial pedestrian route for each user-defined time interval (Defining partial pedestrian routing decisions), (Attributes of partial pedestrian routing decisions).

For static partial pedestrian routes the decision process is the same as for static pedestrian routes (main routes).

Route choice method Formula

Enter the formula (with the attribute and attribute value), which defines the percentage of pedestrians using the pedestrian route (Defining partial pedestrian routing decisions), (Attributes of partial pedestrian routing decisions).

Dynamic route choice methods
Travel time

Dependence of choice ratios on the travel time of pedestrians who have already finished the partial pedestrian route (Route choice method using the Travel time criterion)

Service point selection

For modeling the route choice when confronted with a set of parallel queues, e.g. in front of several counters where the shortest queue should be selected (Route selection method Use service point selection).

Quantity

Proportion depends on the number of pedestrians in that area (Route choice method using the Quantity criterion):

Combination method: Calculation of the number of pedestrians from the route choice areas

Density

Proportion depends on the density of pedestrians in that area (Route choice method using the Density criterion):

Combination method: Calculation of the number of pedestrians from the route choice areas
