OpenPTDS Dataset: Pedestrian Trajectories in Crowded Scenarios

Abstract

Pedestrian simulation is an important approach for engineers to evaluate the safety issues of metro buildings. Although there exist many works of pedestrian evacuation, it is still lacking of rich evacuation data to calibrate simulation models. To overcome this problem, we conducted several real-life pedestrian experiments and create a data set named OpenPTDS. Fundamental speed-density diagram is drawn to show its feasibility. To promote further research and applications, the source data is shared at http://shi.buaa.edu.cn/songxiao/en/index.htm.
