The three dimensional Virtual Reality model shows the spatial aspects of the designed facility and gives an indication of the crowd and comfort of the pedestrians, as it allows the user to ‘walk around’ in the facility. The performed case studies show possible application areas of the tool as well as the potential form of the output used to evaluate a design. The case study of the ferry terminals in Vlissingen and Breskens indicates that the simulation tool is not restricted to transfer stations, but may be applied to ferry terminals as well.

State-of-the-art of pedestrian flow theory 29 The minimum criterion is mostly related to the traveller’s choice criteria, such as minimum time and minimum distance. Using a shortest path algorithm implicitly assumes that the traveller being modelled is aware of all the links (and their costs) used by the algorithm.

Hughes (2000) states that pedestrians have a common sense of the task (called potential) that they face to reach their common destination such that any two individuals at different locations having he same potential would see no advantage to either in changing places. There is no perceived advantage to a pedestrian of moving along a line of constant potential. e. 8) where p is the potential. This statement is not appropriate to vehicular traffic but appears to be applicable to pedestrian flows where pedestrians can visually assess the situation.
