Software for simulating crowd flows
Wir entwickeln seit mehr als 10 Jahren crowd:it, unsere Software für die mikroskopische, agentenbasierte Simulation und Analyse von Personenströmen.
Sie basiert auf dem Optimal Steps Model und wird anhand neuester wissenschaftlicher Erkenntnisse kontinuierlich weiterentwickelt. Durch den täglichen Einsatz in unseren eigenen Projekten fließen praktische Anforderungen direkt in die Software ein – für belastbare Simulationsergebnisse, die fundierte Planungsentscheidungen ermöglichen, Genehmigungsprozesse unterstützen und zu einem reibungslosen Betrieb im späteren Nutzungsszenario beitragen.
crowd:it – Software for modern planners
In the crowd:it shop, you can customize your license and tailor it precisely to the requirements of your projects. The scope and functional areas can be flexibly configured—from the number of agents to floors and user access. This gives you a tailor-made solution for your specific planning and simulation tasks without paying for unnecessary capacity.
Two calculation models
in software:
Microscopic Simulations
In microscopic simulations, each person is represented with their individual path. This results in more accurate outcomes and allows for detailed studies on bottlenecks, congestion times, and evacuation processes.
Pros:
- Precise modeling possible
- Genauere Ergebnisse zu Räumungszeiten und Stauauswertungen
- Abbilden und Überprüfen von Prozesssen möglich
Macroscopic Models
We have now introduced the first macroscopic calculation method into our microscopic simulation software crowd:it:
Predtetschenski und Milinski
Macroscopic calculation methods enable quick estimations. Established manual calculations in fire protection can be easily implemented in crowd:it, and the results can be extracted.
Pros:
- Quick results
- Rough estimations
- No precise modeling of geometry required

Who is crowd:it designed for?
Fire Safety Engineer
Develop robust evacuation plans and demonstrate compliance with safety standards.
Event Planner
Plan safe and efficient visitor flow for concerts, trade shows and large-scale events.
Architects & Planner
Optimize building layouts early in the planning process based on simulated pedestrian traffic patterns.
Functions & Features
We are continuously improving crowd:it based on the latest findings from science and psychology. The following aspects characterize crowd:it in particular:
- realistic queuing behavior (both sorted and unsorted)
- Individual properties can be mapped using your own agent types
- Realistic representation of vertical connecting elements: stairs, elevators, escalators
- Flow charts and processes
- Timetables
- Highlighting and analysis of individuals
- Analysis of measurement lines, individual areas, special objects
- Individually adjustable heatmaps (RSET, density, velocity...)
- Diagrams showing individual objects in terms of clearance times, dwell times, densities, speeds, etc.
- Special reports for congestion analysis
