7.1 The Pedestrians Editor (Add-on)<br />

<strong>VISSIM</strong> can be used in two modes:<br />

► Vehicle traffic mode<br />

► Pedestrian traffic mode<br />

The Pedestrians Editor (Add-on)<br />

In the toolbar, the PEDESTRIAN EDIT MODE button serves for toggling<br />

between these two modes.<br />

When the Pedestrian traffic mode is activated, the Pedestrian Elements<br />

toolbar for the Pedestrian traffic mode appears.<br />

► The Network Elements toolbar for the Vehicle traffic mode is faded out.<br />

► Only common toolbars (Navigation, Selection, File) remain visible in both<br />

modes.<br />

The basic objects for modeling a network for simulation of pedestrian flows<br />

can be accessed in either mode.<br />

► In the BASE DATA menu you may define the following:<br />

- Pedestrian types and Pedestrian classes<br />

- Walking behavior parameter sets<br />

- Area behavior types<br />

- Display types (of areas)<br />

- Level properties for multi-storey models<br />

► In the TRAFFIC menu you may define Pedestrian compositions.<br />

traffic mode toolbar are available.<br />
