7.1.7 Pedestrian Inputs
For a selected walkable space or pedestrian link, inputs of pedestrians can
be defined and edited similar to vehicle inputs, cf. section 6.4.3.
For these inputs of pedestrians, VISSIM will - at random points in time -
create pedestrians according to pedestrian compositions and input volumes.
7.1.7.1 Creating & Editing
► Activate the Pedestrian Edit Mode and the Pedestrian Inputs
mode.
► Select the pedestrian area on which you want to place the new input.
► Right-click inside the area at the position where you want to place the
input. The new input is represented by a red dot inside of the area. The
dot is merely a graphical representation – the pedestrians from this input
will be created at random locations within the corresponding pedestrian
area.
To open the Pedestrian Inputs window for
► inputs of pedestrians per area: Double-click on that area.
► all inputs of pedestrians in the network: Right-click outside of the
VISSIM network.
Similar to the vehicle input dialog, the input of pedestrians data is arranged in
two sections (cf. section 6.4.3.1):
