A Review of Building Evacuation Models - NIST Virtual Library

4 Conclusion
This report provides model users with the information to narrow down choices on the
appropriate model or models to use for specific projects. It is up to the model user to review the
details placed in the appendix and make a final and informed decision as to which model(s) is
best for the project at hand.
As time passes, more evacuation models will be developed and many of the current models will
be updated by developers. It should be noted that this review will require updates as new models
are used and older ones retire. It is up to the user to take the model version, the publish date of
the report, and any more recent publications on particular evacuation models into account when
choosing the appropriate model.
