With a growing trend in usage of mobile navigation devices, there is
also a need for an intelligent pedestrian navigation system. As an
example, one might think of a visit to a large commercial center or
a theme park, where the visitor must be efficiently guided to
accomplish his tasks. In order to efficiently schedule a visit in
such a scenario, the system not only needs to simulate and determine
the waiting times across each destination, but also to integrate the
entire system into the geometry of the scenario, to provide spatial
context to non-spatial data. In this paper, we present a framework
for a pedestrian simulation that models the movement of pedestrians
by embedding the simulation into a geometric context. The resulting
model considers the dimensions and architectural constraints of the
scenario, simulates the pedestrian movement over a 3D graph network
and gives an overall view of the congestions along the paths,
waiting times at the destinations, etc.
