Large and complex sites require a greater depth of planning, and hence the modelling techniquesbecome more complex. We will explore two methods in this Unit. The first uses a spreadsheet analysis to form the basis of a time-controlled crowd management plan, and the second uses a crowd simulation. Both should produce the same result, and we will explore the similarities and differences of the two approaches for a wide range of complex spaces. InControl, like many commercially available crowd simulations, has a wide range of applications. In this unit we will explore the use of this crowd simulation tool for a range of environments and review the limitations, applicability, and reliability of the system's results. We shall also compare and contrast Myriad (spatial/network/agent) analysis with the InControl simulation and review the Crowd Science tools (DIM-ICE, RAMP Analysis, Risk/Congestion Mapping and Decision Support Analysis) in the context of planning, modelling, creating and then evaluating the inputs and outputs of the crowd simulation. Each environment (stadia, transport, streets, CBDs, Olympics, etc) has unique characteristics relating to planning and managing those spaces. We will review the crowd management planning process for each environment with specific reference to the use of models and simulations to understand where they can be used to help plan for places of public assembly.
