I Nostri Obbiettivi

To develop a comprehensive

and interactive Mobility Model

for travel in the city of Venice,

by studying the movement of all

people through the city.

Unicita’ della mobilita’ veneziana

Walking and boats are only forms of

mobility

K

Uniqueness of Venetian Mobility

Small changes in public land use has

a big impact on pedestrian flow

K

Studi Passati

Only small areas of Venice have been studied

No pedestrian data for the whole cityC

Previous Venice Mobility Studies

No information about pedestrians on boats

Evacuazione di Piazza San Marco

Does not consider multiple agent-

Street closures

Canal closures

evacuations

Situations that

in Venice

K

Conclusioni

Venice is perfect for studying pedestrians

Model of pedestrians and boats did not exist

Collected pedestrian data throughout Venice

Acquired data about ACTV boat traffic

Created first interactive integrated mobility

model

Used “Autonomous Agents” in model to predict

the impact of unusual situations
