Pedestrian Library
The AnyLogic Pedestrian Library lets you use simulation to model pedestrian flows, movement patterns, and interactions across environments like airports, stations, retail spaces, and urban areas. Explore different conditions and understand how each environment performs before it exists.
Design Better Spaces with Pedestrian Simulation Software
Improve flow and reduce congestion with the AnyLogic Pedestrian Library by testing decisions in a risk-free environment before implementation.
See How People Actually Move
Build a pedestrian simulation to explore how flows form, shift, and respond to changes in space, demand, and operations. View results in 2D and 3D with density maps and see how small design decisions impact movement from daily use to peak loads.
Solve Real Problems with Pedestrian Simulation Software
Use pedestrian simulation to explore how people move and interact under real conditions, test scenarios early, and make informed decisions before implementation.
Analyze how crowds distribute across large venues and identify pressure points before they form.
Test evacuation scenarios under time pressure and high-density conditions.
Shape movement through layout design, routing logic, and placement of entrances, exits, and service areas.
Study queues, waiting areas, and service interactions to improve throughput and reduce delays.
Balance flows across shared spaces to minimize congestion and improve overall circulation.
Evaluate how changes in demand, layout, or operations impact performance across the system
Why AnyLogic as Pedestrian Simulation Software?
AnyLogic gives you more than pedestrian simulation alone. It lets you model realistic crowd movement, visualize flows in 2D and 3D, and connect pedestrian behavior with broader systems such as transport, operations, staffing, and facility processes.
Digital twin implementation
Create dynamic, data-connected digital twins of your operations to monitor real-time performance, anticipate future states, test decisions, and continuously optimize outcomes. Digital twins in AnyLogic provide you with a virtual playground for exploring possible future scenarios.

FAQs About Pedestrian Simulation Software
The AnyLogic Pedestrian Library is a built-in library for modeling how people move, interact, and queue in different spaces. It helps analyze flow, reduce congestion, optimize service areas, test layouts, and improve safety.
You can use the AnyLogic Pedestrian Library to study crowd movement, identify congestion points, test layouts, analyze queues, evaluate evacuation scenarios, and improve the overall performance of shared spaces.
Pedestrian simulation shows where crowding, delays, and bottlenecks are likely to appear. By testing layouts, routes, service areas such as queue lines, turnstiles, security checkpoints, and more, you can compare options before implementation.
Yes. In AnyLogic, pedestrian behavior can be modeled together with transport, staffing, service processes, facility operations, and other system elements.
You can model airports, stations, retail spaces, public venues, workplaces, urban areas, industrial facilities, and other environments where people move, queue, or gather.
