Main pedestrian flow measures.
| | Full Name | Abbreviation | Meaning |
| | Critical Density (Ped/m2) | - | Threshold density at which emergencies could occur. | | Pedestrian Flow Rate (Ped/s) | - | The average number of pedestrians passing by in a time unit | | Safe Pedestrian Flow Rate (Ped/s) | SPFR | Maximal pedestrian flow rate to avoid exceeding the critical pedestrian density | | Velocity of Pedestrian Flow (m/s) | VPF | Average speed of all the pedestrians at one time, to determine the real-time pedestrian flow speed. | | Average Velocity of Pedestrian Flow (m/s) | AVPF | Average VPF from the beginning of the experiment to the end, which is used to indicate the pedestrian flow efficiency in a specific scenario. |
