(mentor) Faculty Civil Engineering and Geosciences Department Transport & Planning Programme Transport and Planning Date 2012-04-13 Abstract Several pedestrian crowd events that became disasters occurred in the last decade. Most of these events were either religious festivals, sport or music events. Even though these events are organized frequently, not a lot is known about pedestrian crowd movements. One of the key problems in the analysis is the lack of crowd movement data. Lowlands offered the Delft University of Technology the opportunity to gather a unique data set of undisturbed pedestrian crowd movements by means of a completely new recording technique using an octa-copter. The main objective of this MSc. Thesis was to build a theory that qualitatively and quantitatively describes the transition(s) between self-organizing crowd movements using this new airborne analysis method. To answer the main research questions equipment, software, theory and data analysis related issues needed to be solved.
