Thunderhead.Engineering.Pathfinder.v2017.1.0116 Agent Based Evacuation SimulationAdvanced movement simulation combined with high-quality 3-D animated results, gives you reliable answers quickly.Evaluating Pathfinder Against Alternative MethodsIntroduction With so many evacuation simulation software tools on the market, it can be difficult to compare them, especially for those who have never used one. First, this paper will address the benefits of transitioning from hand calculations to software simulation for egress analysis. Following is an examination of how different tools can reduce project costs through time savings, improve analysis confidence, and enable professional visual results. Finally, we will examine how the vendor’s responsibility to deliver frequent updates, efficient support, and community outreach will ensure that this decision is a safe long-term investment. Throughout the paper, we will...
