PlaceAgents: Multi-Stop Pedestrian Itineraries as Platial Flows on Urban Networks

Abstract

This article presents PlaceAgents, a framework for modelling multi-stop pedestrian itineraries on city networks using open and reproducible data. The approach uses the itinerary as the base behavioural unit and links three core principles: (1) access to open data sources, (2) enabling explicit assumptions about agents, and (3) the auditability of outputs.
