Spatiotemporal Trajectories of Pedestrian Mobility at the Train Station: evidence of 24 million trajectories

Understanding pedestrian movement remains crucial for designing efficient and safe transportation structures such as terminals, stations, or airports. The significance of conducting a granular analysis in pedestrian mobility dynamics research is evident in refining crowd behavior modeling. It is essential for gaining insights into potential terminal layouts, crowd management strategies, and evacuation procedures, all of which enhance safety and efficiency. In this context, we offer an original empirical dataset of 24,000,000 samples of trajectory spatial movement at traffic terminals in Havlíčkův Brod and Pardubice, Czech Republic. The dataset was collected using a high-resolution camera system installed at the railway station. Subsequently, algorithmic post-processing was applied to extract anonymous data on the spatial movement of recorded pedestrians. Thanks to this dataset, researchers can delve into the distances between pedestrians in a transportation terminal, considering factors such as group composition, group-to-group distances, and movement speed.
