Legion Applied to Every Olympic Games from Sydney Games Onwards

Legion Simulation software is very relevant in the Sports & Major Events area.  Legion Simulation modeling has been used for planning with every Olympic Games since Sydney through to the 2012 London Games, as well as incorporated into NFL planning for the Super Bowl. Legion also has extensive experience with simulations in stadiums across the world from Wembley Stadium to NFL New England Patriots Gillette Stadium. Legion Simulation can test various pedestrian circulation scenarios to see what would work best in a live environment. A successful sports venue integrates effectively with local transport and supports the efficient flow of spectators within and around the venue. Additionally, safety, accessibility,  and an overall positive visitor experience are key objectives that can be met with the support of Legion Simulation solution.

“This new generation of tools enabled us to actually see the human traffic flows, densities and use of space, well before taking irreversible planning decisions or implementing specific designs. In our view, Legion's software has an important role to play in the planning and operation of large and complex public environments.”

- Jim Sloman,COO, Sydney Organizing Committee for the Olympic Games
