URBAN AND COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT

Urban Development

Legion simulations are useful for modelling and analysing commercial buildings, town centres and areas of urban development, focusing on projects such as transportation integration, new transportation interchanges and methods as well as evacuation procedures. Urban planners, architects, engineers, construction companies and project managers are enabled to design and implement the best possible plans wiht the support of Legion Pedestrian simulation.

Legion worked alongside the London Fire Brigade to film, model and analyse fire drills at Broadgate West, a multi-story building in London. For a detailed account of this project, including results and outputs, please click Broadgate West.

Retail

Retail is both a discrete sector, with the demands of individual retail premises at its heart, but it also intersects with sectors, such as Rail and Metro or Air, where retail services form a crucial part of a site's design and service offering. The most important requirements within the retail environment are shopping experience; accessibility; safety and security; and profitability. Retail planners must be able to model a multitude of activities. Pedestrian simulation in the retail environment tend to have a far wider itinerary of activities to model, incorporating contingent choices and frequent changes of mind. To achieve this, an extremely flexible modelling environment like that offered by Legion Studio is needed.

Legion simulations enabled the New England Patriots to redevelop and improve both retail and spectator experiences at the Gillette Stadium.
