Our understanding of crowd movements has rapidly improved over the course of the last decades.
This study shows that the empirical research has not kept up with the pace of the simulation studies. Based
on a large-scale of literature review, this study proposes a conceptual model describing the movements of
individuals within a crowd. The model features the relationships between the macroscopic flow variables and
characteristics of the pedestrians their physiologic environment and the surrounding infrastructure in which
they reside. Moreover, walking velocity is one of the factors that affect the movement of every pedestrian with
the difference of gender, age, culture and their physical abilities. Trajectory sets of basic data were gathered
during the observation among independently pedestrian at one of the most regularly used crosswalk by
pedestrians in Penang, Malaysia and the data sets have been analyzed. The results show that the data analysis
has proven that the walking velocity is different among every human with the difference in terms of physical
and psychological factors.
