Thunderhead Pathfinder

Pathfinder is an evacuation simulator that uses modern computer science research methods to simulate human movement, drawing on technologies used in gaming and computer graphics. Pathfinder provides the tools needed to design robust building siting solutions and structural fire protection systems. Multiple simulation modes and customizable occupant properties allow you to easily explore different scenarios allowing you to make conservative and optimistic estimates of expected evacuation times. Pathfinder is a simulation agent, i.e. each resident uses a set of individual parameters and makes decisions independently of each other throughout the simulation. In addition to an advanced pedestrian simulation, Pathfinder includes an integrated user interface and 3D visualization.
