| Abstract |
In this study, information on passengers was collected in order to improve the area calculation criteria for railway stations in Korea to more realistic standards. Information on a total of 1,443 passengers was collected from selected representative railway stations in Korea. Average time of stay and usage in the main space based on passenger's characteristics were statistically analyzed. Passenger's characteristics are the following: sex, age, number of accompanying members, and type and number of baggage. According to the analysis, calculation of coefficients applied to the existing area tended to be overly calculated than the area reflected by the actual patterns of passenger's movement. Therefore, based on the behavior information of the 1,443 passengers, improvements for area calculation were suggested for existing railway station facilities. |
