A number of papers have been published since 2000 which attempt to model pedestrian crowd ow dynamics using basic equations of motion. Here we propose a study which aims to critically evaluate a handful of these models in terms of their predictive accuracies, then categorize them according to their strengths and weaknesses. This will be accomplished by taking aerial footage of crowds on campus using an unmodied quadcopter drone.
