through or occupying the space during the designated 10-minute period. Use a clicker, tally
counter, or any other suitable counting method.

While counting, gather basic demographic data about the individuals, such as age group,
gender, and any other relevant characteristics. This information helps in understanding the
diversity of people using the space.

3.2.1.6 Documentation
Record your observations and data in a systematic manner. This could be through notes, a
data sheet, or a digital device. Ensure that you document the time, date, and any specific
conditions that might impact the results.
3.2.1.7 Analysis
Once the People Moving Count is complete, analyze the data to draw insights. Look for
patterns, peak times of activity, and correlations between the number of people and their
demographics.
By conducting a People Moving Count using Gehl Studios' method, you can gain valuable
insights into the dynamics of a public space, helping urban designers, planners, and
policymakers make informed decisions to enhance the overall experience for the
community.
Urban Quality Criteria.
The use of Gehl's toolkit to analyze urban quality criteria by creating a tabular column that
assesses various aspects such as protection, basic needs, comfort, opportunities for
interactions, and connections provides a structured approach to evaluating the strengths and
weaknesses of a public space. Your inference suggests that, based on the quantified data, the
space performs well in certain factors but falls short in others.
