The article draws attention to the necessity of studying the composition of pedestrian flows and the urban areas where they form, move and disperse to improve the urban environment. In modern cities, especially megacities, most pedestrian flows participate in the transport correspondence appearance, which is due to long distances between the locations of origin and destination. A software package calculating the transport area capacity depending on the number of departees uses disaggregate models of travel demand and develops an O-D Matrix. Analysis of the results obtained allows us to assess changes in transportation demand caused by socioeconomic and urban development factors.
