Abstract
Crowds of people within an environment can be modeled in real time. A multitude of mobile devices located within an environment can periodically transmit their geographical locations over networks to a remote server. The remote server can use these geographical locations to generate a current real-time model of a crowd of people who possess the mobile devices that transmitted the geographical locations. The remote server can transmit the model over networks back to the mobile devices. The mobile devices can use the received model to present useful information to the users of those mobile devices.
