Traffic simulations cover guest transfers, shuttle routes, drop-off areas, and the island microgrid. For Marine Operations, this category also includes waves and currents that affect vessel movement. The sections below explain how each role uses the results.
The scope label currently shows Shura Island as a placeholder; it does not define the scope of the examples below.
Mobility
The mobility model compares transfer demand with the vehicles and service capacity available.
Guest Experience Manager
Use the mobility simulation to assess guest waiting and transfer times under a chosen demand scenario. The aim is to keep trips running to plan when requests increase.
The forecast compares demand with the fleet and schedule, showing where transfer times lengthen and requests accumulate. Use it to plan adjustments before the arrival peak, with particular attention to the stations where queues are likely to form.
Mobility, Guest Experience view. Transfer demand increases while bus availability falls.
Operations Manager
Operations uses the mobility simulation to check whether the available fleet and charging network can meet the day's demand. Both matter: a vehicle must be in service and have enough charge to carry out its trips.
The forecast identifies whether vehicle availability, charging capacity, or both will constrain service at the peak. Review that shortfall before deciding how to rebalance the fleet and charging schedule.

Energy
The energy model compares the island microgrid's electricity demand with its renewable supply and reserves.
Operations Manager
Use the energy simulation to compare the island's electricity demand with its renewable supply and reserves. Watch for a supply gap that could trigger diesel backup.
The forecast shows the renewable share over time and the reserve available to cover a shortfall. Use these results to review dispatch, EV charging, and reserve choices before demand reaches its peak.

Environment Manager
The Environment Manager uses the energy simulation to assess progress towards the renewable-energy target under the selected demand and supply conditions. The view also helps identify when renewable generation would go unused while reserves decline.
Review renewable share, emissions, curtailment, and reserve together. They show the environmental consequences of the scenario and help the team assess whether dispatch and reserve choices support the target.

Shuttle network
The shuttle model shows how passenger demand is distributed across the network and where routes approach capacity.
Guest Experience Manager
Use the shuttle-network simulation to assess how reliably guests can travel across the destination. A delay on one busy leg can affect demand elsewhere or lead guests to walk instead.
The forecast shows where passengers depend most on the service and where they switch to walking. Review those connections together before changing an individual route, so the proposed improvement accounts for its effect on the wider network.
Shuttle network, Guest Experience view. The marina line runs full at peak, with waits building at the stops.
Operations Manager
Operations uses this simulation to compare demand with the capacity of each shuttle route. It helps identify heavily used legs and uneven fleet utilisation that could reduce reliability.
Check which routes approach capacity during the forecast period. Use the results to consider adding service or reallocating vehicles before those routes become overloaded.

Drop-off forecourt
The forecourt model shows how arriving vehicles affect queues, bay occupancy and the approach road.
Guest Experience Manager
Use the forecourt simulation to assess the arrival and departure experience when several vehicles reach the kerb together. The focus is on keeping guests moving through pickup and drop-off areas without long queues.
The forecast shows vehicle dwell time, queue growth, and bay occupancy. It identifies when congestion could begin, helping the team plan vehicle staging and kerb management before the rush.
Drop-off forecourt, Guest Experience view. The kerbside queue grows during arrivals, with vehicles spilling to the approach.
Operations Manager
Operations uses the forecourt simulation to check how quickly vehicles can pass through the kerbside bays with the staff available. The concern is a queue extending from the forecourt into the approach road.
Compare the arrival pattern with the forecourt's capacity and watch where vehicle staging falls behind. Use the forecast to plan staff positions and kerb management for the expected peak.

Wave
The wave model follows offshore swell towards the shore and along vessel routes.
Marine Operations Manager
Use the wave simulation to assess when conditions on vessel routes and at the marina approach the small-craft limit. It helps plan departures and beach calls within the available operating window.
The forecast follows offshore swell towards the marina and along the routes, showing wave height and where waves break. Review exposed sections before deciding whether to hold a departure or change a beach call.
Wave, Marine Operations view. Wave height 1.6m against the small-craft limit, 6 vessels exposed, marina surge watch.
Ocean current
The current model shows how water moves through channels and the basin under the selected conditions.
Marine Operations Manager
Use the current simulation to assess drift risk at the channel and along dive routes before boats depart. Conditions at a particular site can differ from the average across the destination.
The forecast models the selected tide and wind conditions and shows where currents strengthen. Use those local readings to review dive routing and vessel movements before committing boats to a route.
Ocean current, Marine Operations view. Drift risk at the channel, current 0.6 m/s, 5 vessels in the drift zone, handling harder.
