N2  - It is rather unknown how skiers move inside ski areas. However, new data collection systems, such as RFID chips on ski passes (which allow counting skiers at the gates of the cableways), can be used to analyse the movement of skiers in the cableways network and in the ski runs graph. This will show how queues arise at the cableways departures and how crowds are formed on the ski runs. This short paper is reporting a multi-agent simulation approach called Ski-Optim to study graphs and queues arising in a ski area. A software simulation was experimented on the ski area of Verbier in Switzerland
