abstract = {This contribution summarizes information about the
fundamental diagram of stairs. First discrepancies of
fundamental diagrams of well-known planning handbooks for
pedestrian facilities and evacuation routes are discussed.
To proof the correspondence to experimental data, published
measurements available in literature are collected and
compared. In the second part we derive a fundamental diagram
for stairs downwards based on precise trajectories. In
addition we scrutinize the influence of the slope of stair
on the fundamental diagram. To check whether our experiments
performed under laboratory conditions are comparable with
characteristics of motion of every day situations, we
present a comparison with a field study carried out at the
same external staircase. Furthermore the contribution shows
a method to gain topographical information of density,
velocity, and specific flow structures to get a microscopic
insight into pedestrian dynamics on stairs. This information
could be used to identify effective bottlenecks.},
