However, analyzing semantic trajectories in realworld scenarios remains challenging, as collecting high-quality data is costly and often lacks rich semantic information. Meanwhile, existing simulation tools require substantial technical expertise, which makes them difficult for practitioners to adopt. To address these limitations, the paper proposes 􀀨􀀴􀀽􀁂􀀴􀀬 􀀰􀀻􀀺, an interactive system that supports simulating semantic trajectories by LLM-powered agents. We develop a simulation workflow that combines LLMs and the social force model to balance physical plausibility and semantic coherence. A user-friendly interface is designed to facilitate users in customizing the simulation configuration and analyzing simulation outputs. We also conduct a quantitative experiment to evaluate the effectiveness of our simulation workflow, and a user study (n=12) to assess the usefulness and efficiency of our system.  \nCCS Concepts  \n• Human-centered computing → Interactive systems and tools.  \nKeywords  \nsemantic trajectory, LLM-powered agent, interactive system  \nACM Reference Format:  \nZiyue Lin, Xinhang Xie, Kangyi Wang, and Siming Chen. 2018.

For instance, a first-time tourist may follow on-site signage and focus primarily on iconic artworks, whereas a local art student who frequently visits might adopt a self-directed route, selectively revisiting favored sections. Analyzing these distinct patterns holds substantial promise for personalized route recommendation [3, 11], adaptive exhibition design [65], and nuanced engagement evaluation [42], which are increasingly important for cultural institutions and public venues [3, 17, 23, 64] .  \nFocusing solely on raw spatial paths or aggregate
