The recent literature has introduced models based on nonlocal conservation laws in several space dimensions, e.g., see [3] for crowd dynamics applications or [1] for sedimentation processes. The Lax-Friedrichs type numerical algorithm presented in this talk is proved to be converging to the exact solution. The usual divergence free assumption, see [2], is here abandoned. The key step in the convergence proof is providing strong BV estimates on the approximate solutions. Numerical integrations show the convergence rate as well as various qualitative properties of the class of equations considered. References [1] F. Betancourt, R. Burger, K.H. Karlsen, E.M.
