Transportation
Airports, seaports, bus terminals and train and metro stations face security and safety challenges due to the high number of passengers passing through such mass transportation hubs. Recognizing the number of people present in such facilities, which can reach tens of thousands at any one time, it is imperative to be aware of security or safety breaches that cause major interruptions, or even, tragic ramifications.
Agent Vi’s products are well suited to serving mass transportation hubs, as they effortlessly pinpoint security breaches, alert to safety hazards, protect valuable assets, provide data and information to enhance operational efficiency and offer powerful forensic analysis capabilities.

Crowding |
-
Detect passenger density and crowding on train and metro platforms to avoid accidents
-
Count people entering enclosed areas to ensure that the number of people present does not exceed the recommended limits
|
|
Traffic Congestion / Violations |
-
Detect exceptions to the general traffic flow to ensure smooth movement
-
Detect private vehicles traveling in lanes reserved for public transportation
-
Measure traffic activity (parking lot, adjacent paths) to enable better planning to avoid congestion, improve traffic flow and maintain clear access points

Measuring Traffic
|
-
Count the traffic flow (people / vehicles) in defined areas or entering / exiting secure zones / facilities to make appropriate staffing and resource allocation decisions
-
Analyze movement of people / vehicles across different time periods to better manage traffic flow
|
|
Traffic Congestion
|
-
Analyze traffic paths to better understand traffic flow and adjust procedures accordingly, such as arranging queues for ticketing
-
Count vehicles in order to analyze traffic flow at different hours and days, and make plans for allotment of lanes and opening and closing of exits
|
|
|
-
Detect queues (checkpoints, ticketing) that exceed thresholds prompting additional allocation of staff
