Room occupancy tracking for university estates teams

Relating actual attendance to the teaching timetable gives estates managers a basis for assessing how university rooms are used. FootfallCam supplies entrance counters, campus dashboards and timetable analytics for lecture rooms, tutorial rooms, libraries and shared facilities. The arrangement can begin at building entrances and extend to the particular rooms or services the university wants to measure.

Pro2, the overhead stereo counter, uses PoE and Ethernet to deliver entry and exit measurements to the software. Zone cameras and local processing add the selected area views. Timetable Analytics compares measured attendance with scheduled sessions and room capacity, while building and room dashboards show occupancy, use periods and usage rates. Historical attendance patterns also contribute to forecasts for represented campus facilities.

The estates team reviews lightly used sessions, crowded rooms and repeated peaks before considering a different room allocation. Library and cafeteria patterns help staff plan service coverage, and selected washroom counters support demand-based cleaning. Building summaries let the team compare use across the campus while retaining the detail of individual sessions. These related attendance, schedule and facility records support decisions about room size, resource allocation and the next areas to include in campus monitoring.
