Case Studies: Utilization rate
Utilization Rate of Culture Facility
The continuous monitoring of the utilization rate of culture and club facilities was to be organized in a reliable way. A VisitorXperience sensor was installed at the entrance of the premises, which calculates the incoming and outgoing flow of people at an anonymous rate of 98% to 99%.
Statistics is collected based on gathered information. Utilization rates can be analysed with in 15 min precision and in real time. Utilization rate information is important factor in terms of resources needed to ensure positive visitor experience.
Adult and child visitors were separated in visitor information so that one is able to ensure the success of his events in right target age group. Furthermore adult/child utilization rates can be separated as well as more comprehensive visitor profile information is available for budgeting purposes. Visitor and utilization rate information can be compared between different periods of time, weather or location.
Collected statistics can be used effectively in decision-making when allocating budget resources, timely use of human resources, ensuring the adequacy of facility size, reporting of utilization of premises, and future planning of facility use.
Utilization Rate of Library
Libraries can track number of book loans but today libraries have much more variety in services that they deliver than simply lending books.
It is no longer sufficient for libraries to have only yearly statistics on visitor information, but the needs have gone towards getting real-time statistical information.
Furthermore statistics on child visitors would help focusing services and resources of libraries. Knowledge on effect that weather has on visitor count would help to predict plan resource needs. It is hard and costly to collect visitor information with manual methods or conventional sensor equipment (e.g. IR gates). In addition, accurate predicting of visitor traffic of events will help to cope with the peaks in the right way.
Statistics are generated from the collected data, which can be used to determine the utilization rate of the space at any given time, up to 15 minutes accuracy.
In tracking on e wanted to distinguish between adults and children so that one is able to
- Ensure the success of events
- Child / Adult municipal customers ratio relative to the number of visitors
- In order to make the necessary investments, the budget requires more accurate and real visitor profile information in addition to quantitative information in support of the arguments.
On-line tracking of the number of visitors to maintain the required service level, especially in exceptional situations, such as events, is very important for smooth running of the events. Collected statistics can be used effectively in decision making; When targeting investments, timely allocation of human resources, reporting of utilization of premises and future planning of the use of premises.
Utilization Rate of Sports facility
Tracking of real numbers of visitors in sport centres and halls is challenging for facility managers.
Facilities that are rented out to sport clubs are especially challenging because clubs usually don’t collect precise statistics on visitors attending to exercises or games. It is hard and costly to collect visitor information with manual methods or conventional sensor equipment (e.g. IR gates).
Usually, the most popular types of indoor sports are ball games and swimming activities, but the benefits of user tracking can be found in all indoor sports venues.
Public swimming pools can already keep track of visitors, because of all the customers redeem swimming locker and register as visitors. On the other hand, all sporting competitions, public events or non-swimmers in the swimming pools generally do not require registration, and analyzing these visitor numbers without an advanced system is pretty much impossible.
Typical potential overflow situations include, for example, youth swimming competitions where swimmers' parents and close relatives want to be involved. Ballgame halls usually do not have any kind of accurate tracking of visitor numbers and it can easily lead to over-or under-maintenance.
From the total visitor number information could be directly seen or evaluated:
-Changing rooms and shower facilities utilization rates
-Most popular ball games facilities and their utilization rates
-Maintenance need for sanitary facilities
-Anticipating wearing of game hall facilities and anticipating it in budgets
The collected statistics can be used effectively in decision-making when allocating budget resources, timely use of human resources, reporting of utilization of premises and future planning of premises.
