Uses within a natural site are constantly evolving: changing weather conditions, irregular visitor flows, sensitive habitats, multiple access points. Without data, it is often difficult to know whether perceptions truly reflect on-the-ground reality.
Below are common situations — and how visitor monitoring provides concrete insights.
The actual wear of a trail depends on the number of passages, not its appearance.
It is not uncommon for trail usage to triple during a sunny weekend.
Secondary entrances or viewpoints can sometimes be more heavily used than expected.
Wetlands, protected zones, fragile habitats: decisions must be evidence-based.
Temporary closures, trail rerouting, boardwalk construction, funding requests.
Attendance dynamics evolve, sometimes subtly.
The Verdilo counter is designed to operate in a wide range of outdoor and remote configurations, without civil works or infrastructure. These key features ensure stable, easy-to-use data on a daily basis.
Battery-powered, no mains connection required. Estimated battery life: 2+ years.
Up and running in 2 minutes, no expertise needed, delivered ready to use.
Designed for outdoor conditions, in natural or urban environments.
No images stored, fully GDPR compliant.
Independently identifies pedestrians, cyclists and vehicles depending on configuration.
View data online or retrieve it manually in areas without connectivity.
Regular visitor monitoring in natural areas transforms site management: it reveals actual usage patterns, supports planning decisions, and strengthens discussions with institutional partners.

Analyse traffic volumes, seasonal variations, weather effects and peak usage on your routes. Identify heavily used sections, anticipate maintenance needs and track long-term changes in visitor pressure.
Objective data strengthens decisions: temporary closures, rerouting, boardwalk construction, infrastructure works. You gain concrete evidence to justify, plan and communicate in line with actual site usage.
Visitor indicators are essential for site management plans, regulatory compliance (ENS, Natura 2000 etc.) and funding applications. They provide a clear, consistent and recognised evidence base for public partners to evaluate your projects.

Each site is different — we help you choose the easiest and most reliable configuration.
Here we have put together the most frequently asked questions about our Verdilo counting solutions. If you can't find your answer, contact us directly
Yes, our sensors can distinguish between pedestrian and cyclist flows, even on shared lanes, in both directions.
Absolutely. Our data can help demonstrate a site’s usage and justify investments or upgrades in funding proposals to public authorities or partners.
Yes, we offer rental solutions starting from one day up to several months — perfectly suited for temporary events such as festivals, trade shows, performances, or one-off studies.
Not at all. Installation takes just two minutes — no power supply or civil works needed. The sensor can be mounted on a post, wall or integrated into a discreet housing (wooden post, street furniture, bird-box).
With default settings (data transmission every 12 hours), our counters are designed to operate for at least 2 years without external power. If you increase the transmission frequency, battery life will decrease due to higher energy consumption. This flexibility allows you to tailor the sensor’s operation to your needs while maintaining long-term performance.
By default, our sensors transmit data every 12 hours. This frequency can be adjusted on request. However, increasing the frequency reduces battery life. For locations without network access, we also offer a manual data collection solution — ensuring reliable tracking even in remote or offline areas.
Yes, our sensors are built to be robust, waterproof, and to operate in all weather conditions — rain, snow, or extreme temperatures.
Yes, the Verdilo counter is designed to handle high traffic volumes and can accurately distinguish users even during crowded events. For optimal performance, we recommend placing the counter in a passage area where users are naturally filtered one by one (for example, near a barrier, gate, or controlled access point). Without such filtering, a group might be counted partially or as a single person. Proper positioning ensures accurate counting, even in busy conditions.
Yes, all data collected by our counters is 100% anonymized and compliant with data protection regulations, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Verdilo uses thermal detection technology — not a camera. It does not capture images or collect personal data. The process is fully anonymous, with no way to identify individuals. Furthermore, no individual tracking is performed: only aggregated, quantitative data is transmitted.
