Why did it become a real question?

Attendance to natural parks is increasing, driven by a growing desire for nature and the outdoors. But this attractiveness raises new challenges for managers: Find out how many people are there, especially when the security, the regulation Or the logistics require it.

However, in these contexts: There is no There is not always a ticket office, The accesses are multiple and free, the visual feeling is often misleading, and the estimate “by eye” is no longer enough — neither for the prefecture, nor for the partners.

The Internal Security Code requires any organizer to manage the reception of the public, and to guarantee access safe, controlled and anticipated. But how can you prove, with numbers, that you did not exceed the planned capacity? How to adapt your management staff? Your signage? Your schedules?

Without objective data, it is The approximation that governs.

And in the event of a problem (evacuation, overflow, conflict), it can become a real subject of responsibility.

The limits of traditional methods

Expensive manual counts : personnel assignment, ad hoc data, human errors.

Subjective estimates : often bypassed, unusable in free access or on public roads.

Absence of continuity : not very credible for partners, difficult to use as a balance sheet.

Non-usable data: : impossible to know which slots are the most popular.

The advantages of automatic counting

Precise and automated counting : without heavy infrastructure, even outside.

Differentiation of flows : per day, hour, gauge, maximums, peaks in attendance, entries and exits, etc.

Detailed analysis : for elected officials, sponsors, security services or technical services.

Multi-entry tracking : possibility to instrument several points simultaneously.

Discreet and autonomous hardware : ideal for temporary events, pedestrian areas or forecourt.

Concrete case

“We have been working with KIOMDA for more than 2 years to provide counting solutions during our interventions at major events such as the Jumping International de La Baule during which we count more than 40,000 visitors over 4 days.

As a security provider, the reliability and simplicity of implementation of the equipment offered by KIOMDA is for us a major asset in the management of visitor flows for the events that are entrusted to us.

To perfect all this, the KIOMDA teams demonstrate reactivity and adaptability, which reinforces the climate of trust and the quality of this partnership.”
