Glossary of Terms

  • Access Control

    Access control – refers to a system that allows secure entry to specific areas and resources in a given physical facility or computer-based information system.

  • Accuracy

    Accuracy– used within the field of people counting to describe both how well a people counting device picks up and counts targets under different environmental conditions and varying volumes of pedestrian traffic, and how well bi-directional footfall counters balance between ‘in’ counts and ‘out’ counts.

  • Anonymise

    Anonymise– to carry out a process or organise in such a way as to preserve anonymity. A process often required when using video based counters in order to protect the identity of people passing through a count zone. This functionality has been built into the Brickstream 2200 people counters that Axiomatic use.

  • Automatic visitor counter

    Automatic Visitor Counter – a device which replaces the need to manually count the number of people visiting a site. An automated visitor counter monitors and reports on the number of people passing ‘in’ or ‘out’ of an entrance.

  • Axiomatic Technology Ltd

    Axiomatic Technology Ltd. – technical development company established in 1994 specialising in hardware and software development of footfall technology, occupancy management, space management, desk counting, and motion control systems.

  • BACnet

    BACnet – Building Automation and Control Networks. This is an ISO standard for joining together BMS controllers and devices over a network that is dedicated to the BMS. This enables HVAC to be centrally controlled and monitored to make huge efficiency savings and measure HVAC usage.

  • Beam Counter

    Beam Counter- a basic form of break-beam people counting technology using either a single or dual infra-red beams and a reflector or receiver to monitor visitor counts as people break the infra-red beam(s). Such counters are suitable for monitoring basic footfall trends, but their accuracy depends on the environment where they are mounted, the width of the entrance and the volume of traffic. As they will not count two people side-by-side, such counters should not be used for occupancy counting or event management.

  • Bi-directional footfall

    Bi-directional footfall– the ability for a people counter device to count in both directions.

  • Break Beam

    Break Beam – Is another name for a basic counter. A break beam counter uses a horizontal infra red beam or low power laser beam to a reflector or receiver. When the beam is broken a count is created. Using two beams it is possible to show both bi-directional ‘in’ and ‘out’ counts.

  • Brickstream

    Brickstream– American technology company and hardware supplier, based in Atlanta, who have developed the Brickstream 2200 dual-view 3D video counter offering unrivalled levels of accurate customer counting, tracking and queue counting.

  • Building Energy Management

    Building Energy Management – solutions help commercial organisations reduce carbon emissions and energy use. Building Energy Solutions are used to regulate and monitor HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC Control) – and often lighting too. By using people counters and timetables to help monitor actual and planned space usage, we can integrate counters with the HVAC to improve efficiency. It is then possible to show energy use per person rather than per square metre of a commercial site.

  • Building information modeling (BIM)

    Building information modeling (BIM) – People Counting data can be integrated with other metrics to assist with building information modelling processes involving the generation and management of digital representations of physical and functional characteristics of a facility. These building information models are shared to support decision-making about a facility from earliest conceptual stages, through design and construction, through its operational life.

  • Building Management System

    Building Management System– a Building Management System (BMS) is a computer-based control system installed in buildings that controls and monitors the building’s mechanical and electrical equipment such as ventilation, lighting, power systems, fire systems, and security systems. A BMS consists of software and hardware controllers usually joined together by a network. The BMS network is usually BACnet. People counting technology can be used to help a Building Management system run more efficiently by helping to control energy use based on the occupancy of specific zones within the building.

  • CAT5/6

    CAT5/6 – describes the standard cabling requirement for connecting counters to a network in order to poll data to a central location.

  • Consistency

    Consistency– refers to the ability of a footfall counter to produce footfall data with the same level of accuracy under different environmental conditions and volumes of visitor traffic.

  • Conversion Rate

    Conversion Rate– refers to either the number of people passing a retail outlet who enter the store or the number of people who have made a purchase compared to the footfall in a given period. The first is shown as a ratio or percentage from the equation: Passing Traffic / Footfall, the second is shown as a ratio or percentage from the equation: Sales Transactions / Total Footfall (See Increasing Retail Conversion Rate).

  • Count Lines

    Count Lines– the lines that are configured encapsulating an entrance or exit to maximise the tracking time for a thermal or video people counter, whilst minimising any errors created to objects, merchandise or customer movement within the counting zone.

    count-lines

  • Counting Zone

    Counting Zone– the specific area seen by a footfall counter, or the total area encapsulated by footfall counters covering each pedestrian entrance.

    counting-zone

  • Crowd Control

    Crowd Control– crowd control is the restriction or limitation of group behaviour. Crowd control may be part of a crowd management plan, or occur as an unplanned reaction to a group problem. It can include extreme measures to enforce order, such as the use of force, arrest, or threat of personal injury. It may employ barriers that alter the space available for occupancy and patterns of group movement. Inappropriate or poorly managed control procedures have precipitated crowd incidents rather than preventing them. For example, police reacting to a group of unruly persons at a rock concert, herded spectators into areas where there were no means of egress. (ref: THE CAUSES AND PREVENTION OF CROWD DISASTERS, John J. Fruin, Ph.D., P.E. 1993).

  • Crowd Management

    Crowd Management– crowd management is defined as the systematic planning for, and supervision of, the orderly movement and assembly of people. Crowd management involves the assessment of the people handling capabilities of a space prior to use. It includes evaluation of projected levels of occupancy, adequacy of means of ingress and egress, processing procedures such as ticket collection, and expected types of activities and group behaviour. (ref: THE CAUSES AND PREVENTION OF CROWD DISASTERS, John J. Fruin, Ph.D., P.E. 1993).

  • Customer Conversion

    Customer Conversion – refers to either the number of people passing a retail outlet who enter the store or the number of people who have made a purchase compared to the footfall in a given period. The first is shown as a ratio or percentage from the equation: Passing Traffic / Footfall, the second is shown as a ratio or percentage from the equation: Sales Transactions / Total Footfall

  • Customer Insight

    Customer Insight – is the collection, deployment and analysis of information that allows a business to acquire, develop, understand and retain their customer base. Footfall offers a key piece of data to allow businesses greater insight into customer behaviour.

  • Customer Service

    Customer Service– is a series of activities designed to enhance the level of customer satisfaction – that is, the feeling that a product or service has met the customer expectation. Turban et al. (2002). From the point of view of an overall sales process engineering effort, customer service plays an important role in an organization’s ability to generate income and revenue. As such customer service should be included as part of an overall approach to systematic business improvement. A customer service experience can change the entire perception a customer has of the organisation. Using people counters will help a business improve the customer experience by ensuring the right number of staff and tills are available during peaks in footfall traffic.

  • Customer Traffic

    Customer Traffic – The number of customers visiting a retail store is often referred to as customer traffic or customer flow.

  • Dwell Time

    Dwell Time– refers to the amount of time a person spends in a specific zone or site.

Using customer tracking technology more detailed dwell time analysis can be gained for specific visitors

  • Event Counting

    Event Counting– monitoring the number of patrons at a specific event, in order to gauge interest in the event, or to assist with health & safety and crowd management.

  • Event Management

    Event Management-The use of systematic planning and provision for, along with supervision of, factors that may affect an event and crowd behaviour. Good event management involves the assessment of the people handling capabilities of a space prior to use. It includes evaluation of projected and live occupancy levels, displays of clear signage showing areas of ingress and egress, suitable staffing levels and clearly defined and communicated emergency evacuation procedures.

  • Flow Accuracy

    Flow accuracy– the accuracy of a people counter counting footfall in a single direction.

  • Footfall

    Footfall– a specialised term referring to the number of people who go into a shop, business, site or space in a particular period of time. Footfall is an important indicator of how successful a company’s advertising is at bringing people into its shops.

  • Footfall Comparison

    Footfall Comparison– allows users to compare footfall counts from different sites or time periods in order to assess historical footfall trends, or compare the performance of different sites over time.

  • Free Flow Event

    Free Flow Event– an event where fans can move freely between one zone and another often resulting in the potential for over-crowding where use of people counters to monitor visitor flow rates can help to predict the expected time when a zone will reach maximum occupancy, helping the event control team to put flow management procedures into place before over-crowding occurs.

  • Frequency

    Frequency how often a room or space is used within a pre-determined time period.

  • Group Counting

    Group Counting – an advanced people counting algorithm that can determine the potential relationship between visitors based on their proximity to one another and the path they take through the counting zone

  • Height to Width table

    Height to Width table– a document showing the relative widths a specific overhead people counter will see, in order to count accurately, dependent upon its mounting height.

  • HVAC

    HVAC – The general term for Heating, Ventilation and Air conditioning. These are the main areas of energy consumption in a University or office environment and minimising waste can result in huge cost savings.

  • Increase retail conversion rate

    Increase retail conversion rate – Every retailer wants to increase their sales. This can be done by increasing the footfall into the store, or increasing the basket size of each customer, or alternatively by ensuring that more potential customers who visit the site receive the right level of customer service to feel happy to buy something. Increasing the retail conversion rate of your store means getting more sales per prospective customer that enters the site. A small increase in your retail conversion rate can have a larger impact on improving your bottom line.

    live-occupancy-counting

  • Manual Count Survey

    Manual Count Survey – A process where trained staff visit a shopping centre, town or specific venue in order to manually count the number of people. Such studies offer the ability to break down footfall into demographic groups highlighting the age, sex and ethnicity of footfall traffic. However, such studies are labour intensive, expensive, and offer only a brief snapshot of footfall traffic and customer behaviour within a specific location. The results of such studies are highly dependent on the skills and concentration of those conducting the counting survey, and as such are often difficult to verify.

    manual-count-survey

  • Manual Counting

    Manual Counting – Using staff to count the number of visitors into a site.

  • Marketing Performance Measurement and Management (MPM)

    Marketing Performance Measurement and Management (MPM) -is a term used by marketing professionals to describe the analysis and improvement of the efficiency and effectiveness of marketing. This is accomplished by focus on the alignment of marketing activities, strategies, and metrics with business goals. It involves the creation of a metrics framework to monitor marketing performance, and then develop and utilize marketing dashboards to manage marketing performance. It focuses on measuring, managing, and analysing marketing performance to maximize effectiveness and optimize the return of investment (ROI) of marketing. Three elements play a critical role in managing marketing performance—data, analytics, and metrics. Although brand recognition may form part of the purpose of marketing, for a retailer, an increase in sales and profits provides the key ROI. However, an increase in sales transactions alone does not give a full picture of the effectiveness of a marketing campaign. If sales transaction have gone up by 10%, but store footfall has actually increased by 100%, then the campaign has been highly effective, but other factors have reduced the potential ROI. Thus the use of data from people counters to add footfall metrics as part of the MPM is key to understand the true effectiveness of a marketing campaign.

  • Missed Opportunities

    Missed Opportunities– refers to those potential customers who visit a store but leave without making a purchase due to excessive queue length or queue waiting times, lack of available staff, pricing or product availability.

  • Mobile Tracking

    Mobile Tracking– the ability to track the unique short range signals from mobile phones in order to anonymously track the location of a specific user. This technology can be used to create a heat-map of a shop. shopping or town centre.

  • Occupancy

    Occupancy– the total number of people in a specific space, calculated by the total number of ‘in’ counts minus the total number of ‘out’ counts at any given time, or by the use of Brickstream Zone tracking technology that can analyse the total number of people within view of a counter (up to a maximum area of 6 square metres per counter dependant on the mounting height of the equipment.)

  • Occupancy Accuracy

    Occupancy Accuracy– occupancy accuracy is achieved by using overhead counters with accurate and consistent flow-rate accuracy. Occupancy accuracy can be subject to cumulative errors due to slight inaccuracies inherent in all existing people counting technologies. Such inaccuracies are exacerbated by low maximum capacities combined with short average dwell times and high footfall, and high volume traffic flow rates. In order to manage this Axiomatic carefully monitor the accuracy of the counters under different conditions to apply the relevant factors to ‘in’ or ‘out’ counts in order to balance potential errors, and are able to inform clients of the expected tolerance of a system to ensure that decisions are made based on understood data.

  • Occupancy Management

    Occupancy Management– the use of available information from visual, CCTV and people counting equipment to assist with decisions and the implementation of processes to help control the visitor flow and occupancy of venues with a predefined maximum capacity.

  • Occupant-Centric Scenario Modelling for Energy Management

    Occupant-Centric Scenario Modelling for Energy Management – Using Axiomatic People Counting ‘Smart Building’ Space Management solutions allows businesses to understand the use of energy in buildings per person rather than per square metre.

  • Office Space Management

    Office Space Management – refers to systems used to improve the efficient use of desks and meeting rooms within office space. Hot-desking and Hotelling can be used to increase the ratio of staff to desks. Axiomatic provide a desk-sensor which can measure the utilisation of desks by monitoring activity at individual desks, departments or floors of a building.

The Q-Scan Twincomm Counters, Irisys Thermal Counters and Brickstream 2200 all support PoE, however the IRC3000 range of counters require a specific passive PoE supply and must not be connected to an active PoE switch port.

  • Q-Scan

    Q-Scan– the brand name for a range of reliable, easy to set-up beam counters, manufactured and distributed by Axiomatic Technology.

  • Q-Scan Software

    Q-Scan Software– basic software which can be purchased along with the Q-Scan Unicomm and Q-Scan Twincomm Beam counters, to allow a user to manually connect to the device memory (using a laptop and USB cable) and download historical counts into a CSV file which can be manually imported into Excel to generate footfall spread-sheets.

  • Queue Management

    Queue Management– the ability to control queue lengths, in order to improve customer service and the customer experience. Queue monitoring systems can help to identify queue wait times, queue lengths and whether specific tills are manned or inactive. A queue management system can offer both live information to help store managers deploy existing staff with greater efficiency, and historical data to help plan staff deployment based on peak times when potential customers may be otherwise lost due to excessive queue lengths.

    queue-management-jpg

  • Real-Time Counting

    Real-Time Counting– the ability to display live footfall or occupancy counts within 5 seconds of the target having passed through a count-zone.

  • RECAP

    RECAP– the trademark name for Axiomatic Technologies people counting reporting platform, which is split into different levels for the requirements of different customers. The RECAP service communicates with each people counter to bring data back to a central server, and generates a CSV log. RECAP Excel automatically generates daily, weekly and monthly Excel spread sheet reports on the base server, which can be accessed across a corporate network. RECAP BMS automatically polls the data into a corporate business management system in order for a client to compare footfall data with other metrics on an existing reporting platform. RECAP SQL Web-based reporting offers a sophisticated, password protected Internet based platform for Axiomatic customers to view their footfall reports, and query footfall data in order to create the people counting report that covers the sites, periods and sales data that they wish to analyse.

  • Refining Opening Hours

    Refining Opening Hours– The process of studying customer traffic & sales transactions, compared to staffing costs and business overheads associated with a site being open, to identify the times when it becomes profitable to keep a site open, and when it is best to close due to lack of potential customers. Assessing footfall and passing traffic gives a more accurate measure for determining opening hours and maximising sales.

  • Remote Monitoring

    Remote Monitoring– A service offered by Axiomatic to help check that our clients people counters are connected to the network, and are functioning correctly. This process automatically flags any correction errors and can highlight specific accuracy problems. Remote access to people counters also allow Axiomatic engineers to log into a counter see check the view of the count zone, and manually assess the accuracy of a counter.

  • Retail footfall index

    Retail Footfall Index – a regional and national comparison of footfall statistics from a number of sites across a country.

  • Retail Metrics

    Retail Metrics – Data which can be analysed and combined to give a better picture of customer behaviour, marketing effectiveness and store and staff performance. Footfall data provides a key metric in helping retailers understand the strengths of their business and where improvements can be made.

  • Retail Systems

    Retail Systems– The technology and processes available to, and employed by retailers in order to make their businesses more efficient. People counting systems form an integral part of any retail system to provide a metric against which other results can be evaluated.

  • Sales Ratio

    Sales Conversation (ratio)– the number of people who actually make a purchase in a retail store, compared to the total amount of visitors to a store – measuring the share of visitors against buyers by site – shown as a ratio or percentage from the equation: Sales Transactions / Total Footfall.

  • Shopper Tracking

    Shopper Tracking– The ability to highlight the paths of individual customers, or build up a customer heat-map showing the most commonly used paths throughout a retail space and the key areas of interest where customers spend the most time browsing.

  • SQL database (MS SQL, MySQL)

    SQL database (MS SQL, MySQL)– SQL is ‘structured query language’ and is an industry-standard database language. A database is usually used to store the people count data in a way that can be queried so that questions such as “how many people entered such-a-zone last week?” or “how does the footfall at one site compare to another?’ Such flexible structure allows users to import, compare, query and report on multiple metrics. There are two main variants of a SQL database: MySQL and Microsoft SQL. There are other variants from Oracle, and other software vendors.

  • Staff Planning

    Staff Planning– is a continuous process of shaping the staff profile to ensure that it is capable of delivering business objectives and maintaining a high level of customer service to maximise sales conversion ratios in retail, and customer satisfaction in service industries. The use of footfall data to help predict peaks and troughs in customer numbers can help a business reduce staff costs during periods of low footfall, and maximise customer service and profit during periods of high footfall where customer service may suffer due to under-staffing.

  • Stereoscopic

    Stereoscopic– having two lenses to facilitate the ability to create 3-dimensional vision creating an image with both depth and shape. Stereoscopic video counters like the Brickstream 2300 use this ability to achieve more accurate people counting.

  • Tailgating

    Tailgating– describes the behaviour of one person directly following another through security gate. This is typically a problem with swipe-card access-controlled doors, where one person swipes his card, and another follows.  An electronic tailgate monitor can instigate a tailgate alarm when two people try to pass through a security gate simultaneously. The Irisys Thermal counter can be deployed as tailgate detection system and can be integrated with building security systems to ensure that even when security staff are distracted, non-accredited visitors cannot pass into secure areas without detection.

    tailgaiting

  • Tally Counter

    Tally Counter– a basic manual hand-held counter where a member of staff clicks every time a person passes. Such counters are labour intensive and subject to significant inaccuracies due to limited concentration spans, distractions and a lack of understanding of the importance of the counts. Often used by pubs and nightclubs many councils and licensing authorities are now insisting that the capacity of venues is managed with more reliable and auditable technology

    manual-count-survey

  • Thermal Counter

    Thermal Counter– a specific type of counter using proprietary technology, manufactured by Irisys. This type of counter is mounted on the ceiling above an entrance and counts people by monitoring the difference between the background temperature and the temperature of count targets passing underneath. As such, unlike many standard video counters, the IRC3010 thermal counter is not affected by ambient light. These counters are commonly used within retail stores, shopping centres, art galleries, visitor centres and libraries. Irisys also produce a version of the counter which is capable of monitoring tailgating through turnstiles to assist with building security management.

  • Tolerance

    Tolerance- the agreed, accepted and identified accuracy of a counting system once installed.

  • Traffic Density

    Traffic Density– The number of people passing under a people counter, within a specific space at any one time.

  • Traffic Patterns

    Traffic Patterns– the historical peaks and troughs in footfall rates.

  • Under-counting

    Under-counting– the propensity for some people counting devices to count fewer people than are actually passing through the counting zone. This is a specific weakness where Beam Counters are used across a wide entrance. However, both thermal and video counters can also be subject to under-counting when traffic density reaches extremely high levels. Consistent under counting can be compensated for by adding a factor to each set of counts e.g. daily footfall + 10%.

  • University Space Management

    University Space Management – A system developed by Axiomatic using a range of people counting technology, deployed across teaching space and other key student areas within univeristies, to gather data of peak occupancy, frequency of use and to caclutate accurate space utilisation data.

  • Utilisation

    Utilisation is the metric for space usage calculated by looking at the average room occupancy and room use frequency.

  • Velocity Filter

    Velocity Filter – a people counting algorithm that can define which targets are counted based on speed of transit through the counting zone.

  • Video Counter

    Video Counter– a people counting device based on a standard video lens. Usually, analysing footfall targets through black and white images as these offer greater levels of contrast. The majority of video based counting systems are subject to changes in ambient light and shadow which can create problems in accuracy or data consistency. People counting systems based on standard CCTV systems are usually a bolt-on to the CCTV package and as such rarely offer accurate counts, especially where the cameras have not been positioned directly above an entrance for this purpose. CCTV cameras are usually positioned to see people’s faces, and are therefore subject to occlusion when tasked with counting. Unlike many video based counting systems, the Brickstream counter overcomes any problems with ambient light and shadow and occlusion by using dual-lenses and sophisticated people counting algorithms to achieve high count accuracy.

  • Video Counting

    Video Counting describes the use of video technology to count people or objects. CCTV based systems tend to use ‘bolt-on’ software features with background processing, and are subject to environmental factors rarely offering consitent or accurate counts. More purpose built video counters use on-board processing and offer higher levels of accuracy, however, most single lens video counters fail to reach favourable levels of accuracy or consistency.

  • Video Validation

    Video Validation– a facility enabled on the Irisys Dual-View IRC3030 thermal people counter and the Brickstream 2300 video counter which enables recording of a video stream alongside footfall data, allowing the video, stored count data and diagnostic information to be polled via a single IP data stream.

  • Visitor Counter

    Visitor Counter – a device designed to count the number of people entering a public venue.

  • Weather Effect

    Weather Effect – the effect that weather has on the footfall trends of various sites, depending on their; purpose, stock and location. For instance on a rainy day footfall may increase at a sheltered Shopping Centre, or for Outdoor Leisure stores, or a shop selling umbrellas, but fall for normal high street stores. The effects on footfall of good or inclement weather upon a site will vary depending on the nature and location of that site. By assessing the affect weather on footfall managers can estimate the quantitative traffic response and make suitable staffing adjustments.

  • Workforce Management

    Workforce Management– scheduling staff hours to maximise efficient use of office space, especially where hot-desking and flexible workspaces and break-out areas are in use. Alternatively this phrase can relate to scheduling staff to maximise sales conversion in a retail arena.

  • Workplace Management

    Workplace Management– People counters can be deployed to assist with workspace management by showing peaks and troughs in office occupancy throughout each day, week and month to show the percentage use of an office space, against its designated capacity. Most office space management analysis is either taken from anecdotal evidence, where each department may have a vested interest in protecting their space and reporting over-use, or on manual count which are both labour intensive and give only a snapshot of the actual level of use. As the cost of running a single office workstation is estimated at £7,000 per annum, many organisations look to consolidate space. People counters offer an objective, consistent and clear overview across time to provide solid data to efficiently manage desk space and inform business decisions with regards to consolidation or expansion of premises.
