Smart City Case Study:

Outdoor dining pedestrian counting dashboard

To assist with COVID-19 restrictions and social distancing, as well as future planning, we've installed pedestrian sensors at our key activity centres and footpaths.

This allows community members and businesses to get real time information, and view data from previous days to help determine the busy and quiet times to make smarter and COVID safe decisions.

This not only offers residents an opportunity to pick the time they can go out to the precincts safely, but also provides local businesses with insights to enhance their operations, and assists us to plan safe events or pop-up precincts in the future.
