Agenda
- Gate Counter Demo (Tobi)
https://portal.sensourceinc.com (login required)traffic view
break down by hour, day, week, month
export reports via spreadsheets
can also save and manage spreadsheets
how do we plan to use this data?
decide opening hours
cross reference with Suma data
but Suma does not actually count number of people
don't have raw data on number of people
anything surprising from initial data?
aligns with what we were expecting for Sept (90k)
we used to have to pad out actual counts
- Elevator Folk – an Icelandic saga (Matt)
recap
two iPads
originally as stands in front of elevator
but no power receptacles conveniently located
so we thought we would use the receptacle in the elevator cars themselves
conduit, tripping hazard, depth of mounting, etc
now we can't use the receptacle in the car at all
Kevin Samson with facilities
the middleman for Schindler
What's our alternatives?
better bang for our buck?
new receptacle on the wall adjacent to the elevator
run it just on internal battery and have staff recharge it each night
Matt will test this in his office
