Occupancy Dashboard
Not available for Linux or macOS on-premises deployments.
The Occupancy Dashboard is used to monitor how many people are within a defined physical space. The dashboard can also display mask and age information.
The dashboard relies on SAFR's direction of travel feature, so the camera(s) that the dashboard uses should be positioned such that people are either moving directly away, directly towards, directly to the left, or directly to the right of the camera. See the Desktop Client Camera Preferences documentation for additional information about the direction of travel feature.
In addition, the following preferences must be set for the Occupancy Dashboard to work:
- Every participating camera must be using a Operator Mode that can generate events.
- Events must be enabled in the Desktop Client's Events Preferences menu.
- Face detection and person detection must be enabled in the Desktop Client's Detection Preferences menu. If person detection isn't enabled, then anybody whose face can't be seen (e.g. only the back of their head is visible) won't be counted.
- Age and/or mask detection must be enabled in the
Detect
section of the Desktop Client's Recognition Preferences menu for those sections of the Occupancy Dashboard to be populated.
- Monitored Area: Specifies the monitored areas to be included in this dashboard. You'll need to define one or more Occupancy Monitoring Areas by using the Occupancy Areas Editor on the Web Console's Reports Page.
- Current Occupancy: The current number of people in the space you want to monitor.
- Use Occlusion Threshold: Specifies if occlusion detection is enabled for the Occupancy Dashboard. If enabled, the numerical value indicates the maximum occlusion value allowed for a face to be recognized. When this setting is set to 1, no occlusion filtering is applied.
Note: Occlusion detection must also be enabled in the Detect
section on the Desktop Client's Recognition Preferences menu.
- Show Age and Mask: Specifies if age and mask information will be included on the dashboard.
Note: Age and/or mask detection must also be enabled in the Detect
section on the Desktop Client's Recognition Preferences menu. In addition, the previous parameter, Use Occlusion Threshold, must be enabled for mask information to be included in the Occupancy Dashboard.
- Colors: Specifies which color scheme will be used for the dashboard. There are three options: Blue Theme, Green Theme, and Contrast.
- Logo Image URL: Use this to use a custom logo in place of the SAFR logo at the top of the trend chart.
- Scale automatically: When enabled, the dashboard will automatically fill the user's browser window. This facilitates reading the dashboard even when the window is very small. (e.g. on mobile devices)
- Refresh Interval: Specifies how frequently the data on the dashboard is refreshed. If "0" is entered, the dashboard won't work. If you want a very quick refresh time, enter a very small non-zero number such as 0.1.
