The concept of Geofence map layering
The area geofence heatmap in the App comprises 3 layers :
- 3rd party world map layer, i.e. Google Map
- Illustration map provided by the client, i.e. floor plan of the venue
- Area geofence heat map, where the area areas are drawn in IA CMS

When the user taps on , the blue dot will move to the center and indicate the user’s current location, while the map will rotate to point North on top and return to the default zoom level.

11. Crowd density legend
The color scheme represents the real-time measurement of crowd-density levels in each area as follows :
Crowd density color | Crowd density level | Crowd density (in %) |
Green | Low | Below or equal to 70% occupancy |
Yellow | Medium | Between 71% and 100% occupancy |
Red | High | More than 100% occupancy |
Dark Grey | Not in operation | N/A |
The crowd-density calculation is based on the 1.5-meter requirement for social distancing (The crowd density calculation matrix is customizable depending on different circumstances). Please note that the crowd density percentage is applied across the whole venue and cannot be modified for each geofence area.
