We are excited to announce the launch of ePortal Version 4 - the EvolvePlus Cloud Dashboard that analyses people counter data captured from various sensors, including Overhead, Wireless, and USB. The footfall analytics provide valuable insights into peak visitor traffic, venue occupancy, staffing requirements and bathroom cleaning schedules.
Version 4 is the continued evolution of the EvolvePlus Cloud Dashboard. It has simplified menus, mobile optimization, and a range of new reports and charts.
The following are some of the new features and enhancements available in Version 4.
Simplified Menu
We have simplified the menu for the ePortal application so that all functions are delivered from the initial "ePortal Menu", which is easier to use on mobile devices.
Overhead 3D People Counter Enhancements
New: Daily Overhead 3D Sensor Line Report By Location within Hour Range
Users can choose multiple locations for the report, as well as the specific hour range (e.g. 9 to 17 will only include counts from 9 am to 5:59 pm)
New: Hourly Overhead 3D Sensor Line Report between 8 am and 9:59 pm
This is similar to the existing Hourly report except that it only displays columns from 8 am to 9 pm, so the report is less cluttered.
New: Hour of the Day Overhead 3D Sensor Chart
This chart displays the total count of each hour of the day for the specified dates. You can also choose the hour range to include in the chart (e.g. 9 to 17 will only include counts from 9 am to 5:59 pm)
Wireless LoRaWAN People Counter Enhancements
New: Daily LoRaWAN Sensor Report By Position
This is the same as the existing Daily LoRaWAN Totals by Location report, except that you choose a single location and then choose from a list of positions for the location.
New: Hourly LoRaWAN Grid Report Between 8 am and 9 pm
This is similar to the existing Hourly report except that it only displays columns from 8 am to 9 pm, so the report is less cluttered.
New: Hour of the Day Chart for LoRaWAN By Location
This chart displays the total count of each hour of the day for the specified dates. You can also choose the hour range to include in the chart (e.g. 9 to 17 will only include counts from 9 am to 5:59 pm)
Enhanced: Administration->Monitoring->Latest LoRaWAN People Counter Records
This report displays a log of the latest LoRaWAN People Counter entries saved to the database, which is ideal for checking the current battery levels.
An enhancement has been developed to include the following fields:
- Location
- Position
Wireless RF People Counter Reports
We have redeveloped the Wireless RF reports & charts, with the redevelopment items now displayed in their own section of the menu, providing improved performance and accuracy.
A key feature is that each sensor will have a timezone preconfigured in ePortal so that it no longer relies on the sensor_timezone from the user's login. It also means that multiple locations from different timezones can be on the same report (e.g. display visitor counts for Melbourne and Perth on a single report).
These reports are found in the menu People Counters -> Wireless RF (New Timezone)
More Information
We will be gradually rolling out Version 4 to customers during 2024 - contact EvolvePlus if you have any questions or require more information on the update.
