How are WiFi heatmaps made?
As with the camera, the purpose is to visually present the areas with the highest number of visits within a given period of time. Flame can present these maps from the geolocation data of each mobile device detected by the WiFi network -by triangulation-. However, it is required that said WiFi network has this capacity and that, therefore, it has been taken into account for this specific purpose in the project and deployment phases of the equipment.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is also possible to make heat maps by Zones on a plane of a physical space, from a conventional WiFi network. Unlike WiFi heat maps that require precise geolocation, with zone heat maps it is possible to represent relevant KPIs of visits and flows between all zones that have been planned to be analyzed. They are a much more practical and less expensive solution.
