Social Distance Planning & Management Solutions

Using locational data, social distancing rules, and machine learning, we can create the right social distance plan and management solution to fit your needs. Avoid crowded areas and find alternative routes easily, even indoors!

Space Management

GeoDecisions can help you define socially distanced spaces indoors and outdoors based on real-time, historical, capacity, and utilization data. Our location analytics expertise can help you lay out the best plan for your office space or determine a customer flow plan for your store to meet safe social distancing needs.

Alternative Bus Routing

As people start to get back to work, we want them to be safe during their commute as well as inside businesses, stores, restaurants, and other establishments. The buses that many workers rely on could get overcrowded as restaurants and other activities start to open, increasing the opportunity for new COVID-19 hotspots.

By pulling together restaurant reopening data, employee counts, and bus routes, we can provide your transit agency with a comprehensive solution to keep social distancing measures in place. Information can be shared with commuters regarding which lines or stops are overcrowded, the safest times of day to travel, and more.

Permit Management

As new space restrictions are implemented, local government entities will need to provide guidance and, in many cases, require permits. GeoDecisions has extensive experience developing permit management solutions and understands the backend needs as well as public-user interface requirements.

Here is an example of a permit management solution implemented for Stafford County, Virginia, to help manage restaurant permits. As Stafford County began to open the community after quarantine, they offered a permit option to restaurants to open new or expand existing outdoor seating plans to accommodate safe dining. With a geospatial-based solution, rulers and rules are not needed. The restaurant owners can quickly identify the area they have on the map. The required space limitations are calculated, providing the owner with the allowed seating for that space.

Notification Management

Use GeoDecisions’ Notify solution to help get out messages to alert employees or customers about crowded areas, alternative routes, and more to help manage your socially distanced spaces effectively. Individuals can opt-in to receive SMS, email, or voice notifications directly to their mobile devices. Notify can also update electric signage or a website or portal with real-time information.
