Measure How People Use Outdoor Spaces

Real-time usage analytics for trails, parks, courts, transportation corridors, and public spaces.

Solar-powered AI sensors measure visitation, activity types, occupancy, and usage patterns — without permanent infrastructure — so agencies and planners can answer the questions that drive decisions.

Waypoint VisionAI One

One sensor. Almost any outdoor space.

VisionAI One combines cellular connectivity, solar-capable power, and computer vision with the Waypoint analytics platform in one autonomous outdoor sensor for trails, parks, courts, and public spaces.

Solar-capable: Battery powered with external solar. Deploy without permanent power.
Built-in cellular: Observations reach the Waypoint platform automatically.
Computer vision: Activity types, direction of travel, occupancy, and more.
Built for the outdoors: Weather-resistant enclosure for long-term autonomous deployment.

Trail Counting

Understand trail usage trends — and how your trails are used.

Measure trail traffic by activity type — pedestrians, runners, cyclists, skiers, and dogs — with direction of travel, time-of-day patterns, and seasonal trends.

Pickleball & Tennis Court Analytics

Understand when your courts are actually used.

Measure court occupancy, utilization by time of day, and peak demand to plan investments and manage recreation facilities.

Also used at trailheads, parking lots, boat launches, and parks.

Why Waypoint

More than a trail counter.

Multimodal

Know what’s actually happening.

Don’t just count beam breaks. Identify pedestrians, runners, cyclists, skiers, dogs, and vehicles.

Real-time

Your data comes to you.

Built-in cellular sends observations to the Waypoint platform automatically. No SD cards. No field downloads.

Versatile

One platform. Different questions.

Count trail users, measure court utilization, monitor parking occupancy, and analyze pedestrian traffic with the same sensor.

Defensible

See the observations behind the numbers.

Review de-identified images to build confidence in counts and investigate anomalies instead of trusting a number blindly.

Privacy-First Analytics

Measure activity, not individuals.

Waypoint is built to understand how outdoor spaces are used, not to watch who uses them. Sensors capture still images of activity rather than continuous video, and results are reported as anonymous usage data.

No facial recognition
Models classify activity types. They cannot identify individuals.
Automated de-identification
Images are blurred to obscure faces and identifying features.
Aggregate insights
Reporting focuses on counts, trends, and utilization — not individual people.
