The data collected through radio-frequency wristbands revealed that each devotee visiting Prayagraj Mahakumbh spent an average of 45 minutes on the bathing ghat. The data was also used to count the total number of devotees visiting the fair.
This time, three methods are being used to determine the actual number of devotees visiting the Mahakumbh fair. One of these is RF wristband data analysis. In this, devotees were given a wristband to tie on their wrists.
The data collected from the wristband containing an RF ID chip showed that each of the devotees who came to the fair on Makar Sankranti and Paush Purnima spent an average of 45 minutes on the bathing ghat, from reaching to returning from the ghat after bathing.
Will help in crowd management
Police officers say that knowing the average time spent by devotees on the ghat will help in crowd management. On this basis, a decision can be taken regarding the entry and exit of devotees at the fair. It will be decided when the normal traffic plan is to be followed and when the emergency traffic plan is to be implemented. SSP Rajesh Kumar Dwivedi said that the results obtained from RF wristband data analysis technology will help in crowd management.
