Crowd Management Heerlen - LED crowd flow management at events

Heerlen in South Limburg hosted Serious Request with the Glass House: a continuous week of thousands of Dutch visitors passing through to donate money. Daylight handled the crowd flow management between the station, Burgemeester van Grunsvenplein and the car parks, with attention to emergency services access at every moment. LED displays showed the programme, route directions and thank-you messages to the visitors.

Our approach

Drawing on 35 years of experience since 1991, we provide a complete multidisciplinary system for crowd management. The six core pillars:

LED displays on scaffolding

Mobile and fixed LED displays for real-time control. Flexible installation, including on slopes.

Daylight scenario software

Insert text and pictograms, visually verify, and broadcast within 1 minute.

Point-to-point network

Proprietary protocol - no Wi-Fi, not hackable (4 security levels). Independent of mobile providers.

12 Beaufort-resistant

Constructions survive extreme emergencies (3 tonnes of concrete + scaffolding base). Beyond NEN-EN 13782.

UPS2MOVE backup power

5 hours of green emergency power, no exhaust fumes, flood-resistant (4 m high in scaffolding).

Multidisciplinary control room

We advise; the policy makers in the control room decide. Daylight builds its command post on site.
