Area Controls

Understand how people and equipment move through controlled space.

Choose the zones, boundaries, time limits and occupancy levels that matter to your site. Edgentik creates reviewable alerts, sends configured notifications and shows where the pattern keeps recurring.

Physical operating context People · equipment · materials · staging · routes · timing Area conditions are tied to how the site is actually organized and operated.
Four area conditions

Apply the rules that matter to your physical work area.

Edgentik observes people and equipment relative to the zones, boundaries, time limits and occupancy levels your site chooses.

01

Restricted-zone entry

A person or selected type of equipment enters or remains inside the restricted area chosen by the site.

Where and when do entries into the area recur?

02

Time-limited-zone exposure

A person remains within an area longer than the time limit chosen by the site.

Where and when does extended presence recur?

03

Boundary crossing

A person or selected type of equipment crosses a chosen boundary, optionally in a prohibited direction.

Where and when do boundary crossings recur?

04

Minimum / maximum occupancy

The number of people or selected equipment remains outside the limit chosen by the site.

Where and when do occupancy concerns recur?

What this can support

Make existing physical and procedural controls easier to observe.

Forklift-only and pedestrian-protected areas
Hazardous machinery and process exclusion zones
Loading, staging and material-transfer boundaries
Time-limited work areas where duration matters
Areas with a chosen minimum or maximum headcount

Each alert preserves the observed entry, duration or crossing so the site can review the operating context.

What the area-control result contains

See the condition, duration and location without assigning intent.

Configured condition

The site defines the entry, dwell, crossing or occupancy rule applied to the view.

Reviewable evidence

A timestamped clip and snapshot preserve what the camera observed.

Relevant context

Duration, crossing direction or occupancy count is retained when the selected rule requires it.

Pattern concentration

Confirmed events are organized by area and time for operational review.

See the restricted-zone example →

Illustrative example

See the same bounded method applied to restricted-zone entry.

The public example shows the measured finding, its independent observation basis and a representative site decision without presenting a shorter follow-up as a matched comparison.

8-Week Pilot

Start with one zone, boundary, dwell rule or occupancy condition.

Use a suitable existing camera to confirm one rule can be measured reliably, monitor it live and complete the Safety Control Scan and customer decision record.
