Traffic count, or traffic flow measurement, is the process of obtaining data on the number of people passing by a certain location, e.g., a cafe or a point of sales, for a given period. The more traffic flow a location has, the more people will see your signboard and visit your store.
Pedestrian traffic is one of the key criteria when selecting locations for street or food retail stores. This indicator affects sales volume and revenue. The most accurate way to measure traffic is to take a video of the entrance area and count how many people have passed by in a given period (e.g., an hour or a day).
