How Antea Group Monitored Crowd, Traffic, and Security at a Large Music Festival in the Netherlands

A major music festival brings hundreds of thousands of people, a road network that exists for a weekend, and a safety picture that changes by the hour. Ground cameras and marshals each see their own patch of it, and by the time a crowd builds at a gate or traffic backs up on an access road, the window to act on it is already closing. In this NestGen session, Antea Group and Geodirect will share how drones monitored crowd density, traffic flow, and security across a major music festival in the Netherlands, and what municipal and security teams should think through when using aerial monitoring to run a large event site.
