NorVenue Visitor Count Management Software
NorVenue
'Providing Safety in Numbers'
NorVenue provides centralised count management and monitoring for a venue that has multiple entry and exit points and/or discrete areas such as stands, levels, circles, etc., where it is necessary to monitor total and individual occupancy levels.
PRODUCT FEATURES & BENEFITS
Within a NorVenue system, each entry point (and exit point, if necessary) is individually monitored by one of four counters within an NCT200 counting controller. Each counter can receive count inputs from voltage free contacts in a turnstile or similar entry control system. The NCT200 stores the count values locally and makes them available to the NorVenue software over a network connection.
NorVenue maintains a database of counter identities, count values, alarm thresholds and other user settings. It processes the count information using virtual counters to calculate and store values such as the throughput of each bank of turnstiles, the occupancy levels of individual sections and the overall venue occupancy level. These values can be used to display important summary information on screen and to drive Variable Message Signs that are strategically placed around the venue to ensure that officials and visitors are aware of the current situation.
In addition, the stadium administrator, safety officer and other key officials have access to a wealth of useful information including real-time occupancy data, early indications of potential problems and a continuous count log to facilitate the statical analysis of visitor and spectator arrival patterns, attendance, section utilisation, etc.

Real-Time Crowd Monitoring for Stadiums, Arenas and Large Public Venues
NorVenue delivers the centralised occupancy management that safety officers and venue administrators need to maintain control during events of any size. Purpose-built for sports stadiums, concert arenas, exhibition centres, conference facilities and any venue where monitoring crowd density is critical, the software processes count data from turnstiles and entry gates to provide section-by-section and total venue occupancy in real time.
Each entry point connects to an NCT200 counting controller that captures turnstile activations and feeds data to NorVenue over the network. The software calculates throughput rates, section capacities and overall attendance, displaying this information on a graphical venue plan that gives operators immediate visibility of developing situations. Variable message signs positioned around the venue can display real-time counts to stewards and the public, while audible alarms alert control room staff when sections approach capacity thresholds—enabling early intervention before problems develop.
Safety
Monitors occupancy by section to prevent overcrowding and support regulatory compliance.
Venue Plan
Graphical interface displays real-time counts against venue layout for instant situational awareness.
Early Warning
Pre-alarm and alarm thresholds trigger alerts before sections reach capacity limits.
Reporting
Count logging supports analysis of arrival patterns, attendance tracking and section utilisation.
NorVenue is optimised for event venues like stadiums and arenas where safety compliance and section-by-section monitoring is critical, while NorParc focuses on parking guidance and multi-level car park management.
Yes, each NCT200 counter receives count inputs from voltage-free contacts in turnstiles or entry control systems, making it compatible with most existing infrastructure.
NorVenue supports up to 32 NCT200 counting modules with 128 physical counters total, plus unlimited virtual counters for calculating section and zone totals.
Yes, NorVenue counts physical entries regardless of ticket type or validation method, providing accurate attendance data for all visitor categories including VIPs, staff and general admission.
The software supports audible alarms and can trigger up to 8 alarm outputs per NCT200 module when counts reach preset thresholds, enabling automated responses like signage changes or notifications.
