How Many People Fit in an Assembly Area?
Draw a closed area on your EasySiteSI site plan, turn on Capacity (estimate), and the app estimates how many people fit from the area and a density per square metre. It is a planning estimate only — not an approved capacity.

How the estimate works
EasySiteSI measures the drawn area in square metres, then multiplies by a density you choose in the area properties (named presets plus a custom option). The result is shown as an estimated number of people on the map and can appear in exports when capacity is enabled.
Steps
- Draw the area. Trace a closed area for your muster point or assembly area on the satellite map.
- Name it. Use a clear name such as Assembly Point.
- Turn on Capacity (estimate). Open the area properties and enable Capacity (estimate), then choose a density preset.
- Read the estimate. Check the estimated headcount against the approved capacity for the venue or site, exits and your emergency plan.
