Gas stations

Understand car counts, service time and dwell per car, then track queues, pump-bay use and traffic flow to improve station operations.

Questions worth measuring

Count cars entering and exiting the station and identify peak periods.
Measure service time and each car’s dwell at the pump bay and across the station.
Monitor queue length and waiting time, with alerts when defined thresholds are exceeded.
Measure pump-bay utilization, occupied and idle time, and vehicle throughput.
Identify cars that join a queue but leave before reaching a pump.
Measure attendant response from bay arrival to the first observable assistance.
Track vehicle flow and blocked lanes around entrances, exits and pumps.
Compare shifts within one station; compare branches only when multiple branches are available.

Relevant industry metrics

Recommendations for attendant deployment, queue management, pump-bay use and traffic flow. Total station dwell runs from entry to exit; pump-bay dwell runs from bay arrival to departure and includes service and other delays, rather than isolating fuel-dispensing time. Queue abandonment indicates potential lost demand. Measures depend on camera coverage and event validation. Shifts can be compared within one station; branch comparisons apply only when multiple branches are available, using consistent definitions and comparable periods.

AI & decision support

From indicators to a clearer understanding.

AI tools help explain car counts, service and dwell time, queues and alerts, pump-bay utilization, queue abandonment, attendant response, traffic flow and blocked lanes. They summarise differences between shifts within one station and between branches only when multiple branches are available, supporting operational decisions within the available data.
