Enhancing Passenger Flow at Paris CDG: SNCF Gares & Connexions Partners with Outsight

Outsight is supporting SNCF Gares & Connexions in a strategic initiative to optimize passenger movement and accessibility at Train Station inside Paris Charle de Galle Airport Terminal 2.

Through the deployment of Outsight’s real-time 3D LiDAR-based software, this collaboration brings a new level of precision and insight into how people move within complex transportation environments.

Spanning 4,000 m² across two key levels of the Paris CDG station, the initiative leverages 3D sensing technology to anonymously process spatial data and deliver high-value insights into human flow and mobility patterns—all while ensuring that no personal identifiers are captured

Outsight, Sice and FGV partner to use 3D Spatial Intelligence for Train Stations in Spain

Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat Valenciana (FGV), has launched a LiDAR-Based pilot project for rail stations in collaboration with Outsight and SICE, a leader in infrastructure management.

As highlighted by SNCF Gares & Connexions in their announcement:

"With LiDAR, we'll be able to know exactly how busy a station concourse is, as well as counting the number of people entering or leaving a store. This data will enable us to make the most of the commercial spaces in our stations."– Philippe Dujardin, Head of Foresight and Programming at SNCF Gares & Connexions

Thanks to Outsight's Spatial AI solution, operators now benefit from accurate detection of mobility trends, including wheelchair access and crowd density. The software platform provides both real-time and historical data to anticipate congestion, optimize resource allocation, and improve operational efficiency. These insights also support infrastructure planning and enhanced customer service strategies.

The system uses laser pulses to detect and understand motion, delivering anonymous, real-time Spatial Intelligence that fully complies with data privacy standards.

LiDAR Transforming the Railway Industry

Conventional sensors like cameras and radars struggle to meet the complex demands of the rail industry due to their numerous limitations and potential operational challenges.

This deployment at Paris Charles de Gaulle is a strong example of how Spatial Intelligence can reshape public infrastructure. By making environments smarter, safer, and more accessible, Outsight’s 3D LiDAR-based software is helping mobility operators like SNCF Gares & Connexions improve passenger experience at scale—now and into the future.

As demand grows for scalable, data-driven tools in public transport, partnerships like this one demonstrate the value of Spatial Intelligence in meeting the operational and societal challenges of modern mobility hubs.
