Placer.ai’s Industrial dataset provides insights into employee foot traffic analytics and workforce trends, serving as a proxy for factory production trends. The dataset operates on the assumption that the number of shifts correlates with factory output, enabling users to analyze workforce patterns such as shift fluctuations (e.g., whether shifts are increasing or decreasing) and assess how close a facility is to full capacity.

The dataset covers a wide variety of industries, including Aerospace & Defense, Autos, Building Materials, Industrial Equipment, Logistics, Metals & Mining.
