In July last year, Hefei started the construction of elevator safety supervision information system, and combined with modern information technologies such as GIS, Internet of Things and big data, a "one platform and two systems" was built in the first phase, namely, elevator comprehensive big data platform, elevator supervision system and emergency response system. At present, the system has been basically completed and will be put into operation soon. The unique signs of more than 50,000 elevators in the city are being posted and are expected to be posted before the end of May. Information such as elevator number, QR code and rescue telephone number are marked on the signboard, which is convenient for passengers to ask for help in case of elevator failure, and the maintenance or rescue team can quickly rush to the scene to deal with it.
