The cemeteries become a real labyrinth. Like the maze of the minotaur, a company has come to create its own breadcrumb trail. The GESCIME company offers local authorities a guidance service in the form of digital terminals. These terminals are present at the entrance to the cemeteries and they blend into the decor. Indeed, they are dressed in the colors of the municipality in which they are installed and their use is rather simple. The touch screen is sufficiently illuminated to allow operation at night. It also allows quick navigation with the help of an integrated manual.
These digital terminals are real maps that help people find the burial they want, whether the name sought is a family member or that of a famous person. In addition to the guidance function, they make it possible to indicate the prices of the concessions and the time remaining before their transfer to the city. A significant investment for these communities since to obtain a digital terminal it is necessary to pay no less than 20,000 euros. These terminals are robust and are resistant to all types of weather.
A question arises. Is the installation of these bollards at the entrance to cemeteries really useful? For communities that have taken the plunge, the difference is stark. The graves are more ornate, and the abandoned ones are no longer so.
