A people map is provided on a server which corresponds to the spatial distribution of the persons, and by the spatial distribution of persons as a function of time, a motion profile of the persons is provided. Depending on the current position of the present persons, the motion profile of the present persons, and the current use of the facilities, all or individual persons obtain information generated by the server that can effect a redirection of the persons, so that use of a capacity of the facility can be optimized.
