The elevator system is configured to control at least one elevator car and to transmit a status message indicating status data of the at least one elevator car. The service provider controller is configured to determine a current operating mode of the at least one elevator car based on the status message and to assign the at least one elevator car to a current status group among a plurality of different status groups based on the current operating mode.

Method for understanding and planning elevator use

A method for determining an elevator landing table from within an elevator car includes obtaining landing index information from a position indicator of an elevator with a landing identification system mounted within the elevator; communicating the landing index information from the position indicator via the landing identification system; and associating the landing index information to a building landing reference to determine a position of the elevator car.
