Provided is an elevator system capable of protecting the privacy of users. The elevator system includes: a plurality of in-car communication devices provided in a plurality of respective cars; and a group management device configured to, when an in-car communication device in a car that has arrived at a hall receives identification information from a portable terminal by wireless communication and when the car is not a car to which a call has been allocated on the basis of input from the portable terminal corresponding to the identification information, cause the in-car communication device in the car to transmit information indicating that a user has gotten on a wrong car to the portable terminal by wireless communication.

The present application relates to an elevator system and a method of adapting an elevator system, the system being adapted to warn elevator users of the existence of a vertical misalignment between a floor of a lift car and a landing surface adjacent to which the lift car stops. The elevator system comprises facing parallel walls that depend vertically downwards from a leading edge of the lift car floor and a leading edge of the landing surface respectively. A luminaire is mounted on at least one of said walls at a distance below the edge of said wall so as to face the opposing wall irrespective of said vertical misalignment. Light from said luminaire illuminates said opposing walls to alert elevator users to the existence of said vertical misalignment.

An analysis method and a measurement system for surveying an elevator shaft of an elevator system wherein the elevator shaft is surveyed by a measurement system having a camera system and an inertial measurement unit having acceleration and angular rate sensors, i.e. designed as an optically inertial measurement system. On the basis of the measured data, a digital model of the elevator shaft is created. Further information on the position of the measurement system in a main extension direction of the elevator shaft, in addition to the information from the acceleration and angular rate sensors of the inertial measurement unit, is recorded and evaluated to create the digital model. In this way, a particularly accurate digital model of the elevator shaft is created.
