Hot tip in the US. In an elevator the floor with the star is the ground floor, regardless of what number is present. This helps clarify any confusion between systems and also is clear for locations that have floors below the ground floor (I've most commonly seen this with parking structures)

In Sweden, maybe the rest of the EU, the entrance floor (entrevåning) has a green ring around it.

I've seen it in most European countries
