An overview of the occupancy panels & occupancy zones

The Occupancy Panel

The occupancy panel provides detailed occupancy and utilisation statistics across the building, floor or asset selected. Designed to give you both a high-level summary and more customised analytics, the panel can be extended to include trend analytics across multiple departments and buildings. The Occupancy panel can be broken down into five subpanels: 

  1. The Occupancy Overview

  2. Occupancy Utilisation

  3. Occupancy Comparison 

  4. Occupancy Utilisation by Day or Hour

  5. Meeting Room Utilisation Ranking

Panels 2-5 can be set up by clicking on the icon at the bottom of the Occupancy Overview.

 

Occupancy Overview

The occupancy summary is driven by the Accordion, as denoted by the “Dynamic” reference in the bottom right hand corner. This allows you to change the summary based on the building, floor, asset group or individual asset selected.

Utilisation Time: Last hour, 24 hours, week, month, or custom time period.

 

 

Occupancy Zone Setup

The occupancy panel retrieves information from Occupancy zones which are configured on the map within the map edit mode. Each occupancy zone stores information such as the number of seats, type of space, and the department that the occupancy zone falls in.

 

To set up an occupancy zone: 

  • Navigate to the area on the accordion where you would like to set up an occupancy zone. 

  • Open the Map Edit Mode toolbox

  • Click on ‘Occupancy’ 

  • Draw the occupancy zone on the map using the cursor. Every click creates a point to which the line will be drawn until the original point which completes the zone. 

  • Configure the occupancy zone:
    Department: The department this zone falls into e.g Finance
    Space Type: Whether the space is a desk or a meeting space.
    Seats: The number of seats within this location

  • Click Save.
