Map neighborhoods on floorplans
Grouping locations allows users to identify zones or neighborhoods.
Users can find a space based on multiple search criteria (Workplace app + GO).
For example I’m looking for a workplace (or meeting room) AND in the HR Neighbourhood AND
close to coffee,
with lots of lights
with dual monitors
…
As an admin, you can create endless types of space groups and assign Workplace locations.
A location can be assigned to multiple groups. These groups will be available in:
Search criteria
Real-Time Floorplan
In short: Create a zone in Studio and link locations to that zone. Set a color that will highlight this zone on live floor plans in Go and Workplace App. Per floor, only relevant zones will be shown.
How to access
Login with your credentials
Select Setting > Location Grouping in studio
Zones
As a default, there is 1 Zone Category with name “Zones” available in Workplace.
Set a meaningful name for your zones
Add locations to your zones
Set a color that will highlight this zone on live floor plans in Go and Workplace App.
Next to being able to filter Search results or visualize Zones on all Workplace touch points, Zones
are also available as a filter on Dashboards
actually they are a intricately tied in with Occupancy monitoring, as you can see in Space monitor
can also be used in Role based reservation scope definition, see https://spacewell.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/KB/pages/492801/Roles+Profiles#Environment-Specific-Roles
Groups
An admin can create endless types of groups which results in infinite types of mapping layers on the floor plans.
A user can search for rooms or workplaces or view on floor plan, based on a specific feature of that location:
e.g. neighborhoods, zones, departments, teams, types
e.g. rooms with windows, rooms nearby emergency exit
Create a new Group Category
Set a meaningful name for your underlying groups, that will differentiate the features between the locations
Add locations to your groups
Set a color that will highlight this set of locations on live floor plans in Go and Workplace App.
Next to being able to filter Search results or visualize Location Grouping on all Workplace touch points, Groups
can also be used in Role based reservation scope definition, see https://spacewell.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/KB/pages/492801/Roles+Profiles#Environment-Specific-Roles
are saved in the time slot data. They are available as a filter in the Space monitor
Location Grouping Import / Export
Some tips & tricks on Location Grouping Import / Export:
When in “Zones”, the export will contain all the Zones and their configuration
When in “Groups”, the export will contain all Group Categories for which at least 1 group has been defined (in other words: will list the same Group Categories for which you also see the import/export buttons in Studio)
It’s not possible to create a Group Category through import
It is possible to create a Group through import, just leave the Group ID field empty
It’s not possible to remove a Group Category or a Group through import
To remove all locations from a Group, just keep 1 row with an empty Location ID field
