View Location Information
Use the Map tab (Cisco Spaces ) to view the selected location, campus, building and floor information on the map.
If you select the root location, the default world map is displayed.
However, in some instances, the map automatically zooms into the precise location on the map and is displayed with a plotter icon. You can click on the plotter icon to view the additional information such as location address, total area, maximum capacity, time zone details and so on. The precise location is plotted based on the latitude and longitude information.
If you select a building, the default world map is displayed.
If you select a floor, the exact floor map image is displayed. Use the Polygon tool () to create zones. For more information, see Create a Zone.
Depending on the location you select, view the following information:
