These new features are introduced in Cisco Spaces beta UI for Cisco Spaces: Space Utilization App:

Heat Maps

The Space Utilization App now introduces Heat Maps, offering a new method to visualize historical occupancy trends and the utilization of physical spaces. The heatmap is displayed directly on top of the 3D Digital Map, allowing you to gain a spatial understanding of occupancy density and utilization patterns in an immersive manner.

Key Highlights

• Heat Map Visualization: A visual, color-coded representation of historical occupancy density at the floor level, displayed over the 3D Digital Map and helps to understand which areas of a floor have been most or least utilized over time.

• Multi-Dimensional Analysis: View heat maps for each day of the month, day of the week, or hour of the day to identify trends and analyze occupancy patterns and utilization trends across different time periods.

The benefits include:

• Identify historically underutilized and high-traffic zones.

• Make informed decisions about space reallocation or redesign.

• Complement traditional chart views with intuitive, map-based visualizations using the 3D Digital Map.

• Gain spatial insights to optimize workspace allocation and enhance the visitor experience.

Interactive Map

The Space Utilization App now features Interactive Maps, which provide fast and intuitive geographic visualization of locations such as campuses, buildings, and floors on a global map. This feature displays occupancy and utilization metrics with dynamic markers and color-coded clusters. This enables you to gain quick insights at multiple levels.

Key Highlights

• Seamlessly switch between global, campus, building, and floor-level perspectives with dynamic clustering.

• Color-coded Markers representing key metrics such as people count, time spent, and percentage utilization.

• Smart Map Controls, zooming, and informative panels that facilitate rapid exploration of your spaces.

This enhancement is made in the Cisco Spaces beta UI:

Network Map Calibration

The Network Map Calibration tool enables precise alignment of 2D network map images with 3D Digital Maps. You can access the tool from the Digital Map Editor, allowing you to precisely place GPS markers ensuring client and access point positions are accurately represented.

The Network Map Calibration link is enabled in the user interface only for maps that have associated network maps.
