Prepare the view
Choose a facilities question and exclude private or inappropriate monitoring areas.
Shared desks, corridors and support areas serve different purposes. A confirmed mapping workflow can summarize their visible use over a defined period, helping teams investigate layouts and circulation. Quiet areas may support valuable work; a camera-based activity map cannot measure effort, output or individual performance.
Catalog workflow. Confirm detector availability, permitted use and event delivery for the proposed deployment. Website examples are illustrative.
Review workplace mapping

The Process
Plan space around observable use. Support space planning with a clearly bounded observation.
Choose a facilities question and exclude private or inappropriate monitoring areas.
Validate the selected visual measure across representative working patterns.
Review comparable periods while noting meetings, shifts and occupancy changes.
Use the findings to discuss space changes with operational stakeholders.
Illustrative demonstration
Example footage and simulated events explain the review workflow. They do not measure detector performance.
No matching events.
EXPLORE WHAT’S POSSIBLE
01 / 04 · WORKPLACE-ACTIVITY MAPS
Teams disagree about whether a circulation route is underused.
Example event: Movement observations remain concentrated on the alternative route.
Operator response: Facilities staff inspect barriers and signage.
Practical value: The discussion focuses on access and layout.

Equipment placement may create repeated crossing movements.
Example event: Activity clusters at a narrow shared preparation point.
Operator response: The laboratory manager reviews task sequences and proposes a layout trial.
Practical value: Movement evidence supports a practical workspace review.

Break-time movement overlaps with a service route.
Example event: Comparable break intervals show concentrated passage activity.
Operator response: Operations coordinates break access and route arrangements.
Practical value: The shared-space issue is examined without ranking workers.
Discuss this capability04 / 04 · WORKPLACE-ACTIVITY MAPS
Cover the relevant shared floor area without including private spaces.
Visibility: Stationary presence may require a different measure from movement.
Configuration: Confirm aggregation support, schedules and camera coverage before selecting metrics.
Privacy: Use aggregate reporting with purpose limits and appropriate workforce notice.
Human review: Never use map intensity alone to assess individual work performance.
Discuss this capabilityFrequently asked questions
Workplace-activity mapping aggregates observable movement or presence across defined work areas for space and circulation review.
No. Focused, stationary or off-camera work may generate little visible movement.
Identity is unnecessary for aggregate space planning and should not be added without a separate justified requirement.
Account for staffing, task mix, duration, schedules and coverage before comparing their maps.
Exclude areas where monitoring is inappropriate or unauthorized. Establish the permitted scope before configuration.
