01Prepare the view
Map each desk without viewing screens.
Understand which desks are occupied
Define each workstation and distinguish a person from bags, coats or equipment. Validate the view before using aggregate occupancy periods to review desk provision, cleaning or booking assumptions.
Catalog workflow. Confirm detector availability, permitted use and event delivery for the proposed deployment. Website examples are illustrative.

How It Works
Seat presence is not work performance Compare seat demand with available workspaces.

02Assess the observation
Validate person-versus-object occupancy.
03Review the evidence
Review aggregate occupied periods and visibility gaps.
04Choose a response
Compare with booking and facilities needs.

| Dimension |  Desk Occupancy |  Workspace utilization analysis |
|---|---|---|
| Observation |  A person appears at a defined desk position. | Occupancy or usage duration within defined workspace regions. |
| Event criteria | A supported method identifies occupation of the configured desk region. | Supported aggregation summarizes the selected usage metric over time. |
| Monitoring setup | Confirm desk boundaries, temporary absence and object handling. | Confirm space type, measurement period and coverage. |
| What it cannot establish | Cannot determine productivity, booking ownership or hours worked. | Cannot measure employee productivity or explain preferences by itself. |
| Practical outcome | Help workplace teams understand seat demand without scoring employees. | Help planners test whether space provision matches observed demand. |

Offices
Bookings overstate actual seat use.
Example event: Some reserved desks appear unoccupied.
Operator response: Compare aggregate booking patterns.
Practical value: Supports desk planning.

Coworking
Bags are left on empty seats.
Example event: An object resembles occupancy.
Operator response: Check classification samples.
Practical value: Improves metric reliability.

Deployment review
See seats while avoiding screen content.
Visibility: Partitions and chairs obscure occupants.
Configuration: Validate desk mapping and temporary-absence rules.
Privacy: Do not use seat time as individual productivity scoring.
Human review: Check bookings and work patterns.

Frequently asked questions
Desk Occupancy, Explained.
Estimates whether a defined desk or workstation is visibly occupied.
Does an occupied desk mean productive work?
No. Presence cannot establish output.
Can a bag create a false occupied result?
Yes. Validate object handling.
Does an empty desk mean absence?
No. Work may occur elsewhere.
Is screen monitoring needed?
No. This task concerns occupancy, not screen content.
