As we explore analytics, understanding thresholds becomes pivotal in comprehending the data presented by XY Sense.
Data filtration within the platform is conducted through the utilization of what we term "thresholds." These thresholds serve as a critical means to ascertain the usage of spaces—particularly in distinguishing between collaboration spaces and workpoints.
For collaboration spaces, default thresholds are established, mandating a minimum of 10 minutes of usage within an hour to qualify as utilized space. This parameter intends to exclude brief, non-functional usage instances such as personal calls or temporary waits for meeting rooms to become available. Similarly, for a day's utilization, the criterion is set at 60 minutes within the entire day to be considered as actively used space.
Regarding workpoints, the hourly threshold requires a minimum of five minutes of occupancy within an hour to categorize the space as utilized. For the full-day utilization, the condition stands at a minimum of 30 minutes throughout the day for it to be accounted as effectively utilized.
To illustrate, consider the example of desk number one tracked for utilization between 7 am and 11 am. The analysis reveals intermittent utilization throughout the hours. Instances where the space remained inactive for less than the specified thresholds were categorized as non-utilized, while longer durations of activity were marked as utilized.
In this scenario, despite intermittent usage, the cumulative total usage for the day was 165 minutes, surpassing the 30-minute threshold, thereby marking the space as active for the day.
Further analysis computes the total time utilized during the observed period, amounting to 165 minutes or 2.75 hours. When evaluating utilization percentage, dividing the actively used spaces by the total available spaces demonstrates a 60% utilization rate.
This depth of analysis enables a comprehensive understanding of space utilization, aiding in strategic decision-making and optimization.
