You may want to enhance your app with interactive floor plans to help users easily locate resources in your space and visually select preferred available areas, while enabling administrators to track space utilization visually.
Floor plans come as an add-on and are available on specific plans.
Prerequisites
Before ordering floor plans add-on for your app, make sure to prepare the following:
Add all resources that you have in the space on the relevant pages (Rooms, Desks, Offices) of each location in the app. Set up desks by zones or individual seats.
Prepare a plan for each floor with the names of all rooms, desks, and offices stated on the image in the same way you have them named in your app.
Ensure the floor plan is in a standard straight (vertical or horizontal) orientation and not at an angle.
Clearly display each resource that should be bookable separately with its boundaries outlined.
All resources on the floor plan must be labeled. If you have some desks that require bookings by seats, your floor plan must include the name for each seat. If any resources aren't labeled with names, they will be made interactive based on our designer's definition. Changing it later will incur a fee.
Example of a proper floor scheme:
Calculate the area of each floor in square meters.
Ways to show desks on floor plans
By zones
If desks are organized by zones in your space, and you want users to book a seat in the zone they like without choosing a specific seat, create each zone as a desk with a certain seating capacity.
The resources set up by zones will appear as follows on the floor plan. Users will be able to select a zone and book one or multiple seats in it.
By individual seats
If you want to allow users to select and book a specific seat they prefer and display the availability for each specific seat, create each seat as a separate desk with the seating capacity of "1".
The resources set up by individual seats will appear as follows on the floor plan. Users will be able to select a specific seat they prefer and book it.
