Behavior Metrics
Workspaces Vertical: Campus-level computation is implemented for the Workspaces vertical. Earlier, network nodes in the location hierarchy were used to derive metrics. To improve the quality of the data reported for the Workspaces vertical, campus nodes are used to track visits and derive insights. In most real-time deployments for enterprises and universities, people move between multiple buildings that are close by within a campus. This behavior of people moving between networks is the motivation behind moving to campus node as the single contiguous space to track visits and derive insights.
-
If you select a campus node from the Location option, campus average is displayed for the following charts: Workday Duration, Employee Frequency, Density Index, Entry Time and Exit Time charts.
-
New floor and zone level charts are added. Select a network location to see the following charts:
-
Presence by Floor/Zone
-
% Share by Floor/Zone
-
Density by Floor/Zone
-
Visit Duration by Floor/Zone
Note
By default, the campus and group location data are displayed at the root-level view. Network location data is displayed when no campus location is defined in the location hierarchy.
-
Education Vertical: Support for a new vertical called Education is added in the Behavior Metrics app. All the key charts reflect information based on student metrics. The Education vertical chart resembles all the metrics similar to the Workspaces vertical.
