Once activated, WiFi data seamlessly integrates into your existing VergeSense dashboards. It is used to power person count metrics at the building, floor, and (if configured) neighborhood level.

• A WiFi icon will indicate where WiFi data is being used instead of sensor data.
• Dashboards clearly differentiate between data sourced from WiFi, Entryway Sensors, or Area Sensors.

People Count: Peak vs. Average

VergeSense provides two primary people count metrics powered by WiFi data:

• Peak Person Count: The maximum number of individuals connected to WiFi during a given period. Useful for understanding demand surges and space constraints.
• Average Person Count: The average number of individuals connected over a time period. Helps assess overall occupancy trends.

These metrics are available for buildings, floors, and eligible neighborhoods.

Weekly Snapshots and Trends Over Time

Weekly occupancy snapshots help workplace teams:

• Track how usage changes across days of the week
• Compare peak and average occupancies over time
• Spot evolving patterns that may affect space planning

You can view this data as:

• Single-week snapshots (with daily granularity)
• Multi-week averages to smooth out anomalies and inform strategy

Heatmaps: Visualizing Usage Across Time and Space

Heatmaps visualize how space is being used based on WiFi connectivity trends. They provide a quick, intuitive way to:

• Identify consistently busy or underused zones
• Visualize temporal patterns in space usage
• Support decisions for neighborhood planning or reallocation

Note: Heatmaps are more informative at the floor or building level. For high-accuracy visualizations of small zones or rooms, VergeSense recommends using Area Sensors in combination with WiFi data.

Images and examples coming soon to illustrate these views within the VergeSense platform.
