Core TSIs : Agile Workplace Management : Agile Workplace Management - Concepts : Availability
Availability
Availability indicates whether a location is actually available for use/reservable. The availability is based on comparing the physical occupancy status and the reservation status.

The bottom layer represents the presentation layer, which is display-only.
When comparing the location’s reservation status and the occupancy status, the reservation status is leading.
For non-reservable (work)spaces, an active measurement point determines a location's availability.
For reservable (work)spaces, availability can be determined based on reservations or on active measurement points.
Example
Consider the following situations:
Availability matrixAvailability matrix
Location A
(checked for No Show and Early Departure)
Reserved, Not occupied
During the specified idle time, the location remains unavailable.
After the idle time, the room is made available again.
Location B
Not reserved, not occupied
Available
Location C
Reserved, Occupied
Not available
Location D
Not reserved, Occupied
Not available

If you want to use sensor data for determining availability, in practise this means that a (work)space is unavailable if there is
•    An active reservation
•    A person is inside the (work)space.
