Rethinking Campus Space<\/span><\/span><\/p>\nThe University of Amsterdam (UvA), one of Europe\u2019s leading research universities, is driving innovation in campus operations by rethinking how space is used across its facilities. In collaboration with Officebooking, UvA has launched a large-scale sensor-based project to monitor and optimise study space utilisation while enhancing the daily experience of students and staff.

Through the Officebooking app, students can easily find available study spaces, filter by preferences and navigate using built-in wayfinding. Staff can also book meeting rooms, creating a unified and future-proof platform for space reservation.

\nThis initiative also supports UvA\u2019s new University Library, now in its final construction phase. Additional sensors will be installed to optimise the availability of study and meeting spaces, all in line with UvA\u2019s strict privacy policies\u2014paving the way for a smarter, more connected campus.
