The RICOH Spaces Mapping System allows organisations to recreate their workplace into a customisable, interactive map, allowing users to zoom, tilt and rotate to locate points of interest throughout the office as well as find their desks and rooms. You can even zoom out of the building to find the surrounding area and landmarks, connecting your workplace to the world around you!
Key Advantages of the RICOH Spaces Mapping System:
High-Fidelity Mapping: Enjoy sharper, more detailed visuals for a clearer and more accurate view of your spaces.
Easy & Interactive Bookings: Navigate, see real-time availability of spaces and book easily.
Detailed Asset Mapping & Points of Interest: The icons displayed on the map enable a quick localisation of valuable assets such as zones, kitchens, toilets, TVs, etc.
Enhanced User Experience: Navigating the office will become even easier and more intuitive, making it faster to find your way around.
Faster Loading Times: Experience quicker load times, ensuring smooth and seamless map transitions.
Seamless Indoor and Outdoor Navigation: Finding your way around the workplace has never been easier with a Google Maps-like experience providing a step-by-step navigation guide to your room, desk, or an entirely different office.
How Does it Work?
Zoom
The map will be set as your homepage by default. To interact with the map you can use the scroll wheel of your mouse to zoom in and out. Alternatively, you can use the ‘+’ and ‘-’ icons in the bottom left corner of the map. If you get stuck, just hit the ‘reset’ button!
Navigation
Navigation is a breeze! To move through the map just click and drag. To select a desk, room, or other point of interest simply click on it.
Pitch and Rotate
Hold a right-click or two-finger pinch (for a laptop trackpad) to pitch and rotate the map - giving you a whole new perspective of your workplace!
Time Change
Want to add that golden morning glow? Or a nighttime noir effect? Now with the mapping system, you can use the new Crescent icon in the bottom right corner to change the time of day reflected on the map
Indoor and Outdoor Navigation
Incorporate a true mapping experience, allowing users to navigate from space to space, both within, and outside the workplace.
Indoor Mapping
Indoor mapping offers the capability to easily navigate from one space to another inside the office. It works by simply clicking on the space you need to find and hit the arrow icon at the top:
This will open the navigation menu. Ensure walking is selected as your method of transport, then select where you would like to navigate to that space from:
Click your space from the list, then the system will provide a blue line navigating you from your starting space to your destination. The side menu will provide all the steps for your journey, along with the option to avoid stairs:
Outdoor Mapping
The capability of navigation goes beyond the workplace and will allow you to easily navigate anywhere. The process is similar but with more transportation options.
To access navigation, click on any space and click the arrow icon:
The space you click will automatically appear in the ‘to’ section. Remove it to clear the section and add new ‘from’ and ‘to’ points:
Choose your ‘from’ and ‘to’ points and get all your navigation steps and blue route on the map:
Additionally, use the icons above the ‘from’ section to change your mode of transport:
Of course, the mapping will also be available on the RICOH Spaces mobile app. Check out the article linked below to learn more!
