POI list column data

If room IDs in the CAD files are similar across floor plans/buildings, then the floors need to be identifiable. This is done by setting the POI prefixes the POI import main page. Typically the POI-prefix is the building ID + floor level, and the Floor Prefix label is to applied to column in the POI list that matches this.

Note: Some customers may have a preference to how their Floor Prefixes are formatted. Floor Prefixes can affect the campus linkable tags format (which they may be using with their other integrations like timetables, resource booking, library solutions etc.)

The room IDs that matches the labels in room polygons in the floor plan CAD file.

The POI names. Often this label is connected to the “Room ID” column.
You can drag the “Searchable Name” label to multiple columns to make more more names searchable for each POI.
Note that the names in one searchable name column will be used as the title of the POI in the POI card (when a POI has been clicked). This column has the highest priority set in the JSON config. Your CSM can help you out with getting the JSON priorities right.

The room type / category (e.g. Accessible Toilet, Office, Corridor etc).
When applying this label, the room types from the POI list (called “External types”), can be used to set up the POI categories under the menu “Types”.

Note: Our system can only operate with one type per POI, so this label should only been applied to one column.

The identifiers are the unique location codes for each POI/room. Typically a concatenation of campus ID, building ID and room ID. These are used to set up linkable tags where one part of the URL to a POI stays fixed and just the last part (the identifier) changes:
