The pragmatic view: booking plus check-in data answers most workplace questions at a fraction of the cost of sensor coverage, and sensors add precision where the stakes justify it, such as high-cost floors or lighting and HVAC automation. Many organisations start with the data they already generate and add sensors selectively.
