Personnel Directory on Bing Maps

Personnel Directory on Bing Maps

In this webcast a directory of personnel working in a corporate headquarter is demonstrated.

The scenario is a single building with 3 levels being used by Adventure Works for their corporate headquarters.  They have decided to implement the SharePoint Bing Mapper Directory System on their internal corporate portal.  

Although the mapper can be used to map multiple locations and map items, in this scenario it will be used to map employees within the Adventure Works headquarters building.  

The video gives an end user perspective of employee locations.  Though the video shows what The Mapper looks like in action it doesn't cover possible uses for the information.

1. Human Resources can use The Mapper to manage employee locations.  
1. The task of assigning cubes and desks can be managed and tracked from a central location.  
2. When employees are assigned or moved, updates to locations can be tracked through workflow to ensure location information is kept current and that all concerned parties (human resources, managers, facilities, etc) have access to it. 
2. Reception - Using The Mapper, guests or other employees can quickly locate or be given directions to employee location or to meeting rooms.
3. Security - In the event of an emergency, locating an assigned area become a quick and simple task, no longer relying on a key person to be able to give directions.

I hope you enjoyed the demonstration.  I have a couple of upcoming posts I will be putting up when I find the time.  I plan on doing a blog dedicated to the 101 Top Uses for The Mapper and another blog demonstrating using the blogger for a trade show registration.

Thanks Again!
