Table MF_Room

Card of table MF_Room

Name

MF_Room

Dimensional Type

Fact

Comment

Areas and capacities of rooms. This data comes in at the granularity of one row per room. It has no longitudinal/date component.

This fact table has limited utility. Typically, what people will use instead are views such as VMF_RoomUtilization and VMF_RoomUtilizationByDay, which tell us how well we're utilizing bookable space on campus.

This table is uniquely useful, however, in doing things like quickly assembling square footage information on rooms, and on space occupied by various departments.

Area and/or capacity may be NULL. Count will always be 1.
