It provides a standardized way of fetching badging, occupancy, air quality and temperature data from workplace hardware or sensors in Workplace Service Delivery.\n\n## Key features\n\n-   Configure multiple hardware or sensor data providers \\(for example multiple badging vendors, occupancy sensors, air quality and temperature sensors\\).\n-   Create extension points to transform data from workplace hardware or sensor to a vendor agnostic format. For more information, see [Creating and adding a scripted extension point](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/api-reference/web-services/impl-scripted-ext-pts-base-code.md).\n-   Provide employee badging data analytics and metrics to optimize workplace space occupancy.\n-   Space Occupancy metrics dashboard to view analytics based on employee headcount and office space usage.\n-   Configure reservation automatic check-in based on the Space Occupancy data insights.\n-   Provide Occupancy sensor data for workplace locations. View and manage your reservations on the location directory based on occupancy and reservation statuses.\n-   Monitor indoor pollutants including Particulate Matter \\(PM1 & PM2.5\\) and air borne chemicals \\(Volatile Organic Compounds or VOCs\\), relative humidity levels, temperature, and Carbon dioxide \\(CO2\\) levels in a building or workplace.\n-   Reduced operating costs of workplaces or building maintenance with better air quality and optimum levels of humidity. Reduced particulate matter in the air reduces energy consumption of a building.\n\n**Parent Topic:**[Workplace Connectors](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/employee-service-management/workplace-connectors/workplace-connectors-landing-page.md)\n\n**Previous topic:**[Workplace Connectors](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/employee-service-management/workplace-connectors/workplace-connectors-landing-page.md)\n\n**Next topic:**[Configure Workplace Connectors](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/employee-service-management/workplace-connectors/configure-workplace-connectors.md)\n\n"}}
