Space Data Resources

The following resources are used in the collection, allocation, and reporting of facilities space information:

Space Survey Website: http://spacesurvey.asu.edu

The Space Survey is used to collect and update information related to the ASU facilities inventory. It is administered thru the on-line website. The website may be accessed year round by persons authorized by their department/unit to serve as a space coordinator.
Requests for access should be sent by departments to survey@asu.edu.

Certification of space data is required every year from October 1st thru December 31st, and is used to verify space information, to include: building and room number, room function, square footage, occupancy information (both personnel and departmental), and research grant information.

Space data is used in the University's Annual 7-11 report to the Arizona Board of Regents, and also for determining campus space management requirements.
