-
- How to use this tool:
-
- Room data
-
- Enter the data about the area you wish to study. You can find these in GIS, or by measuring them yourself.
- For mechanical ventilation, you should check with a specialist for the air flow or air change rate.
-
- Event data
-
- Enter the total number of people and how many you assume are infected.
-

How to use this tool:
+
Room data
+ Enter the data about the area you wish to study. You can find these figures in GIS Portal, or by measuring them yourself.
+
Ventilation data
+ Enter the data on the available means for venting of indoor spaces. For mechanical ventilation, you should check with a specialist for the air flow or air change rate.
+
Event data
+ Enter the total number of occupants in the room and how many of them you assume are infected. We have provided common activity types:
+ Office = typical scenario all persons seated, talking.
+ Workshop = assembly workshop environment, all persons doing light exercise, talking.
+ Training = one person (the trainer) standing, talking, all others seated, talking quietly (whispering). It is assumed the trainer is the infected person, for the worst case scenario.
+You should specify if the event is a one off (give date) or recurrent use of the same space for the same activity, in which case select the month when the activity takes place.
+ Specify if a lunch break should be included, and when it starts/stops.
+ If you will take coffee breaks, they are spread out evenly throughout the day, in addition to lunch.
+ Mask wearing: Specify if they are worn at occupant workstations, or are removed when a physical distance of 2m is respected.
