# Space Usage Overview

## Identify and categorize space categories, programs, and usages.

---

### **Introduction**

An Archilogic model is a spatial 3D data model of the physical space.

Archilogic's spatial data conforms to the following structure:

- A **model** is a reflection of a single **floor** in a building 
    - A **floor** can have one or more **space categories:** [office](https://help.archilogic.com/knowledge/space-categories-and-definitions#Office), residential, parking
    - A **floor** contains one or many **spaces** 
          - A **space** can have none or many **assets**
          - A **space** can have a designated **usage** assigned

This structure ensures that data is organized and addressable for efficient analysis.

In the following pages, you can find the standard definition of space usage in each of the space categories & programs.
