Facility utilization

Room sizing and building-level use. Big rooms holding small classes waste space even when they’re booked; this surfaces the size mismatch and names the biggest under-used rooms.

Seat fill by room size (Georgia Tech, Fall 2022)

Average enrollment as a share of capacity. A steep drop means big rooms sit half-empty — a class-size ↔ room-size mismatch.

Biggest under-used rooms

Large rooms (capacity ≥ 50) with the least scheduled use — the highest-value targets for consolidation or reassignment.

Capacity is inferred as the largest class that actually enrolled in a room (the scheduled cap is unreliable — “unlimited” sentinels, placeholder sections), and classes with no enrollment are excluded. Seat-fill is measured against that observed peak. Buildings need ≥ 2 rooms to list.
