Services offered by UW-IT to the University of Washington community

SpaceScout

Service Description: 

Currently, SpaceScout™ allows any student with an iOS device or access to a Web browser to quickly and easily locate campus spaces. Students can search by locating spaces on a map, or by specifying search criteria: type of space, capacity, hours available, whether the space can be reserved, location, noise level, lighting, learning resources (whiteboard, etc.), and proximity to food/coffee. Photos of each space help students choose exactly what they’re looking for.

At present, the app includes over 200 spaces in 26 buildings that span the UW-Seattle campus north to south and east to west. New spaces are constantly being added, and will include the UW-Tacoma and Bothell campuses in the future. With building renovations, remodels, and upgrades continually changing the landscape of learning resources on campus, SpaceScout™ provides a single place to go for up-to-date information on spaces that can help students accomplish their work.

SpaceScout™ was designed specifically for UW students, so you can quickly locate campus spaces that meet your needs right from your iOS device (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/spacescout/id551472160?ls=1&mt=8) or the Web: http://spacescout.uw.edu/
