What is the Student housing target indicator?

The Student housing target indicator calculates the number of student houses that are added to the project current situation and relates this to the total target of student houses. The indicator is a variation on the Housing_target_(Indicator) This indicator is useful for projects where for example:

  • A shortage of student housing is noted in the project area
  • one of the goals of the project is to accomodate more students in the area

The total amount of student houses that needs to be available is adjustable, this makes it useful for all types of projects.

The indicator panel shows the two different types of housing, the number of houses that are built in the neighborhood and the targets for the social housing and the total target.

Calculation

The indicator calculates the difference in houses between the planned and original state of the project. Houses in the Tygron Platform are called Units. A building block is not necessarily one unit. You can see the number of units when clicking on a building in the 3D world. Only units of the type studenflats and 10% of social housing are being taken into account. The total target can be adjusted.

Score

The score is represented in a progress bar, with a scale from 0 to 100%. Determine if you want to calculate the absolute or relative score.

Additional configurations

For this indicator to function, a new Global has to be defined to set the total housing target. Read below for the steps.
