Behavior Mapping Data Collection Guide

Behavior mapping allows observers to study people's activities in an area over a set period of time. The observer documents both stationary activities like sitting, talking, and reading as well as active behaviors such as walking, jogging, and biking. The observer uses a data collection form to record the activities, locations, ages, genders and group sizes of the people observed.
