Venue Capacity Utilization Analysis

2. Scenario Overview

This scenario analyzes venue occupancy and attendance utilization for weddings organized inside the system.

The analysis combines:

• venue capacity information
• wedding bookings
• guest attendance records
• event participation statistics

The generated report provides operational insights regarding:

• occupancy percentage
• attendance efficiency
• available seating capacity
• utilization classification

2.1 Objective

Analyze the relationship between confirmed guest attendance and venue capacity constraints.

The report determines:

• actual occupancy rate
• available seating capacity
• venue utilization level
• attendance efficiency

This analysis combines attendance records, venue specifications, and booking confirmations to establish operational efficiency indicators.

2.2 SQL Query Implementation

SQL Code

SELECT
    v.venue_id,
    v.name AS venue_name,
    v.capacity AS venue_capacity,

    w.wedding_id,

    u.first_name || ' ' || u.last_name
        AS organizer_name,

    w.date AS wedding_date,

    COUNT(DISTINCT a.guest_id)
        AS confirmed_attendees,

    COUNT(
        DISTINCT CASE
            WHEN a.status = 'ATTENDED'
            THEN a.guest_id
        END
    ) AS actual_attendance,

    v.capacity - COUNT(DISTINCT a.guest_id)
        AS available_seats,

    ROUND(
        (
            CAST(COUNT(DISTINCT a.guest_id) AS NUMERIC)
            / v.capacity
        ) * 100,
        2
    ) AS occupancy_rate_percent,

    CASE
        WHEN COUNT(DISTINCT a.guest_id) > v.capacity
            THEN 'EXCEEDED'

        WHEN COUNT(DISTINCT a.guest_id)
            >= (v.capacity * 0.9)
            THEN 'HIGH'

        WHEN COUNT(DISTINCT a.guest_id)
            >= (v.capacity * 0.6)
            THEN 'MODERATE'

        ELSE 'LOW'
    END AS utilization_category,

    vb.status AS booking_status,
    vb.date AS booking_date

FROM venue v

INNER JOIN venue_booking vb
    ON v.venue_id = vb.venue_id

INNER JOIN wedding w
    ON vb.wedding_id = w.wedding_id

INNER JOIN "user" u
    ON w.user_id = u.user_id

LEFT JOIN event e
    ON w.wedding_id = e.wedding_id

LEFT JOIN attendance a
    ON e.event_id = a.event_id
    AND a.status IN ('ATTENDED', 'CONFIRMED')

GROUP BY
    v.venue_id,
    v.name,
    v.capacity,
    w.wedding_id,
    u.first_name,
    u.last_name,
    w.date,
    vb.status,
    vb.date

HAVING COUNT(DISTINCT a.guest_id) > 0

ORDER BY
    v.venue_id,
    w.wedding_id;

2.3 Query Complexity Analysis

• Join Count:
  • 6 tables

• Join Types:
  • INNER JOIN
  • LEFT JOIN

• Aggregate Functions:
  • COUNT(DISTINCT ...)
  • ROUND()
  • CASE

• Filtering Logic:
  • HAVING clause after aggregation

• Conditional Categorization:
  • LOW
  • MODERATE
  • HIGH
  • EXCEEDED

2.4 Relational Algebra Expression

π(
    v.venue_id,
    v.name,
    v.capacity,
    w.wedding_id,
    u.fname,
    u.lname,
    w.date,
    COUNT(a.guest_id),
    v.capacity - COUNT(a.guest_id),
    (COUNT(a.guest_id) / v.capacity) * 100
)

(
    σ(COUNT(guest_id) > 0)

    (
        γ(
            venue_id,
            wedding_id,
            COUNT(DISTINCT a.guest_id)
        )

        (
            (((Venue ⟕ Venue_Booking)
            ⟕ Wedding)
            ⟕ User)
            ⟕ Event)
            ⟕ Attendance
        )
)

Notation

• π = Projection
• σ = Selection
• γ = Grouping and aggregation
• ⟕ = Join operation
• COUNT(DISTINCT ...) = Distinct aggregation

Interpretation

The expression combines venue, booking, wedding, event, and attendance relations in order to calculate venue occupancy metrics.

Aggregation is applied after filtering attendance data, enabling utilization analysis for each wedding event.

• Available Seats:
  • venue capacity minus confirmed attendees

• Occupancy Rate:
  • percentage of occupied seats

• Utilization Category:
  • calculated based on occupancy thresholds

Summary

This scenario demonstrates operational venue analysis using:

• multi-table joins
• attendance aggregation
