My research is on the spatial quality of an urban traditional extended family compound.
Would i need to use this method in establishing design indicators for its sustainable spatial quality?
try to find this article I think it will be useful:

Hi Umar. Behavioural mapping will allow you to see and examine the activity patterns of the users. Who uses which spaces and when they use the spaces. Based on the distribution and concentration of activities, you may then query why certain spaces are more frequently used than others, and vice versa, why some spaces are not used at all. This then can lead you to examine the spatial quality of and around those specific areas. For instance, we may assume people use certain spaces because of some common reasons. But when we speculate the spaces in detail, we may find other reasons.
