1. A method for generating paths in a building space, the method comprising:
retrieving, by a processing circuit, a heatmap for the building space, the heatmap comprising a plurality of grid locations, wherein the plurality of grid locations correspond to locations in the building space and comprise occupant density data of the locations in the building space;
generating, by the processing circuit, a plurality of vectors, the plurality of vectors defined by a first grid location and a second grid location of the plurality of grid locations, wherein generating the plurality of vectors comprises comparing occupant density data for the first grid location to occupant density data for the second grid location;
determining, by the processing circuit, a subset of vectors from the plurality of vectors based on a proximity of the plurality of vectors to a selected vector of the plurality of vectors;
combining, by the processing circuit, the subset of vectors to generate a merge location, wherein the merge location is used to adjust at least one of the first grid location or the second grid location of at least one vector in the subset of vectors; and
at least one of controlling building equipment that serve the building space or providing navigation directions to a user device based on a path generated from at least one vector of the subset of vectors.
