1. A method of tracking and reporting locations of enterprise resources, the method for use with at least a first interface device including a user input device and a display screen, the method comprising the steps of: providing a processor programmed to perform the steps of: storing schedules of enterprise resources where the schedules indicate scheduled locations of enterprise resources during time slots;identifying a location of the first interface device;identifying a location of at least one of the enterprise resource at the current time and determining a relative distance from the at least one enterprise resource to the user interface device;displaying a vertical distance scale on the display screen;corresponding the at least one enterprise resources to a location on the distance scale to generate a location representation; andpresenting the location representation via the first interface device. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the enterprise resource is an entity employee. 3. The method of claim 1 wherein the enterprise resource is a conference room. 4. The method of claim 1 wherein the processor is further programmed to identify locations for each of a plurality of enterprise resources, to identify location representations indicating a distance of each of at least a subset of the enterprise resources relative to the interface device, and to display the location representations on the vertical distance scale. 5.
