Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for a server node to allow a first client node to follow a second client node in a collaboration session. The method includes sending at least a portion of a spatial event map to a first node wherein the spatial event map locates events in a virtual workspace. The method includes sending data to allow the first node to display, in a screen space of a display associated with the first node, digital assets identified by events in the spatial event map that have locations within a viewport of the first node. The method includes sending data to allow the first node to follow a second node by, in response to identification of a viewport change event in the spatial event map for the second node.
