The present disclosure relates generally to displaying a healthy building dashboard. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to displaying a healthy building dashboard enabled by a hierarchal model of building control assets.
Building control systems can include a large number of control assets that are divided between parts of a building or other facility, between different buildings or facilities within a region, and/or between different geographic regions in which a particular enterprise has ongoing operations. The building control assets may be used to gather healthy building data across the building control system. However, presenting such healthy building data to a user in an intuitive way can be a challenge.
The present disclosure relates to presenting healthy building data in a healthy building dashboard format that provides insight into overall compliance with healthy building guidelines as well as insight as to sources of non-compliance using a spatial hierarchal model. In one example, a method provides for monitoring compliance with healthy building guidelines within a spatial hierarchal model that provides spatial context to a plurality of building control assets that are disposed within a plurality of hierarchal levels of the spatial hierarchal model. The healthy building guidelines are based at least in part on one or more healthy building criteria. The illustrative method includes allowing a user to select a particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model. Non-compliance events that are non-compliant with one or more of the healthy building criteria of the healthy building guidelines detected by building control assets disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model are identified. The non-compliance events for each of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by building control assets disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model are aggregated. A healthy building dashboard is generated that includes a representation of the aggregated non-compliance events for each of at least some of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by building control assets disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model. The healthy building dashboard is displayed on a display. A user is allowed to select a different hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model. Non-compliance events are identified that are non-compliant with one or more of the healthy building criteria of the healthy building guidelines detected by building control assets disposed at and below the newly selected different particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model. The non-compliance events for each of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by building control assets disposed at and below the newly selected different particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model are aggregated. An updated healthy building dashboard that includes a representation of the aggregated non-compliance events for each of at least some of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by building control assets disposed at and below the newly selected different particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model is generated and is displayed on a display.
Another example is a method of monitoring compliance with healthy building criteria within a spatial hierarchical model that provides spatial context to a plurality of building control assets disposed within a plurality of hierarchical levels of the spatial hierarchical model. The method includes identifying non-compliance events that are non-compliant with one or more of the healthy building criteria of healthy building guidelines detected by building control assets disposed at and below a particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model. The non-compliance events for each of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by building control assets disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model over a period of time are aggregated and a healthy building dashboard that includes a representation of the aggregated non-compliance events for each of at least some of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by building control assets disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model is generated and is displayed on a display.
Another example is a method of monitoring compliance with healthy building criteria within a spatial hierarchical model that provides spatial context to a plurality of building control assets disposed within a plurality of hierarchical levels of the spatial hierarchical model, at least some of the plurality of building control assets including video cameras. The method includes allowing a user to select a particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model and to obtain video streams over a period of time from video cameras disposed at or below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model. Video analytics are performed on the video streams over the period of time in order to identify non-compliance events that are non-compliant with one or more of the healthy building criteria of healthy building guidelines. The non-compliance events for each of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by the video cameras disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model are aggregated. A healthy building dashboard that includes a representation of the aggregated non-compliance events for each of at least some of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by the video cameras disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model is generated and is displayed.

The system 10 may include any number of groups of assets 12. Each group of assets 12 may include any of a variety of different assets. Examples of assets include but are not limited to devices such as cameras and access control devices, door alarms, window alarms and the like. Assets may include a variety of different types of sensors, such as but not limited to temperature sensors, humidity sensors, occupancy sensors, lighting sensors and the like. In some cases, the assets included within each of the groups of assets 12 may include Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system components such as heating sources and cooling sources. In some cases, at least some of the assets within one or more of the groups of assets 12 may include environmental sensors such as but not limited to air temperature (both indoor and outdoor), air humidity (both indoor and outdoor), CO (carbon monoxide) sensors, CO2 (carbon dioxide) sensors, NOx (nitric acid) sensors, TVOC (total volatile organic compounds) sensors and the like. In some cases, the assets included within each of the groups of assets 12 may include industrial and/or manufacturing process control assets. These are just examples.
The illustrative system 10 may include a number of monitoring systems 14, individually labeled as 14a, 14b and through 14n. In some cases, a particular monitoring system 14 may be operably coupled with at least some of the assets within a particular group of assets 12, and may receive operational and/or other information from at least some of the assets within the particular group of assets 12. A particular monitoring system 14 may provide operational instructions to at least some of the assets within the particular group of assets 12. While
The monitoring systems 14 are shown as being operationally coupled with a cloud-based server 16. The cloud-based server 16 may represent one or more distinct computing sources such as one or more servers. In some cases, each of the monitoring systems 14 may receive operational instructions from the cloud-based server 16, and the monitoring systems 14 may pass those operational instructions or translations thereof down to the appropriate assets within the groups of assets 12. The monitoring systems 14 may pass operational data from assets within the groups of assets 12 up to the cloud-based server 16. While each of the monitoring systems 14 are shown as being distinct from both the cloud-based server 16 and their corresponding group of assets 12, it is contemplated that at least some of the functions of at least some of the monitoring systems 14 may be manifested within the cloud-based server 16. In some cases, at least some of the functions of at least some of the monitoring systems 14 may be manifested within one or more of the assets within the groups of assets 12. In some cases, the monitoring systems 14 may be implemented at least in part by an edge controller, such as an edge gateway or the like.
The cloud-based server 16 may be configured to monitor performance of the assets within the groups of assets 12. This may include any of a variety of different Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT) systems. This can include monitoring performance of security-related assets, including detecting alarms. Some alarms may be legitimate, while others may be false alarms that can be canceled once investigated. Alternatively, or in addition, this can include monitoring performance of HVAC, lighting, fire suppression, and/or industrial and/or manufacturing control systems. In some cases, the cloud-based server 16 may be configured to monitor or track various healthy building-related criterial that can be used to ascertain how well a facility or a portion of a facility, facilities within a geographic region and/or facilities within each of a number of geographic regions under the umbrella of a company are performing with respect to meeting healthy building guidelines.
In some cases, the cloud-based server 16 may be configured to organize the assets within the groups of assets 12 into a spatial hierarchical model that provides spatial context to the assets. This spatial hierarchical model can be helpful in being able to monitor and track assets at various hierarchical levels in the spatial hierarchical model, as will be discussed further herein.
The processor 26 is configured to display one or more screens on the display 24 that allow a user to add and name each of one or more first level spaces at a first level of a spatial hierarchical model. The processor 26 is configured to display one or more screens on the display 24 that allow the user to select a selected one of the first level spaces of the spatial hierarchical model and add and name each of one or more child level spaces that are spatially part of the selected first level space at a second level of the spatial hierarchical model. The processor 26 is configured to display a graphical representation of one or more of the first level spaces and one or more corresponding child level spaces as well as to display a listing of at least some of the plurality of building control assets operatively coupled to the input/output. The processor 26 may be configured to accept user input to assign selected building control assets 20 from the listing of at least some of the plurality of building control assets 20 to a selected child level space and to accept user input to monitor and/or control at least some of the plurality of building control assets 20 using the spatial hierarchical model. In some cases, accepting user input to assign selected building control assets 20 from the listing of at least some of the plurality of building control assets 20 to the selected child level space comprises dragging and dropping selected building control assets from the listing of at least some of the plurality of building control assets 20 to the selected child level space. An particular example of such a system is shown and described with respect to
Reference has been made to hierarchical levels within a spatial hierarchical model.
The spatial hierarchical model 30, as shown, also includes grandchild hierarchical level objects 38 and 40. The grandchild hierarchical level object 38 and the grandchild hierarchical level object 40 are both at the same organizational level, and are both children of child hierarchical level object 36. In the previous example, if the child hierarchical level object 36 represents a geographic region, the grandchild hierarchical level object 38 and 40 may each represent particular buildings within the geographic region represented by the child hierarchical level object 36. Continuing with this example, it is contemplated that the spatial hierarchical model 30 may include a number of great grandchild hierarchical level objects below, for example, the grandchild hierarchical level object 38 that each represent a particular zone or space within the particular building represented by the grandchild hierarchical level object 38. This is just an example. It is contemplated that the spatial hierarchical model 30 may have any suitable number of hierarchical levels, depending on the application.
A number of assets have been placed within the spatial hierarchical model 30. In particular, an asset 34a and an asset 34b have been placed within the child hierarchical level object 34. Similarly, an asset 36a and an asset 36b have been placed within the child hierarchical level object 36. An asset 38a and an asset 38b have been placed within the grandchild hierarchical level object 38. An asset 40a and an asset 40b have been placed within the grandchild hierarchical level object 40. While only two assets are shown in each hierarchical level, it will be appreciated that each hierarchical level object 32, 34, 36, 38, 40 may include any number of assets, and depending on what a particular hierarchical level object 32, 34, 36, 38, 40 represents, may include a substantially greater number of assets.
An asset may be considered as belong to a hierarchical level object that it is assigned to, as well as to higher level hierarchical level objects (e.g. parent and grandparent hierarchical level object). For example, the asset 38a may be considered as belonging to the grandchild hierarchical level object 38, and also the child hierarchical level object 36 and the parent hierarchical level object 32. It will be appreciated that within the context of monitoring healthy building performance across any of a number of buildings, other facilities, geographic regions and even companies, the spatial hierarchical model 30 facilitates being able to compile and track aggregated data while also permitting easily drilling down to a lower hierarchical level objects in the model, and the particular assets at (and below) that lower hierarchical level objects in order to better ascertain performance with respect to healthy building guidelines.
The method 50 includes accepting user input via one or more screens to add and name each of one or more first level spaces at a first level of the spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 52. In some cases, accepting user input via one or more screens to add and name each of one or more first level spaces at the first level of the spatial hierarchical model may include accepting a selection of an add new space icon, displaying a pop-up menu in response to the selection of the add new space icon, and accepting a name for at least one of the one or more first level spaces. The word “space” here may be considered to be a generic term, and may refer to any of the hierarchical level objects referenced in
User input is accepted via one or more screens to select a selected one of the first level spaces of the spatial hierarchical model and add and name each of one or more child level spaces that are spatially part of the selected first level space at a second level of the spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 54. In some cases, accepting user input via one or more screens to select the selected one of the first level spaces of the spatial hierarchical model and add and name each of one or more child level spaces that are spatially part of the selected first level space at the second level of the spatial hierarchical model may include accepting a selection of the selected one of the first level spaces, accepting a selection of an add new space icon, displaying a pop-up menu in response to the selection of the add new space icon, and accepting a name for at least one of the one or more child level spaces. A graphical representation of one or more of the first level spaces and one or more corresponding child level spaces is displayed, as indicated at block 56.
In the example shown, a listing of at least some of the plurality of building control assets is displayed, as indicated at block 58. User input is accepted to assign selected building control assets from the listing of at least some of the plurality of building control assets to a selected child level space, as indicated at block 60. In some instances, accepting user input to assign selected building control asserts to the selected child level may include dragging and dropping selected building control asserts from the listing of at least some of the plurality of building control asserts to the selected child level space. In some cases, the displayed listing of at least some of the plurality of building control assets may include building control assets that are already connected and visible on a building control network that is to be monitored and/or controlled using the spatial hierarchical model. In some cases, the displayed listing of at least some of the plurality of building control assets may include building control assets that are not yet connected and visible on the building control network that is to be monitored and/or controlled using the spatial hierarchical model. Displaying the list of at least some of the plurality of building control asserts may include filtering the plurality of building control asserts using filter criteria and displaying only the building control assets that meet the filter criteria. In some cases, the method 50 may include deploying the spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 62. The method 50 may include monitoring and/or controlling at least some of the plurality of building control assets using the deployed spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 64.
User input is accepted via one or more screens to select a selected one of the first level spaces of the spatial hierarchical model and add and name each of one or more child level spaces that are spatially part of the selected first level space at a second level of the spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 74. In some cases, accepting user input via one or more screens to select the selected one of the first level spaces of the spatial hierarchical model and add and name each of one or more child level spaces that are spatially part of the selected first level space at the second level of the spatial hierarchical model may include accepting a selection of the selected one of the first level spaces, accepting a selection of an add new space icon, displaying a pop-up menu in response to the selection of the add new space icon, and accepting a name for at least one of the one or more child level spaces. A graphical representation of one or more of the first level spaces and one or more corresponding child level spaces is displayed, as indicated at block 76.
In the example shown, a listing of at least some of the plurality of building control assets is displayed, as indicated at block 78. An indication of which of the plurality of building control assets have not yet been assigned may be displayed, as indicated at block 80. In some cases, the unassigned building control assets may be displayed in a different color, for example, or may be bolded relative to how the assigned building control assets are displayed. In some cases, only unassigned building control assets are displayed, while those that have already been assigned are not displayed in the listing.
User input is accepted to assign selected building control assets from the listing of at least some of the plurality of building control assets to a selected child level space, as indicated at block 82. In some instances, accepting user input to assign selected building control asserts to the selected child level may include dragging and dropping selected building control asserts from the listing of at least some of the plurality of building control asserts to the selected child level space. The displayed listing of at least some of the plurality of building control assets may include building control assets that are already connected and visible on a building control network that is to be monitored and/or controlled using the spatial hierarchical model. Displaying the list of at least some of the plurality of building control asserts may include filtering the plurality of building control asserts using filter criteria and displaying only the building control assets that meet the filter criteria.
In some instances, the method 70 may further include assigning a unique identifier to each of the one or more first level spaces, the one or more child level spaces and the one or more building control assets that are assigned to a child level space, as indicated at block 84. This may be done automatically without user input. In some cases, the method 70 may include accepting user input via one or more screens to assign searchable tags to at least some of the first level spaces, child level spaces and/or assigned building control assets, as indicated at block 86. The searchable tags may allow a user to categorize and/or group at least some of the first level spaces, child level spaces and/or assigned building control assets for later reference.
In the example shown, one or more screens are displayed that enable a user to dispose one or more assets within one or more folders of the hierarchical folder structure, as indicated at block 96. In some cases, the one or more screens that enable the user to dispose one or more assets within one or more folders of the hierarchical folder structure allow the user to drag and drop selected assets from a listing of available assets to a selected folder of the hierarchical folder structure. The hierarchical folder structure is analyzed to determine relationships between the one or more geographic region-level folders, the one or more location-specific folders and the one or more assets in order to assign a unique identifier to each folder and to each asset in the hierarchical folder structure, as indicated at block 98. One or more screens are displayed that display the hierarchical folder structure, as indicated at block 100.
In some cases, the method 90 may further include generating a spatial hierarchical model based on the hierarchical folder structure, as indicated at block 102. The spatial hierarchical model may be deployed, as indicated at block 104. At least some of the assets may be monitored and/or controlled using the deployed spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 106.
The hierarchical folder structure is analyzed to determine relationships between the one or more geographic region-level folders, the one or more location-specific folders and the one or more assets in order to assign a unique identifier to each folder and to each asset in the hierarchical folder structure, as indicated at block 118. This may be performed automatically without user input. In the example shown, one or more screens are displayed that display the hierarchical folder structure, as indicated at block 120. In some instances, the method 110 may further include displaying one or more screens that enable the user to create one or more building-specific folders within one or more of the one or more location-specific folders, as indicated at block 122. The illustrative method 110 may further include displaying one or more screens that enable a user to dispose one or more assets within one or more of the building-specific folders, as indicated at block 124.
The non-compliance events are aggregated for each of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by building control assets disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 136. In some instances, aggregating the non-compliance events for each of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by building control assets disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model may include separately aggregating the non-compliance events for each of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by building control assets disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model over a period of time. The period of time may, for example, be user-selectable using a healthy building dashboard. A healthy building dashboard is generated that includes a representation of the aggregated non-compliance events for each of at least some of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by building control assets disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 138. The healthy building dashboard is displayed on a display, as indicated at block 140. A user is allowed to select a different hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 142.
Non-compliance events are identified that are non-compliant with one or more of the healthy building criteria of the healthy building guidelines detected by building control assets disposed at and below the newly selected different particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 144. Control passes to an anchor 146, which is repeated at the top of
In some instances, the method 130 may further include generating a first overall compliance score for the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model based at least in part on the aggregated non-compliance events for each of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by building control assets disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model, and displaying the first overall compliance score on the healthy building dashboard, as indicated at block 154. In some instances, the method 130 may further include generating a second overall compliance score for the newly selected different particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model based at least in part on the aggregated non-compliance events for each of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by building control assets disposed at and below the newly selected different particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model, and displaying the second overall compliance score on the updated healthy building dashboard, as indicated at block 156.
In some cases, one or more of the building control assets may include video cameras, and at least some of the non-compliance events that are non-compliant with one or more of the healthy building criteria of the healthy building guidelines may be detected by performing video analytics on video streams provided by one or more video cameras. The non-compliance events that are non-compliant with one or more of the healthy building criteria of the healthy building guidelines may include one or more of non-compliance occupancy levels, non-compliant social distancing behavior and/or non-compliance mask behavior. The one or more of the building control assets may include a temperature sensor, and at least one of the non-compliance events that are non-compliant with one or more of the healthy building criteria of the healthy building guidelines include a non-compliant space temperature. One or more of the building control assets may include a humidity sensor, and at least one of the non-compliance events that are non-compliant with one or more of the healthy building criteria of the healthy building guidelines may include a non-compliant space humidity. One or more of the building control assets may include a thermal sensor for sensing a body temperature of an occupant, and at least one of the non-compliance events that are non-compliant with one or more of the healthy building criteria of the healthy building guidelines may include a non-compliant body temperature.
In the example shown, the non-compliance events are aggregated for each of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by building control assets disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 166. In some instances, aggregating the non-compliance events for each of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by building control assets disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model may include separately aggregating the non-compliance events for each of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by building control assets disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model over a period of time. The period of time may, for example, be user-selectable using a healthy building dashboard. A healthy building dashboard is generated that includes a representation of the aggregated non-compliance events for each of at least some of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by building control assets disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 168. The healthy building dashboard is displayed on a display, as indicated at block 170. A user is allowed to select a different hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 172.
Non-compliance events are identified that are non-compliant with one or more of the healthy building criteria of the healthy building guidelines detected by building control assets disposed at and below the newly selected different particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 174. Control passes to an anchor 176, which is repeated at the top of
In some instances, the method 160 may further include determining a non-compliance trend over a trend time period of the aggregated non-compliance events for each of at least some of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by building control assets disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 184. In some instances, the trend time period may be user-selectable. The non-compliance trend may be displayed on the healthy building dashboard, as indicated at block 186. In some instances, the method 160 may further include displaying a plurality of recent non-compliance events on the healthy building dashboard, as indicated at block 188.
The non-compliance events are aggregated for each of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by building control assets disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 196. In some instances, aggregating the non-compliance events for each of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by building control assets disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model may include separately aggregating the non-compliance events for each of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by building control assets disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model over a period of time. The period of time may, for example, be user-selectable using a healthy building dashboard. A healthy building dashboard is generated that includes a representation of the aggregated non-compliance events for each of at least some of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by building control assets disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 198. The healthy building dashboard is displayed on a display, as indicated at block 200. A user is allowed to select a different hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 202.
Non-compliance events are identified that are non-compliant with one or more of the healthy building criteria of the healthy building guidelines detected by building control assets disposed at and below the newly selected different particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 204. Control passes to an anchor 206, which is repeated at the top of
In some instances, the method 190 further includes aggregating non-compliance events for each at least some of the one or more of the healthy building criteria for each of two or more hierarchical levels of the spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 214. In some instances, the method 190 may further include concurrently displaying a representation of the aggregated non-compliance events for each of at least some of the one or more of the healthy building criteria for each of the two or more hierarchical levels of the spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 216.
In some cases, the method 190 may further include forming the spatial hierarchical model. The spatial hierarchical model may be formed, as shown for example in
In some instances, accepting user input to assign selected building control assets from the listing of at least some of the plurality of building control assets to the selected child level space may include dragging and dropping selected building control assets from the listing of at least some of the plurality of building control assets to the selected child level space. In some cases, accepting user input via one or more screens to add and name each of one or more first level spaces at the first level of the spatial hierarchical model may include accepting a selection of an add new space icon, displaying a pop-up menu in response to the selection of the add new space icon, and accepting a name for at least one of the one or more first level spaces.
The non-compliance events are aggregated for each of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by the video cameras disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 238. A healthy building dashboard is generated that includes a representation of the aggregated non-compliance events for each of at least some of the one or more of the healthy building criteria detected by the video cameras disposed at and below the particular hierarchical level of the spatial hierarchical model, as indicated at block 240. The healthy building dashboard is displayed, as indicated at block 242.
When the user selects the CREATE 2 FOLDERS button 278, a screen 290 will be displayed, as seen in
It can be seen that the pop-up box 322 identifies the hierarchical level (hierarchical level object 292, labeled “Ground Floor”) in which the new folders will be placed. The pop-up box 322 includes a space 324 in which the user can type the name of a new folder. The user has already entered a new folder named “Reception”, a new folder named “Server Room”, a new folder named “Office Supplies”, a new folder named “Healthcare” and a new folder named “Elevator Area”. The pop-up box 322 will allow a user to keep entering names of new folders to be created under the hierarchical level object 292 until the user either selects a CANCEL button 326 or selects a CREATE 5 FOLDERS button 328. It will be appreciated that the counter within the name of the button 328 will vary, depending on how many new folders are being created. It will be appreciated that a similar pop-up box may be displayed in response to the user having selected the ADD NEW FOLDER button 256 or the corresponding option within the pop-up menu 312, but would only be adding a single new folder. Selecting the CREATE 5 FOLDERS button 328 will cause a screen 340 to be displayed, as seen in
It can be seen that the spatial hierarchical model displayed within the workspace 252 has grown. The spatial hierarchical model still includes the hierarchical level object 254 labeled “Oracle”, the hierarchical level object 292 labeled “Ground Floor” and the hierarchical level object 294 labeled “First Floor”, but also includes additional hierarchical levels objects that are child levels relative to the hierarchical level object 292 and are grandchild levels relative to the hierarchical level object 254. These new hierarchical levels include a hierarchical level object 342 labeled “Reception”, a hierarchical level object 344 labeled “Server Room”, a hierarchical level object 346 labeled “Office Supplies”, a hierarchical level object 348 labeled “Healthcare” and a hierarchical level object 350 labeled “Elevator Area”. It will be appreciated that additional child hierarchical level objects may be created relative to the hierarchical level object 294 labeled “First Floor”, and that additional hierarchical level object may be added relative to the hierarchical level object 254 labeled “Oracle” such as “Second Floor”, “Third Floor and so on, or perhaps Parking Garage.
Once a spatial hierarchical model has been created and put into use, a user may have a desire to search within the spatial hierarchical model. Searches and/or filtering can be performed using the names or portions of names of the hierarchical level objects, for example. As an example, perhaps a user wants to see the assets assigned to every “Reception” area in the company, spread over multiple buildings in multiple geographic regions. The user could search and/or filter search results for “reception” to obtain this information. Searches and/or filtering may be performed using the names or portions of names of the assets that are assigned to the various hierarchical level objects. For example, a user could decide they want to see the location of every door access device in the building. They could search for “door access” or “card reader” or something similar, for example.
Another way that the user can search and/or filter search results is to use what can be referred to as tags. With reference to the
The screen 420 shows a number of columns, including a Type column 422, a Name column 424, a Parent column 426, a Device Type column 428, an IP column 430, and a Tag1 column 432. It will be appreciated that the screen 420 includes the same information regarding the spatial hierarchy model as does
In the spatial hierarchy model shown on the screen 460, there are two regions, named “US EAST” and “US WEST”, as indicated by these names having a single “/” character prefixing the name. There is a “ATLANTA” site within the US EAST region, and a “HONEYWELL MIDTOWN” building within the “ATLANTA” site. There is also a “NEW JERSEY” site within the “US EAST” region, with a “HONEYWELL NJ OFFICE” building within the “NEW JERSEY” site. Each of the sites has two “/” characters prefixing the site name, and each of the buildings has three “/” characters prefixing the building name. Similarly, the “US WEST” region includes a “SAN FRANCISCO” site with a “HONEYWELL SFD OFFICE” building within the “SAN FRANCISCO” site. The “US WEST” region also includes a “SAN DIEGO” site, but no buildings within the “SAN DIEGO” site have been entered yet.
Because the hierarchal level indicator 484 reads “All Spaces”, the aggregated data that is displayed within the dashboard 482 represents, for each particular healthy building criteria, a sum total of incidents relating to that particular healthy building criteria not only for the selected hierarchal level, but also for all child and grandchild hierarchal levels that are under the selected hierarchal level. For the sake of this example, assume that the spatial hierarchy model represented by the dashboard 482 is the same as that shown in
The dashboard 482 includes a “COMPLIANCE OVERVIEW” section 490 that shows, for the selected hierarchal level (as indicated by the hierarchy level indicator 484), an aggregated total for each of the displayed healthy building criteria from the selected hierarchal level and all sub-levels. In this example, the COMPLIANCE OVERVIEW section 490 includes a CAPACITY indicator 490a, an INCIDENTS indicator 490b, a NO MASKS indicator 490c and an ELEVATED BODY TEMPERATURE indicator 490d. As indicated, in the last 15 days, in the time period “17 Jan. 2021-31 Jan. 2021”, there have been no incidents with average capacity exceeding capacity limits, there are a total of 250 open incidents, there were 30 incidents of people not wearing masks and there were 10 incidents of people being detected having elevated body temperatures.
The dashboard 482 may also display additional detail. For example, the dashboard 482 provides a graphical representation 492 that indicates that during the selected time period, and for the selected hierarchal level, average occupancy has been 80.7 percent of capacity. In this, capacity may indicate a summation of the actual capacity limits for each of the included facilities, such as but not limited to the capacity limits that fire departments set for particular facilities. Capacity may alternatively indicate a reduced capacity figure, such as a 25 percent capacity or a 50 percent capacity as directed by infectious disease protocols. For example, many local governments have directed such reduced capacity figures during the COVID19 pandemic. The dashboard 482 may also include a graphical representation 494, over time, of actual occupancy values. While there have been several transient periods in which the actual occupancy exceeded a capacity limit, it can be seen that overall, the average occupancy has not. In some cases, the graphical representation 494 may use a different color, for example, to indicate when the actual occupancy has exceeded capacity.
In some cases, selecting the hierarchy level indicator 484 may cause a screen 500 to be displayed, as seen in
As seen, all of the boxes are checked, meaning that the aggregated data displayed within the dashboard 482 includes all data from the US EAST region and the US WEST region. The US EAST region includes the ATLANTA site, which itself includes the “Honeywell Midtown” building, and the NEW JERSEY site, which itself includes the “Honeywell NJ Office” building. The US WEST region includes the SAN FRANCISCO site, which itself includes the “Honeywell SF Office” building, and the SAN DIEGO site which does not yet have any buildings indicated.
If for example, the US EAST box was checked (instead of checking the “Select All” box), the ATLANTA site and the “Honeywell Midtown” buildings would also be checked as a matter of course. The aggregated data displayed on the dashboard 482 would only include data aggregated from each of the ATLANTA site and the “Honeywell Midtown” building. It will be appreciated that the ATLANTA site likely includes a plurality of buildings, but in this example only one building has been entered thus far. To continue the example, an occupancy sensor within the “Honeywell Midtown” building may provide a signal indicating that a particular room to which that occupancy sensor has been installed and assigned. That signal would indicate a potential problem for that particular room in the “Honeywell Midtown” building. That signal would also indicate a potential problem for the particular floor including that particular room, for example. The building may be further divided into areas or portions, and that signal would also indicate a problem within any area or portion that includes the particular room to which the particular sensor is assigned. That signal would also indicate a problem for the ATLANTA site and the US EAST region.
Occupancy data that might be displayed on the dashboard 482 if the US EAST box was checked would include, for the “Honeywell Midtown” building, an aggregation of signals from every occupancy sensor within the “Honeywell Midtown” building. Continuing the example, occupancy data that might be displayed on the dashboard 482 for the ATLANTA site would include the occupancy data from the “Honeywell Midtown” building as well as for any other buildings (not shown) that are within the ATLANTA site. Occupancy data that might be displayed on the dashboard 482 for the US EAST region would include the aggregated occupancy data for the ATLANTA site, the NEW JERSEY site and any other sites (not yet entered) that are assigned within the US EAST region.
Having thus described several illustrative embodiments of the present disclosure, those of skill in the art will readily appreciate that yet other embodiments may be made and used within the scope of the claims hereto attached. It will be understood, however, that this disclosure is, in many respects, only illustrative. Changes may be made in details, particularly in matters of shape, size, arrangement of parts, and exclusion and order of steps, without exceeding the scope of the disclosure. The disclosure's scope is, of course, defined in the language in which the appended claims are expressed.
