Aggregate monitor data in real-time by worker

A method of monitoring worker safety, comprising:

• receiving, by a monitoring station, definitions of associations of electronic monitors to a plurality of workers, where the electronic monitors are carried by the plurality of workers in a work environment, each of the plurality of workers carries two or more different electronic monitors, each configured to transmit different information about the work environment, and the monitoring station is a computer system;
• storing the definitions of associations of the two or more different electronic monitors to each of the plurality of workers by the monitoring station in a data store;
• receiving, by the monitoring station, information from the electronic monitors via a wireless communication link;
• based on accessing the data store, analyzing information from two or more different electronic monitors associated with a first worker of the plurality of workers by the monitoring station to determine a safety status of the first worker;
• interpreting, by the monitoring station, information from a first electronic monitor of the two or more different electronic monitors associated with the first worker based upon information from a second electronic monitor of two or more different electronic monitors associated with a second worker of the plurality of workers,
• wherein the first electronic monitor is one of and the second electronic monitor is another of a gas detector, a dust detector, a radiation detector, a temperature sensor, a humidity sensor, a self-contained breathing apparatuses (SCBAs), a bio-harness, a biomonitor, a gyroscope, and an accelerometer;
• based on the interpretation of the information from the first electronic monitor and the second electronic monitor,
• presenting an alarm indication on a display by the monitoring station;
• receiving a selection of the alarm indication by a user interface of the monitoring station;
• and
• responsive to receipt of selection of the alarm indication, presenting details about the one of the workers in a drill-down frame on the display by the monitoring station.

• based on the interpretation of information from the first electronic monitor,
• synthesizing a model that articulates a comprehensive view of the safety of the first worker by the monitoring station;
• and
• presenting the comprehensive view of the safety of the first worker on a display of the monitoring station.
