Abstract
Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and devices for reducing user effort for sensor provisioning. In one embodiment, a system includes one or more processors and one or more memories including program instructions. The program instructions when executed are configured for receiving and storing initial sensor provisioning instructions from a graphical user interface (GUI) and provisioning a first plurality of sensors using the initial sensor provisioning instructions.
Claims16
A system comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- one or more memories including program instructions, when executed are configured for:
- providing to a graphical user interface (GUI) an architectural template representing a facility to be monitored by a first plurality of sensors and a second plurality of sensors, wherein the GUI is configured for:
- receiving georeferenced map data from a map service associated with a location of the facility;
- simultaneously displaying the architectural template over the georeferenced map data;
- allowing a user to position and adjust dimensions of the architectural template as referenced with the georeferenced map data;
- allowing the user to create a first zone geometry overlaid onto the georeferenced map data and the architectural template;
- allowing the user to define a first zone name to be associated with the first zone geometry;
- allowing the user to position each of a first plurality of sensor representations associated with the first plurality of sensors within the first zone geometry;
- allowing the user to create a second zone geometry overlaid onto the georeferenced map data and the architectural template;
- allowing the user to define a second zone name to be associated with the second zone geometry;
- allowing the user to create a copy of the first plurality of sensor representations from within the first zone geometry and paste the copy within the second zone geometry to create a second plurality of sensor representations associated with the second plurality of sensors;
- generating initial sensor provisioning instructions comprising:
- programmatically determining a name, a serial number, a map location, and a template location for each sensor of the first plurality of sensors based on the first zone name and a location relative to the georeferenced map data of an associated sensor representation within the first plurality of sensor representations;
- and
- programmatically determining a name, a serial number, a map location, and a template location for each sensor of the second plurality of sensors based on the second zone name and a location relative to the georeferenced map data of an associated sensor representation within the second plurality of sensor representations;
- storing the initial sensor provisioning instructions;
- and
- provisioning the first plurality of sensors and the second plurality of sensors using the initial sensor provisioning instructions.
