US 12,254,753 B2 · Determination and notification of a location of a building safety system event

Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices for determination and notification of a location of a building safety system event are described herein. One embodiment includes a method for notifying a user of a fire system event, comprising detecting an event in a building through an event detection device and transmitting information about at least one of the event or the event detection device to a remote server and to a first computing device. The first computing device may include a memory wherein floorplans of each floor of the building are stored. The method may further comprise determining, based on the information and through the first computing device, a floor of the building on which the first event was detected; transmitting a particular floorplan of that floor to the remote server; determining a specific location within the floor at which the first event was detected; generating a visual floor representation, including an indication of the specific location, based on the particular floorplan and the specific location; and transmitting the visual floor representation to a software application comprised of executable instructions stored in the memory of a second computing device to present the visual floor representation to a user.
