Abstract:
Described herein are systems and methods for presenting building information. In overview, the technologies described herein provide relationships between Building Information Modeling (BIM) data (which includes building schematics defined in terms of standardized three dimensional models) and Building Management System (BMS) data (which includes data indicative of the operation of building components such as HVAC components and the like). Some embodiments use relationships between these forms of data thereby to assist technicians in identifying the physical location of particular pieces of equipment, for example in the context of performing inspections and/or maintenance. In some cases this includes the provision of 2D and/or 3D maps to portable devices, these maps including the location of equipment defined both in BIM and BMS data. In some cases, augmented reality technology is applied thereby to provide richer access to positional information.

Abstract:
An approach for monetizing performance of building system equipment such as HVAC equipment. Expected and actual performance curves may be obtained for the HVAC equipment. Differences between the curves may indicate energy consumption. The energy consumption may be monetized. The monetizing may be of degradation that occurs when the equipment deteriorates, incurs a fault or has a loss of performance as accrued over time. Monetizing may incorporate maintenance and capital risk exposure. The monetizing may be a conversion of analyses of the equipment to money in real time. Performance monitoring of the equipment may incorporate predictive trending which may lead to fault prognosis and preventative maintenance. Automation of the conversion may result in immediate information and feedback to customers. The information may be stored for historical purposes and future analyses.
