Embodiments relate generally to systems and methods for determining the location of a gas detector device, wherein the location may be within a predefined location zone, and automatically configuring the gas detector device based on the location zone. Each location zone in a facility may be associated with a configuration for the gas detector device. The location of the gas detector device may be monitored by a central station, and when it is determined that a gas detector device has moved from one location zone to another, the configuration of the gas detector device may be updated accordingly. Additionally, other parameters may be monitored by the central station and/or the gas detector device to determine the appropriate configuration of the gas detector device.

Method to auto-configure gas detectors based on real-time location

Methods, systems, and computer-readable and executable instructions are described herein. One method includes identifying a number of structural rules of an area utilizing a map of the area, determining a placement for each node of a number of nodes of a node network on the map of the area utilizing a node placement model, identifying a placement of a node among the number of nodes that deviates from a structural rule among the number of the structural rules, and providing an indication of the node on the map of the area.

Node placement planning

Computer-generated speech devices for site survey and maintenance, and methods of using the same are described herein. One computer-generated speech device includes a location engine to determine a location of the computer-generated speech device at a site, a solution engine to identify an action to perform associated with one of a plurality of nodes at the site using the location of the computer-generated speech device and input data associated with the plurality of nodes, and a speech engine to broadcast the identified action as computer-generated speech using a speaker component of the computer-generated speech device for a user to perform during a survey and/or maintenance of the site.

Computer-generated speech device for site survey and maintenance

A system and method of monitoring zones for alarm conditions and automatically alerting individuals in a plurality of zones about the safety of a particular zone is provided. The method includes providing a site map of a predefined area, configuring a plurality of zones in the predefined area, receiving ambient condition data and location data from a plurality of wireless devices located in the predefined area, computing an alarm level for each zone in the plurality of zones based on the received ambient condition data and location data, and transmitting alert notifications to the plurality of wireless devices. The alert notification sent to each wireless device is based on the computed alarm level of the zone in which that wireless device is located relative to the computed alarm level of the other zones in the plurality of zones.

Alert system with zoning using wireless portable detectors and a central station

A system and method of associating, assigning, and authenticating users with and to a personal protective equipment device is provided. A method can include receiving biometric data, processing the received biometric data, and based on the processing, associating a user with a personal protective equipment device.

System and method of associating, assigning, and authenticating users with personal protective equipment using biometrics

A method and apparatus where the apparatus performs the steps of receiving a location of a person; determining via a database a hazard level of the location confirming via a database that the person is qualified to be present at the location based upon a training level of the person for the determined hazard level of the location and wirelessly notifying the person to leave the location upon determining that the person is not qualified for the hazard level of the location based upon the training level of the person.

System and method to monitor events and personnel locations

Systems and methods for top view site map generation can include receiving a number of non-top view images of an area and generating a top view site map for the area utilizing the number of non-top view images.

Top view site map generation systems and methods

A method and apparatus for detecting hazardous gases. The method includes the steps of providing a central station and a plurality of environmental detectors within a protected area, each of the plurality of environmental detectors detecting environmental events within the protected area and reporting detected events to the central station, one of the plurality of environmental detectors detecting an environmental event within the protected area and reporting that event to the central station, the central station determining a location of the detected event and of each of the plurality of environmental detectors within the protected area, the central station dynamically computing a route from the determined location of each of the plurality of environmental detectors to the closest and safest exit based upon the determined location of the detected environmental event and the central station generating and sending a respective map showing the computed route to the closest and safest exit for that environmental detector to each of the plurality of environmental detectors.

System and apparatus providing localized evacuation guidance

A system and method of better alarm management is provided. The method includes importing a floor map of a monitored area onto a workstation, configuring the floor map, and generating an optimal guidance route map on the floor map. The optimal guidance route map provides a user with at least one route from the workstation to a designated device in the monitored area.

Systems and methods for better alarm management

A method and apparatus are provided for finding fires. The method includes providing a plurality of reference locations within a facility where each of the reference locations is associated with a readily identifiable feature of the facility, detecting a fire within the facility, receiving a fire location request from a monitoring location within the facility and dynamically generating a routing map from the monitoring location to a location of the fire and from the fire to a fire exit of the facility using at least some of the plurality of reference locations based upon the request.
