Systems and methods for responding to incidents in a building are provided. One method includes performing operations including retrieving data relating to one or more on-premises building devices of the building, determining the incident relating to the one or more on-premises building devices, and determining a plurality of potential responses to the incident. The operations further include analyzing the plurality of potential responses and determining relative risks of the potential responses to the incident and transmitting, to a first on-premises building device of the on-premises building devices, data indicating the incident and at least one of the plurality of potential responses based on the relative risks of the potential responses.

Incident response system

A system for managing energy usage of equipment in a building network includes one or more processing circuits configured to select a plurality of points, equipment, spaces, or objects of the building network; perform a bulk modification of the plurality of the points, equipment, spaces, or objects of the building network by providing a bulk modification command via the building network; analyze time series data associated with the points, equipment, spaces, or objects of the building network using values provided via the bulk modification; and manage energy usage of the equipment based on a result of analyzing the time series data associated with the points, equipment, spaces, or objects of the building network.

Building management system with advanced search actions and bulk commands

A building system including one or more memory devices configured to store instructions that, when executed on one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to collect building device data of a building device, the building device data comprising a plurality of data samples of a data point and generate a time correlated data stream for the data point, the time correlated data stream comprising values of the plurality of data samples of the data point. The instructions cause the one or more processors to generate a time correlated reliability data stream for the data point, the time correlated reliability data stream comprising a plurality of reliability values indicating reliability of the values of the plurality of data samples of the data point.

Building system with a time correlated reliability data stream

A building system of a building, the building system comprising one or more memory devices storing instructions thereon, that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to receive building metadata, the building metadata describing a plurality of components of the building, generate, based on the building metadata, a plurality of entities, each of the plurality of entities representing one of the plurality of components, and determine, based on the building metadata, relationships between the plurality of entities. The instructions cause the one or more processors to generate a plurality of metadata strings in a universal building schema comprising a plurality of characters representing a first entity of the plurality of entities, one or more second entities of the plurality of entities related to the first entity, and one or more relationships between the first entity and the one or more second entities.

Building system with naming schema encoding entity type and entity relationships

A building management system (BMS) includes a storage device having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations. The operations include receiving an indication of an event relating to building equipment operable to serve spaces of a building, the indication identifying at least one of a space or a type of equipment associated with the event, determining, based on the indication, that the one or more criteria are satisfied for a first filter of a plurality of filters, each filter of the plurality of filters associated with a subset of users and specifying one or more criteria for satisfying the filter, the one or more criteria comprising at least one of a space criterion or an equipment criterion, and providing a notification of the event to the subset of users associated with the first filter in response to a determination that the one or more criteria are satisfied for the first filter.

Building management system with space-based and equipment-based notification system

Systems and methods for creating and using equipment definitions are provided. An archetypal device used to identify one or more data points associated with the archetypal device. A point definition is generated for each identified data point associated with the archetypal device. Each point definition includes an abstraction of a text string extracted from the corresponding data point that is applicable to multiple different devices of the same type of building equipment. The generated point definitions are used to create an equipment definition for a type of building equipment. The equipment definition can be used to identify data points associated with other devices of the same type of building equipment and to automatically create equipment objects representing such devices.

A building management system (BMS) interface system. The BMS interface system includes a user interface and a BMS controller in communication with the user interface. The BMS controller includes a processor. The processor is configured to display a graphical scheduling interface on the user interface and receive a scheduling input from the user interface.
