The SCMS platform won two prestigious smart city awards for its pivotal role in the Ville de Laval smart lighting and dynamic signage panels project
Introducing the Power of Visual Data Aggregation
Dimonoff | SCMS keeps getting smarter. The latest in a long string of major improvements in V20 of Dimonoff’s IoT management platform is the power to visually display aggregated data. Book your one-on-one Demo with Dimonoff experts to see the power of Dimonoff | SCMS.
An IoT platform without aggregation is planned for smaller deployment than a city. For bigger projects, most of browser’s technologies cannot manage nor display more than 70 000 IoT devices. However, street lighting projects come quickly over this number. This shows the real players!
Here are some reasons why this new feature matters to our users:
As the market of IoT enabled sensors and other connected devices expands and takes hold in cities all over the world, clients are in need of a solution that does not hold back their ability to scale.
In order to scale both the number as well as the type of devices, they can add on their IoT management platform. No matter the size of your city, data aggregation allows more fluidity and a better user experience on the platform, by eliminating overlapping icons on the map.
Ultimately, aggregations allow analysis at a glance and a better understanding of the city’s connected infrastructure status.
High-value information
Visual aggregated data must evolve depending on the zooming level. The farthest the user is from the targeted data, the largest number of device’s information the aggregation includes. The closest the user gets, the more granular the information is displayed.
Uplifted filtering capabilities
Dimonoff | SCMS’s new feature opens up possibilities for personalized dynamic filtering of key informations. Users will be able to quickly answer recurring questions such as:
- How many faulty sensors need to be checked?
- What types of alarms have been activated?
Easy updates
In the popular SaaS model, you are always using the latest version of the software, because you are accessing it on the cloud. But cloud hosting creates other challenges, so not every city considers it right for them. Whether you go for a public cloud, private cloud, or an on-premise solution, it should be easy to update your software, and the vendor should be committed to continuous improvement in that area.
