RE: [obix] FW: Standardized Data Schema Report Published

Toby...this is a great Report and with 
your permission we will post it in the CABA Research Library. Also, if you have 
time, please post this same info for the 1,000+ members of the CABA Group in 
LinkedIn. You can view other annnouncements at: http://www.linkedin.com/groups?gid=2121884

 

Keep up the good work with oBIX and the industry.

This document should be part of 
the thinking about next steps in oBIX as well.

Subject: Standardized Data 
Schema Report Published

 

I wanted to inform 
you that the report for the REA-WBS Standardized Data Schema project has been 
published and is available at the link below.

 

Review of Current 
Data Exchange Practices: Providing Descriptive Data to Assist with Building 
Operations Decisions

http://www.nrel.gov/docs/fy11osti/50073.pdf  
(PDF 804 KB)

 

Authors: William 
Livingood and Justin Stein (NREL); Toby Considine (TC9, Inc.); Chuck Sloup 
(Sensus Machine Intelligence)

 

Retailers who 
participate in the U.S. Department of Energy Commercial Building Energy 
Alliances (CBEA) identified the need to enhance communication standards. The 
means are available to collect massive numbers of buildings operational data, 
but CBEA members have difficulty transforming the data into usable information 
and energy-saving actions. Implementing algorithms for automated fault detection 
and diagnostics and linking building operational data to computerized 
maintenance management systems are important steps in the right direction, but 
have limited scalability for large building portfolios because the algorithms 
must be configured for each building.
