Senseware's Dashboard allows you to get even more out of your data through the use of analytics, aggregation, and correlation. The platform is flexible enough to provide value for a variety of applications, from M&V to quantifying HVAC performance or analyzing air quality. Some examples for specific applications are shown below.

A good indicator of whether or not HVAC equipment is performing well involves correlating its energy usage with the outdoor air temperature. A situation where equipment uses more energy than it has historically, without significantly higher outdoor temperatures, could indicate problems or inefficiencies.

Oftentimes HVAC efficiency is quantified in part by using the delta T between various quantities. In this case, the delta T refers to the change in temperature between supply and return air. 

A good way to determine potential problems with an HVAC unit is to monitor compress usage along with the delta T mentioned above. If a compressor is running, but there is little to no indication of cool supply air, or a minimal delta T, it could indicate compressor problems.

Ventilation can vary greatly within a commercial building. When conference rooms undergo high occupancy, their air quality can degrade compared to nearby offices or even outside conditions. Comparing these air quality differences can allow a building operator to adjust ventilation as necessary.

A good way to determine if ventilation adequately suits a given area is by monitoring the amount of foot traffic the space experiences. In this example a motion/occupancy sensor is correlated to CO2 presence.

Weather phenomena outside a building owner's control, such as wildfires, can negatively affect the air quality inside a building.
