1. A system comprising:
- a plurality of sensors installed at a premises to capture data from an environment in or around the premises;
a memory configured to store the captured data; and
a processor configured to;
determine information about the premises based on the stored data,create one or more zone definitions that define one or more zones based on the information, each zone definition including a designation of one or more sensors from among the plurality of sensors, andcontrol an operation of at least one other system at the premises based on the one or more defined zones,wherein the one or more zones are defined by one or more zoning rules, a first zoning rule being to search for data sets that indicate two or more sensors have captured events simultaneously or within a predetermined time window.

Abstract
A method includes capturing data with a plurality of network connected sensors installed in or around a premises, storing at least a sampling of the data in an electronic storage device, analyzing the stored data with a processor to automatically identify one or more types of trends or patterns, creating, based on the analysis, a zone definition for a first zone that corresponds to an area of the premises from which data was captured by one or more sensors selected from among the plurality of sensors, and configuring at least one system operating in or around the premises automatically based on the first zone definition.
