COLLABORATIVE ENVIRONMENT FOR SHARING VISUALIZATIONS OF INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION DATA
First Claim
1. A visualization system that generates a collaborative visualization environment in an industrial automation environment, comprising:
- a view component that maps a plurality of displays to respective users;
a visualization component that dynamically generates a visualization from a set of display objects to present to a user that is a function of the received information and inferred or determined entity context; and
a collaboration component that receives instructions or requests to initiate a collaboration with another user, machine, or displays the collaboration component provides for joining multiple users, machines, or displays to create a common view or workspace via the view component and the visualization component.

Abstract
A visualization system that generates a collaborative visualization environment in an industrial automation environment is provided. A view component maps a plurality of displays to respective users. A visualization component dynamically generates a visualization from a set of display objects to present to a user that is a function of the received information and inferred or determined entity context. A collaboration component receives instructions or requests to initiate a collaboration with another user, machine, or displays the collaboration component provides for joining multiple users, machines, or displays to create a common view or workspace via the view component and the visualization component.
