Wireless Portable Sensor Monitoring System
First Claim
1. A sensor monitoring system comprising:
- a computer readable storage device for storing computer executable programmed modules;
a processor communicatively coupled with the computer readable storage device for executing programmed modules stored therein;
a control module stored in the computer readable storage device, the control module configured to manage and control the wireless sensor monitoring system;
a sensor module stored in the computer readable storage device, the sensor module configured to automatically detect a plurality of sensor devices deployed at a remote location and manage data access to and from the plurality of sensor devices; and
a display and mapping module stored in the computer readable storage device, the display and mapping module configured to display a map interface including an image of the remote location being monitored by the plurality of sensors and a location of each of the plurality of sensors deployed at the remote location.

Abstract
Systems and methods for operating a wireless sensor monitoring system are provided. The sensor monitoring system includes one or more portable sensor devices deployed at a remote location. The system also includes a controller server configured to automatically detect the one or more portable sensor devices via a network connection, to receive sensor data from the sensor devices, process the sensor data using user-defined rules, and to send commands to the sensor devices instructing the devices to perform various actions. The controller server is further configured to provide a user interface for accessing sensor data from the portable sensor devices, generating a map interface of the remote location that displays the positions of the sensor devices, for receiving rule definitions to actions to be taken at specific times or if specified events occur, and for generating alerts and reports from sensor data.
