Presenting information regarding conditions of an environment with a visual representation of the environment
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- installing in an environment at least one sensor unit to monitor at least one condition of the environment;
communicating to a computing device, via at least one network, digital data comprising a visual representation of the environment, wherein the visual representation of the environment comprises at least one graphic corresponding to at least one structural and/or topographical element of the environment and communicating the digital data comprising the visual representation of the environment comprises communicating to the computing device digital data for the at least one graphic; and
communicating to the computing device information identifying a location in the environment of a first sensor unit of the at least one sensor unit.

Abstract
Configuring a user interface by which a user can view information regarding one or more conditions of an environment collected by an environmental monitoring system. An environmental monitoring system comprises one or more sensor units disposed in an environment and one or more servers. The servers may receive from an operator of the environment a visual representation of the environment and may identify a position in the visual representation corresponding to the location and configure a user interface to present information regarding the environment based at least in part on the positions. The user interface can be configured to display the visual representation and display information related to the first sensor unit so as to indicate a relationship between the information and the position corresponding to the location of the first sensor unit. Information identifying a location of one or more sensor units may be determined through an automated process.
