1. A computer implemented method for sharing content, the method comprising:

  • displaying a touch/gesture driven user interface that is rendered on a display screen coupled to a first terminal, wherein the touch/gesture driven user interface includes;

    a map layer including image data representative of a facility, wherein the touch/gesture driven user interface is navigated by way of pan and zoom operations defined with respect to the map layer;

    one or more objects superimposed on the map layer, wherein each object is associated with a building resource defined in a building management system, each building resource being associated with name data;

    wherein the touch/gesture driven user interface is controllable by multiple modes, including at least one gesture-driven mode, and at least one voice-driven mode;

    wherein, for at least one voice-driven mode, a voice-command processing module is configured to have access to name data for the building resources, wherein the name data defines individual unique names for each of the building resources according to a location-specific hierarchy derived naming convention, wherein attributes of a given voice command are processed thereby to identify a particular one of the building resources; and

    wherein the voice-command processing module is context dependent, thereby to favor name data for resources shown on-screen over name data for resources not shown on screen at least when the given voice command does not inherently provide full location-specific hierarchy context.
