Abstract

The present disclosure relates to an apparatus for managing local monitoring data. The apparatus for managing local monitoring data includes an identification unit configured to identify monitoring data as one of structured monitoring data and unstructured monitoring data using flag information of the monitoring data, a storage unit configured to store structured monitoring data in a relational database or unstructured monitoring data in an unstructured database on the basis of an identification result of the monitoring data, and a conversion unit configured to search structured monitoring data corresponding to a data conversion condition among the structured monitoring data to convert the searched structured monitoring data into unstructured monitoring data.

Claims

1. An apparatus for managing local monitoring data, which collects and manages monitoring data from a local monitoring apparatus monitoring electric power generation information of a photovoltaic power generation system, comprising:

an identification unit configured to identify the monitoring data as one of structured monitoring data and unstructured monitoring data using flag information of the monitoring data;

a storage unit configured to store the monitoring data on the basis of an identification result of the monitoring data; and

a conversion unit configured to convert the structured monitoring data into unstructured monitoring data in response to a data conversion condition.

2. The apparatus of claim 1, further comprising:

a collection unit configured to collect the monitoring data from a local monitoring apparatus monitoring electric power generation information of the photovoltaic power generation system.

3. The apparatus of claim 2, wherein the collection unit collects the monitoring data by combining apparatus identification information of the local monitoring apparatus with the monitoring data.

4. The apparatus of claim 3, wherein the conversion unit searches structured monitoring data corresponding to a preset data format among the structured monitoring data.

5. The apparatus of claim 4, wherein the conversion unit converts structured monitoring data, which is combined with apparatus identification information the same as the apparatus identification information among the searched structured monitoring data, into unstructured monitoring data.

6. The apparatus of claim 1, further comprising:

an analysis unit configured to analyze one of the structured monitoring data and the unstructured monitoring data to produce analysis data with respect to the electric power generation information.
