| Atlas solves the two main problems of data acquisition:
- Timely processing of data
- Timely distribution of the processed results.
Operation
Data files from the project site are forwarded to Atlas on the internet. Atlas
processes the readings to check for alarms and stores the data in a database. Users can then view processed data and graphs with their web browsers.
In this way, Atlas provides immediate processing and immediate distribution of results. Data and graphs
are available anywhere there is an internet connection: at work,
at home, at the client's office, or half-way around the world.
Data Presentation
Atlas presents data in the following ways:
- Plan Views show the location of sensors at
the site, their current readings, and their alarm status. Plan
views are updated in near real time and can show alarms, as required.
- Plots can be viewed on screen, printed, and included in reports. Plot types include trend plots, profile plots,
and correlation plots.
- Tabular Data can be displayed instantly with plots. Data can also be downloaded for further analysis.
- Reports are generated automatically and emailed
to users on a daily, weekly, or monthly schedule.
- Alarms appear on screen. Alarm notifications
are sent out by email and can be forwarded to cell phones.
