As soon as the platform receives your live data, Qatium will analyze and process it to find relevant events like:
- Tank levels (unusually low)
- Junction pressures (unusually low)
- Pipe flows (unusually high)
You can set thresholds (minimum and maximum values) for those variables in your assets through a .CSV file.
Preparing your files for upload
To set thresholds, your .CSV file should include the following columns:
Column label | Asset | Property | Min | Max | Unit |
Type of data | <string> | <string> | <number> | <number> | <string> |
- Asset: the asset ID.
- Property: could be flow, pressure, or level, for example.
- Min: the threshold minimum value.
- Max: the threshold maximum value.
- Unit: of the property.
For example:
asset,property,min,max,unit
J_00028,pressure,10,60,kPa
J_00029,pressure,10,60,kPa
Make sure the units for the threshold values match the units of the variable we're setting the warnings to:
- Pipe flow = flow unit
- Tank level = level unit
- Junction pressure = pressure unit
Upload process
As at any other time, whenever your .CSV is ready, drag & drop it into the network.
Visualizing warnings
Once uploaded, we will compare the threshold values in the .CSV file with the live data. If the data received is below, or above the thresholds, we’ll let you know both in the workspace and inside the network.
- Workspace: The affected networks will have a warning badge. If you click on it, it will take you to the time of the warning in the network.
- Network: There will be warning icons on the date picker and on specific dates in the calendar. The time affected in the timeline will be in orange and have a warning icon.
You’ll see the cause of the warning when hovering over or clicking the affected asset.
By default, if the data received exceed the threshold values for less than 1 hour we won't display any warning.
