  • Patent number: 10360702
    Abstract: Various systems and methods are provided that display various graphs in an interactive user interface in substantially real-time in response to input from a user in order to determine information related to measured data points and provide the determined information to the user in the interactive user interface. For example, a computing device may be configured to retrieve data from one or more databases and generate one or more interactive user interfaces. The one or more interactive user interfaces may display the retrieved data in one or more graphs, such as time-series or scatterplots. The user interface may be interactive in that a user may manipulate one graph, which causes an identical or nearly identical manipulation of another displayed graph in real-time. The manipulations may occur even if the displayed graphs include data across different time ranges.

  • Publication number: 20180239747
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a mobile data analysis system generates mobile reports. In this context, a mobile report represents information collected by a mobile device user and provided as input to a report form displayed by an associated mobile device. The collected information may, for example, include information relating to an activity or event, information relating to a particular person, entity, or location, or any combination thereof. A mobile report may be based on a report template. A report template defines one or more data fields and other property information to be included in a mobile report. A mobile report may be sent to a server to generate one or more data objects, and one or more data object links between the data objects from a first mobile report, the data objects from a second mobile report, and exiting data objects that are maintained at the server.

  • Publication number: 20180011626
    Abstract: Systems and methods for aggregating and storing different types of data, and generating interactive user interfaces for analyzing the stored data. In some embodiments, entity data is received for a plurality of entities from one or more data sources, and used to determine attribute values for the entities for one or more given time periods. The plurality of entities may be categorized into one or more entity groups, and aggregate attribute values may be generated based upon the entity groups. A first interactive user interface is generated displaying the one or more entity groups in association with the aggregated attribute values associated with the entity group. In response to a received indication of a user selection of an entity group, a second interactive user interface is generated displaying the one or more entities associated with the selected entity group, each entity displayed in association with the attribute values associated with the entity.
