  • 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: 20190179911
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media are provided for using linked documents. A system may receive, from a computing device, a request for a document. Content of the document may be defined based on state information and stateless information. A system may determine a local replica of the document in a local database. The local replica of the document may be linked to a primary replica of the document. The local replica of the document may include a snapshot of the primary replica of the document. The primary replica of the document may be stored in a remote database which may be accessible through a remote server. The system may subscribe to the primary replica of the document through the remote server, and may provide access to the document to the computing device based at least in part on the subscription to the primary replica of the document.

  • Publication number: 20180239768
    Abstract: Various systems and methods are provided that display schematics and data associated with the various physical components in the schematics in an interactive user interface. For example, a computing device links data stored in one or more databases with schematics displayed in one or more interactive user interfaces. The computing device parses a digital image that depicts a schematic and identifies text visible in the digital image. Based on the identified text, the computing device recognizes representations of one or more physical components in the schematic and links the representations to data regarding the physical component in one or more databases, such as specification data, historical sensor data of the component, etc. The computing device modifies the digital image such that it becomes interactive and visible in a user interface in a manner that allows the user to select a physical component and view data associated with the selection.

  • 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: 20170351686
    Abstract: An interactive user interface for displaying projects comprising a collection of links specifying data to be displayed from a plurality of different applications and/or data sources. When loading a project for display, links are automatically parsed to identify the application and/or data source they are associated with. Retrieved data associated with the links is displayed in a format based upon that of their native application. The data may be displayed in an interactive format, allowing the user to change or manipulate the data in a manner that would be possible in the data's native application. A project may be expressed as a “project link,” comprising a text string, wherein the links of the assets associated with the project are included or embedded within the text string, and which may be shared between different users, and may function as a snapshot of the project.
