IoT Contextually-aware Digital Twin with Enhanced Discovery
IoT devices within a commercial real-estate or residential building environment may be connected through networks, such as a Building Automation and Control network (BACnet). Systems and methods according to this disclosure provide automatic discovery of IoT devices and relationships in commercial real-estate and residential buildings and integration of the BACnet devices into the digital twin of the building. In some implementations, an IoT gateway is configured to translate the communication received from the BACnet to an IoT cloud platform and configured to normalize the data across the different security platforms into a consistent format which enables integration and interoperability of the different building system platforms that may otherwise be operating in isolation from each other. Systems and methods according to the present disclosure provide edge based analytics and control of IoT BACnet devices based on defining conditions and rules, and provide integration of multiple building systems in the context of commercial real-estate and residential buildings.
