Description
Get More Insight From Your Analytics Data
Niagara Analytics is an advanced analytics module integrated into the Niagara Framework that enables users to unlock deeper value from building and system data. As devices and systems communicate, they continuously generate data, and Niagara Analytics transforms this information into actionable intelligence through simplified implementation of advanced analytical algorithms.
The platform delivers real-time business intelligence that supports faster and more informed decision-making, helping improve operational efficiency while reducing time, effort, waste, and cost. Analytics can be performed on live data from embedded controllers such as JACE® devices or on historical data already stored within the system.
The system supports advanced use cases such as fault detection and diagnostics (FDD), automated control strategies, energy optimization, and advanced alarming. These capabilities allow issues to be identified proactively and, in many cases, resolved automatically without manual intervention, improving both local and enterprise-level operations.
With an intuitive engineering environment based on Niagara wire sheet programming, a pre-defined algorithm library, and HTML5-based visualization dashboards, Niagara Analytics enables powerful yet accessible analytics without requiring specialized programming skills.
