Desigo Optic is built on Haystack 4, which offers a standardized tagging model that helps simplify the data, leading to more powerful results.

Desigo Optic, powered by FIN Framework, provides a highly-efficient building automation solution with enhanced integration across numerous third-party systems. With Project Haystack semantic data models and tagging features, Desigo Optic offers better workflows for integration, creation of graphics, trend analysis and overall building management. Built for small to medium-sized buildings, but scalable to grow with the building and property portfolio’s needs.

On behalf of Project Haystack, Richard McElhinney will be participating in the Data Tagging Workshop during the Big Data and Analytics Forum 2021, online July 22, 2021. To attend, visit: www.airah.org.au/BigData. To learn more about the Data Tagging Workshop visit: https://lnkd.in/g5K7-FM.

Founded in 2011, Project Haystack is an open source initiative to streamline working with IoT data, helping the industry turn operational data into actionable information. Used across millions of square feet of real estate and thousands of facilities, Haystack standardizes semantic data models and web services with the goal of making it easier to unlock value from the vast quantity of information being generated by the smart devices that permeate our homes, buildings, factories, and cities. 

This week, Realcomm Live welcomes founding members of Project Haystack, John Petze and Marc Petock to discuss where the industry is today with smart building data standards for applications such as automation, control, energy, HVAC, lighting, and other environmental systems, as well as the importance of data interoperability.

Project Haystack recently held its biennial conference, Haystack Connect. The conference is known for the quality of its technical program, which is driven by the Project Haystack community. This year’s event featured 30 presentations divided into three tracks.

The program was divided into three tracks. Track 1, Haystack in Practice, explored real world applications of Haystack tagging. Track 2 was the technical track. Track 3, “Pitchfest”, showcased new products and services utilizing Haystack technology.

The Project Haystack organizations is pleased to announce the publication of the Spring 2021 Connections Magazine! This ninth issue commemorates the 10th Anniversary of Project Haystack, founded in 2011, and the commitment of the community to perfect data tagging and further solidify the value brought by the Project Haystack open-source methodology of semantic tagging for the built environment and beyond.

Today, we are also proud to announce four new Associate Member companies have joined the organization just in the past month: Allander Analytics, Automated Logic, Buildings IOT and Clockworks Analytics.

The member companies and supporters of Project Haystack continue expanding the standards for semantic modeling methodology and building on the tagging libraries for more and more applications. This community-driven, open-source process is engaging more and more companies that work on different facets of specifying and implementation.
