- Claim: 1. A building management system (BMS) comprising: one or more memory devices having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising: obtaining for each of a plurality of respective BMS objects respective semantic information for each of the plurality of the respective BMS objects, the respective semantic information being stored on each of the plurality of the respective BMS objects; identifying a plurality of predetermined classifications that pertain to the plurality of the respective BMS objects using the respective semantic information; classifying the plurality of the respective BMS objects using the plurality of predetermined classifications; updating a semantic site model associated with a building site by including the respective semantic information associated with the plurality of the respective BMS objects; and adjusting a plurality of parameters associated with the respective BMS objects using the semantic site model.
- Claim: 2. The BMS of claim 1 , the operations further comprising: receiving a user input indicating one or more user-defined BMS object identifiers associated with a first BMS object of the plurality of respective BMS objects; and wherein classifying the plurality of the respective BMS objects comprises: associating a subset of the plurality of the respective BMS objects with the first BMS object using the respective semantic information and the one or more user-defined BMS object identifiers.
- Claim: 3. The BMS of claim 1 , the operations further comprising: identifying a plurality of control operations that pertain to a subset of the plurality of the respective BMS objects; and wherein adjusting the plurality of parameters associated with the respective BMS objects comprises executing a subset of the plurality of control operations.
- Claim: 4. The BMS of claim 1 , wherein the semantic information includes at least one of a plurality of predetermined BMS object definitions, a plurality of predetermined equipment definitions or a plurality of predetermined point definitions.
- Claim: 5. The BMS of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of the respective BMS objects includes at least one of equipment entities, point entities or space entities.
- Claim: 6. The BMS of claim 1 , the operations further comprising: providing a plurality of recommendations; receiving a user input indicating a selection of a subset of the plurality of recommendations; and controlling a subset of the plurality of respective BMS objects using the subset of the plurality of recommendations.
- Claim: 7. The BMS of claim 6 , wherein the recommendations include at least one of a plurality of control operations, a plurality of parameter setpoints or a plurality of control operation schedules.
- Claim: 8. The BMS of claim 1 , the operations further comprising: monitoring the plurality of the respective BMS objects using the semantic site model; and detecting a setpoint condition by using a plurality of predetermined setpoint criteria, wherein the plurality of predetermined setpoint criteria include one or more BMS object parameters and one or more BMS object parameter setpoints.
- Claim: 9. The BMS of claim 1 , the operations further comprising receiving a user input indicating one or more adjustments to the semantic site model, wherein the user input is received responsive to displaying information that is associated with the semantic site model.
- Claim: 10. A method comprising: obtaining semantic information, wherein the semantic information pertains to a BMS object and is stored on the BMS object; identifying a predetermined classification that pertains to the BMS object using the semantic information; classifying the BMS object using a plurality of predetermined classifications; updating a semantic site model associated with a building site by including the semantic information of the BMS object; and adjusting a plurality of parameters associated with the BMS object using the semantic site model.
- Claim: 11. The method of claim 10 , further comprising: receiving a user input indicating one or more user-defined BMS object identifiers associated with the BMS object; and wherein classifying the BMS object comprises: associating a subset of a plurality of BMS objects with the BMS object using the semantic information and at least one of the user-defined BMS object identifiers.
- Claim: 12. The method of claim 11 , further comprising: identifying a plurality of control operations that pertain to the subset of the plurality of BMS objects; and adjusting the plurality of parameters associated with the BMS object by executing a subset of the plurality of control operations.
- Claim: 13. The method of claim 10 , wherein the semantic information includes at least one of a plurality of predetermined BMS object definitions, a plurality of predetermined equipment definitions or a plurality of predetermined point definitions.
- Claim: 14. The method of claim 10 , wherein the BMS object includes at least one of equipment entities, point entities or space entities.
- Claim: 15. The method of claim 10 , further comprising: providing a plurality of recommendations; receiving a user input indicating a selection of a subset of the plurality of recommendations; and controlling a subset of a plurality of BMS objects using the subset of the plurality of recommendations.
- Claim: 16. The method of claim 10 , further comprising: monitoring the BMS object using the semantic site model; and detecting a setpoint condition by using a plurality of predetermined setpoint criteria, wherein the plurality of predetermined setpoint criteria include one or more BMS object parameters and one or more BMS object parameter setpoints.
- Claim: 17. The method of claim 10 , further comprising receiving a user input indicating one or more adjustments to the semantic site model, wherein the user input is received responsive to displaying information that is associated with the semantic site model.
- Claim: 18. A building management system (BMS) comprising: one or more memory devices having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising: obtaining for each of a plurality of respective BMS objects respective semantic information for each of the plurality of the respective BMS objects, the respective semantic information being stored on the each of the respective BMS objects; identifying a plurality of predetermined classifications that pertain to the plurality of the respective BMS objects using the respective semantic information; classifying the plurality of the respective BMS objects using the plurality of predetermined classifications; updating a semantic site model associated with a building site by including the respective semantic information associated with the plurality of the respective BMS objects; and adjusting a plurality of parameters associated with the respective BMS objects using the semantic site model.
- Claim: 19. The BMS of claim 18 , the operations further comprising: receiving a user input indicating one or more user-defined BMS object identifiers associated with a first BMS object of the plurality of respective BMS objects; and wherein classifying the plurality of the respective BMS objects comprises: associating a subset of the plurality of the respective BMS objects with the first BMS object using the respective semantic information and the one or more user-defined BMS object identifiers.
- Claim: 20. The BMS of claim 18 , the operations further comprising: identifying a plurality of control operations that pertain to a subset of the plurality of the respective BMS objects; and wherein adjusting the plurality of parameters associated with the respective BMS objects comprises executing a subset of the plurality of control operations.
