A site in Jade Smart Cloud represents a physical location that contains areas to be monitored. A common scope for a site is a single building, but it can just as well consist of multiple buildings or a single space within a building. The choice is up to the administrator that defines the site.
The scope of sites is also significant for user management, as access to users that have operator or viewer role is granted on site level. Administrators can always see all sites that belong to the same Jade subscription.
Under the site level, there are measurement groups and locations:
- Measurement groups are used to connect measurement locations that logically belong together, typically for a single space or floor. They help to navigate the site when viewing measurements, and provide more context for the measurement locations.
- Measurement locations represent the exact physical points where measurements are performed. Connecting a measurement device to a measurement location is referred to as linking. Similarly, alerts are defined by linking an alert rule to a location.
