Abstract

A building system can include one or more processors. The one or more processors can store the building data in a digital twin including a contextual representation of the building. The one or more processors can generate, based on the building data stored in the digital twin and the contextual representation of the digital twin, an overall building score of the building based on one or more space parameters indicating health levels of spaces of the building, one or more planet health parameters relating to an effect of the building on environmental pollution, and one or more people parameters relating to at least one of physical or mental health of occupants of the building. The one or more processors can control the one or more building systems of the building using at least one of the one or more space parameters, the one or more planet health parameters.

an update to an operating setting of the one or more building systems controlling an environmental condition of the building;

a work order to perform maintenance on the one or more building systems; and

an update to add a new system or service to the one or more building systems.

4 . The building system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more space parameters of the building indicating health levels of the spaces of the building include at least one of:

process health parameters indicating health of processes performed within the spaces of the building;

system health parameters indicating the health of the one or more building systems; and

safety and security health parameters indicating health of safety and security systems of the one or more building systems.

5 . The building system of claim 1 , wherein the instructions cause the one or more processors to:

determine occupancy levels of a plurality of spaces of the building at a plurality of times; and

generate a user interface including at least one of:

one or more elements indicating the occupancy levels of the plurality of spaces; or

one or more elements indicating occupancy level trends based on the occupancy levels of the plurality of spaces of the building at the plurality of times.

6 . The building system of claim 5 , wherein the instructions cause the one or more processors to:

determine, based on the building data, at least one of indoor air quality of indoor air of the building or infectious disease risk indicating a risk level of occupants of the building contracting an infectious disease; and

cause the user interface to include at least one of an indication of the indoor air quality or the infectious disease risk.

7 . The building system of claim 1 , wherein the instructions cause the one or more processors to:

determine, based on the building data, one or more space health scores for the one or more space parameters of the building;

determine, based on the building data, one or more planet health scores for the one or more planet health parameters of the building; and

determine, based on the building data, one or more people health scores for the one or more people parameters of the building.

8 . The building system of claim 7 , wherein the instructions cause the one or more processors to:

generate, based on the building data, the overall building score of the building based on the one or more space health scores, the one or more planet health scores, and the one or more people health scores; and

cause the one or more processors to generate a user interface including an overall building score element comprising an indication of the overall building score.

9 . The building system of claim 8 , wherein the user interface includes:

one or more space health score elements comprising one or more indications of the one or more space health scores, indications of alerts associated with the one or more space health scores, and indications of one or more recommendations to perform actions to improve the one or more space health scores.

10 . The building system of claim 8 , wherein the user interface includes:

one or more planet health score elements comprising one or more indications of the one or more planet health scores, indications of alerts associated with the one or more planet health scores, and indications of one or more recommendations to perform actions to improve the one or more planet health scores.

11 . The building system of claim 8 , wherein the user interface includes:

one or more people health score elements comprising one or more indications of the one or more people health scores, indications of alerts associated with the one or more people health scores, and indications of one or more recommendations to perform actions to improve the one or more people health scores.

12 . A method, comprising:

receiving, by one or more processing circuits, building data from one or more building systems of a building;

storing, by the one or more processing circuits, the building data in a digital twin, the digital twin comprising a contextual representation of the building;

generating, by the one or more processing circuits, based on the building data stored in the digital twin and the contextual representation of the digital twin, an overall building score of the building based on:

one or more space parameters indicating health levels of spaces of the building;

one or more planet health parameters relating to an effect of the building on environmental pollution; and

one or more people parameters relating to at least one of physical or mental health of occupants of the building; and

controlling, by the one or more processing circuits, the one or more building systems using at least one of the one or more space parameters, the one or more planet health parameters, or the one or more people parameters to cause the overall building score to improve.

13 . The method of claim 12 , comprising:

generating, by the one or more processing circuits, an update, wherein the update includes at least one of:

an update to an operating setting of the one or more building systems controlling an environmental condition of the building;
