Abstract

A remote monitoring system is disclosed. In one such embodiment, a system may comprise a first measuring unit disposed within a structure, a first processor disposed in operative communication with the first measuring unit, and a second processor disposed within the structure. The first measuring unit may comprise a first sensor adapted to detect a first parameter. The first measuring unit may be adapted to output a first signal associated with the first parameter. The first processor may be adapted to receive the first signal and to control the first measuring unit. The second processor may be disposed in operative communication with the first measuring unit and the first processor.

Claims (23)

1. A method comprising:

associating a first value of a first parameter measured by a first sensor at a first time with a first geometric shape comprising a first size;

associating a second value of the first parameter measured by the first sensor at a second time with a second geometric shape comprising a second size; and

displaying the first and second geometric shapes superposed on a graphic representation of a structure, wherein a position of the displayed first and second geometric shapes corresponds substantially to a position of the first sensor disposed in the structure, and wherein the first geometric shape comprises a circle and the second geometric shape comprises a ring.

2. A method comprising:

associating a first value of a first parameter measured by a first sensor at a first time with a first geometric shape comprising a first size;

associating a second value of the first parameter measured by the first sensor at a second time with a second geometric shape comprising a second size; and

displaying the first and second geometric shapes superposed on a graphic representation of a structure, wherein a position of the displayed first and second geometric shapes corresponds substantially to a position of the first sensor disposed in the structure, and wherein the displayed second geometric shape circumscribes the displayed first geometric shape.

3. A method comprising:

associating a first value of a first parameter measured by a first sensor at a first time with a first geometric shape comprising a first size;

associating a second value of the first parameter measured by the first sensor at a second time with a second geometric shape comprising a second size; and

displaying the first and second geometric shapes superposed on a graphic representation of a structure, wherein a position of the displayed first and second geometric shapes corresponds substantially to a position of the first sensor disposed in the structure, and wherein the displayed second geometric shape circumscribes the displayed first geometric shape and the displayed second geometric shape and the displayed first geometric shape are concentric with one another.

4. A computer-readable medium on which is encoded program code, the program code comprising:

program code for associating a first value of a first parameter measured by a first sensor at a first time with a first geometric shape comprising a first size;

program code for associating a second value of the first parameter measured by the first sensor at a second time with a second geometric shape comprising a second size;

program code for displaying the first and second geometric shapes superposed on a graphic representation of a structure, a position of the displayed first and second geometric shapes corresponding substantially to a position of the first sensor disposed in the structure; and

program code for displaying the second geometric shape circumscribing the first geometric shape.

5. A computer-readable medium on which is encoded program code, the program code comprising:

program code for associating a first value of a first parameter measured by a first sensor at a first time with a first geometric shape comprising a first size;

program code for associating a second value of the first parameter measured by the first sensor at a second time with a second geometric shape comprising a second size;

program code for displaying the first and second geometric shapes superposed on a graphic representation of a structure, a position of the displayed first and second geometric shapes corresponding substantially to a position of the first sensor disposed in the structure;

program code for displaying the second geometric shape circumscribing the first geometric shape; and

program code for displaying the first and second geometric shapes concentric with one another.
