It includes analytics software and sophisticated reporting capabilities plus direct access to almost any data source.
The small footprint, SOA and Java architecture delivers an embedding and integration ready platform that delivers analytic business intelligence within business processes.
Hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) is a highly toxic gas commonly found in oil and gas facilities, wastewater treatment plants, and chemical manufacturing. Continuous monitoring of H₂S levels is critical to ensuring worker safety and regulatory compliance. A leading manufacturer of hydrogen sulfide monitors has adopted InetSoft's open-source BI application, StyleBI, to deliver web-based reports and dashboards that provide real-time insights into gas exposure levels, equipment performance, and compliance trends.
By integrating StyleBI, the manufacturer enables its clients to visualize sensor data, generate compliance reports, and analyze trends through interactive dashboards. This article explores how the manufacturer uses StyleBI's charts, analytics, and data modeling capabilities to enhance safety monitoring and operational efficiency.
Why StyleBI for Hydrogen Sulfide Monitoring?
StyleBI is a lightweight, embeddable BI tool that allows organizations to create dynamic, web-based dashboards without heavy infrastructure requirements. Key benefits for the H₂S monitor manufacturer include:
Next, we'll explore the key dashboards and analytics used in their implementation.
