Introduction to Modelling

What is Modelling?

Models are the graphical representation of the analysis that will be carried out by the CenterView Analysis Engine.

Analysis Models define how data is collected, transformed, exported and viewed. An Analysis model is typically used to perform core processing that is unaffected by external actions e.g daily analysis of operational data from external systems.

Workflow Models define how data is subject to different processes or transformations in response to external actions. A Workflow model is typically used to model a business process e.g. how alarms should be handled.

Analysis Models are created by opening a new modelling screen and adding processing steps. These steps define data collection from databases or files, analysis of that data and then alarm generation based on failure (or success) conditions.

The best way to get started with modelling is to watch the QuickStart guide to Modelling in CenterView.
