How to organize Locations and Spaces

Conserv Cloud has several options for creating a hierarchy to manage your sensors.

Conserv's customers often have complex needs around how their spaces are organized, and how sensors are placed within those spaces. To support these needs, Conserv uses the concepts of "Spaces" and "Locations." Spaces are just that, spaces in which things live and in which sensors may be used to measure things. Spaces are located within Locations, which can be helpful in organizing large fleets of sensors. 

The hierarchy within Conserv Cloud, largest to smallest, is Location > Space > Sensor.

 

To add a new location or space head to the "Sensors" page by clicking the icon in the top of the left navigation panel.
