Property Types

  • Building: A single physical property.
  • Campus: A logical property composed of one or more child properties (e.g. buildings).

​
Meter Relationships

Meters may be configured to have different relationships to properties.
Abisko currently only supports campus configurations from ESPM. In Abisko, there is no way to set a meter as ‘in-metric’ for a property that does not own the meter. This functionality is coming soon.
  • Owned meters: Meters that are physically installed on and/or owned by a property. Owned meters can be in-metric or out-of-metric for the property on which they are located.
    A meter is considered owned by the property in which it is created.
  • In-metric meters: Meters that contribute to a property’s whole-building (or whole-property) performance metrics, regardless of ownership.
Ownership and in-metric status are independent.
  • A property may have meters that are owned but not in-metric → e.g. a property has a meter located on its premises, but the meter is only in-metric with its parent campus property
  • A property may have meters that are in-metric but not owned → e.g. the parent property in the converse example.

Examples: Campus & Child Property Meter Configurations

An example of a campus with multiple child properties with different meter configurations. Group 1000002809
  • ‘Campus A’ Property: The campus property above owns no meters while having 5 ‘in-metric’ meters that are owned across multiple child properties.
    • Campus-level ‘Whole building’ performance metrics are calculated based on its 5 ‘in-metric’ meters that are owned by its two child properties.
  • Child properties are managed independently with their own ‘owned’ & ‘in-metric’ meters.
    • Building 1: Has 4 owned meters, of which 3 are ‘in-metric’.
      • Building 1 ‘Whole building’ performance metrics are calculated based on its 3 ‘in-metric’ meters.
      • Building 1 has also has 3 owned meters that are ‘in-metric’ for Campus A and contribute to the ‘Whole Building’ performance metrics of Campus A.
    • Building 2: Has 2 owned meters, of which only 1 is ‘in-metric’.
      • Building 2 ‘Whole building’ performance metrics are calculated based on its 1 ‘in-metric’ meter.
      • Building 2 has also has 2 owned meters, both of which are ‘in-metric’ for Campus A and contribute to the ‘Whole Building’ performance metrics of Campus A.
