Content Management System (CMS)

Senfi's Content Management System (CMS) is the backend content management application. Spatial data, sensors data, system data, workflows rules, alarms, users, access groups etc. has to be configured on the CMS before they can be ingested by Senfi cloud and output to the Digital Twin for visualization and operation purposes.

Site Management

Senfi CMS has a Site Manager to enable Users to create and manage their own sites. Users can perform self-service uploading of 3D models or create their own user-drawn models, and in the long run, End-Users can perform updates on the 3D models on their own, without needing to re-engage the system integrators.

Sub-systems Integration

Senfi CMS provides Asset, Measurement and API Key management to allow self-service integration with the sub-systems. Connectors are used to allow Senfi to communicate with the sub-systems, and the point data transferred from the sub-systems are stored in measurements. Assets that may encompass one or more measurements are then used in Senfi to represent the physical object/system of interest in the real-world.

This gives End-Users the flexibility to continue expanding and onboarding new sub-systems in the future.

Rules Engine

Senfi CMS has a Rules Engine to allow Users to define automated workflows that can interoperate between the sub-systems (e.g. meeting room system can initiate a robot to clean up the meeting room after meeting ends). This allows Senfi to reduce manpower needed in operating building operations.

Backed by low-code/no-code user interface, Users can easily define the workflows via Expressions. When the conditions stated in the Expression are met, Events and/or Alarms are automatically triggered by Senfi as defined by User.

User Management

Senfi CMS has a comprehensive User management system to allow End-Users to perform self-service of user management. Through the CMS, End-Users can:

Add/Manage users
Create and assign Roles to users
Manage content access via Access Grouping

Who Should Be Using the CMS

Senfi's CMS low-code/no-code user interface can be used by anyone who needs to perform platform setups, for example:

System Integrators
Digital Team
End-User

+==== Site Management ====
-Senfi uses a 3D Model to replicate the real building for intuitive visualization. Users can not only view the exterior of the building, but also navigate around the interior. Senfi accepts various formats of 3D Model and in the case where Users do not have any 3D models of their building on hand, they can also create simple user-drawn model.

-Apart from providing spatial visualization, if a BIM model is being used, Senfi can also display the BIM objects' properties, allowing Users to have access to building objects details, which may assist in facility management uses.

-==== Assets Visualization ====
+[[File:Intro_CMS_Subsystem_Integration.png|800px|center|link=]]
-Assets in the 3D model are positioned exactly the same way they are positioned in the building in the physical world. Senfi uses 2D placemark icons to mark out every asset in the 3D model. This helps Users to get the idea of how each asset is placed in relative to the others. This is particularly useful in cases where Users need information from assets in the similar location, e.g. break-in detected at a door and security operators need to pull out CCTV footage from nearby CCTVs.

-On top of assets positioning, Users can also view the following from the assets:

-* Live data
-* External content such as web links to PDF, online manual etc.
-* Static data such as manufacturer info, date of installation, last date of maintenance etc.
-==== Unified Alarms Panel ====
-In the midst of unifying all sub-systems, Senfi also unifies the alarms across the sub-systems into one unified alarms panel. This reduces the tax on Operators to monitor multiple screens concurrently and look out for alarms in each of the systems, thereby reducing the chances of overlooking any important alarm.
