PURPOSE OF THE APP


The app is used by BBEnergy clients to access information on the Wabbit-IoT cloud, hosted by BBEnergy. Typical information on the cloud includes water, energy, waste, carbon and production information that is gathered by BBEnergy via the internet and directly from meters via an APN. The data is then presented (using Highcharts) in graphs and gauges. This will later be expanded to include specific client dashboards (Highcharts) and reports (SQLServer SSRS).


The app also has Firebase functionality, which is used to send notifications to the app if certain conditions in the cloud data set is met, for instance if the pressure in a waterpipe is too high, or the level in a dam or tank is too low.


The app can also be used to enter data into the database via the “data entry” menu item. This is used by clients to enter data manually, which is not available via any other means. An example would be water and energy utility bills.
