Incident Dossier Generation via Multi-System Data Aggregation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current systems for incident reconstruction lack efficiency in aggregating data from various building systems, leading to delayed damage assessment and response, and require manual searches that are time-consuming and costly.
Innovation Solution
A system and method for generating an incident dossier that automatically aggregates data from building systems, including alarm, video, social media, audio, and cardholder data, to create a comprehensive timeline and damage assessment, reducing the time required for incident reconstruction and improving response efficiency.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If data from various building systems is manually searched and aggregated, then complete incident information can be obtained, but the process becomes time-consuming and expensive
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple building management systems (video management system, alarm management system, fire management system, access control system, etc.) into a single integrated incident management platform. This consolidation allows automatic aggregation of incident data from all systems through centralized data import functionality, eliminating the need for manual searching across separate systems while maintaining complete incident information.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements automatic data aggregation where the incident management platform automatically imports and processes data from various building systems without requiring manual intervention. The system self-services by automatically correlating data from different sources, generating incident reports, and updating incident timelines, thereby reducing both time and labor costs while maintaining information completeness.
2Reliability
If multiple building management systems are used to track incident data, then comprehensive monitoring is achieved, but the complexity of collecting and logging personnel actions increases
Solution Approach 1:
The incident management platform serves as a universal system that can handle multiple types of data from various building management systems through a single interface. It provides multi-functional capabilities including data import, automatic correlation, timeline generation, report creation, and personnel action tracking, thereby maintaining comprehensive incident monitoring while reducing system complexity through consolidation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary incident management platform that acts as a mediator between multiple building management systems and the incident reconstruction process. This intermediary system automatically collects, correlates, and standardizes data from different sources, simplifying the complexity of data collection while maintaining reliable and comprehensive incident monitoring through centralized coordination.
3Measurement precision
If manual searches are conducted across multiple systems, then detailed incident data can be found, but the cost and time required increase significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by automatically importing, organizing, and correlating incident data from various building management systems before incident reconstruction begins. Data is pre-processed and stored in a standardized format with automatic timestamp correlation, so when incident reconstruction is needed, detailed information is already prepared and readily accessible, maintaining measurement precision while significantly improving productivity.

AI summary
Methods, devices, and systems for generating an incident dossier are described herein. One device includes a memory, and a processor configured to execute executable instructions stored in the memory to import data associated with an incident associated with a site, wherein the data is in a number of different forms, receive a number of user inputs associated with the incident, and generate an incident dossier based on the data associated with the incident and the number of user inputs, wherein the incident dossier includes a timeline of the incident, a report of the incident, and a damage assessment of the incident.
