Introduction

HxGN Smart Sites is a layer on top of all the systems and data in your organization, bringing information together in an intuitive user tool. It allows you to feed all the data coming from various data formats, databases, ogc services or live data feeds such as sensor or security cameras and turn it into actionable intelligence via its web interface, and protected by configurable authentication and authorization.

Using HxGN Smart Sites, you can create workspaces from the collection of data that is of interest to you, make annotations, interact with and filter the data to complete tasks with a few clicks instead of investigating issues in the physical world. Share this information within an organization to collaborate with your colleagues. HxGN Smart Sites can be deployed in the cloud or on premise. Although offered as an off the shelf product, it can also be customized if required.

HxGN Smart Sites - Discovery​

This product 'add-on option' allows an organization to make a limited environment (pre-set workspace with basic data and features) available to an unlimited number of users within a site. Think about a visitor app for patients from a hospital for example.

This is an add-on meaning that standard HxGN Smart Sites users are also needed in this scenario.

HxGN Smart Sites Users​

While anyone in an organisation can be a user of HxGN Smart Sites, due to the different interaction required for them the user types are divided into administrators and end users.

Admin Users​

Admin users are users who are familiar with the systems in an organization (including user management systems), geospatial data available, and have information on how this data can be used by which type of end users.

As the administration step is the first step that needs to be completed, each organisation requires at least one Admin User. This user can access the Admin Page and the End User Application. More information can be found on the Admin Guide.

End Users​

End users can be any user in an organisation ranging from project planners, security personnel, cleaning crews to maintenance workers or cad engineers. Any user who can book efficiencies from interacting with a digital twin of their organisation can use the HxGN Smart Sites End User Application to visualise the data made available to them by the admin and interact with it.
