Metrics transform measurements into meaning – the trick is knowing which to use where:
📈 Latest – most recent value, e.g. current tank level
🌡️ Min / Max – lowest or highest over a period, e.g. lowest level today
⏱️ Time Weighted Average – perfect for slow updates like dam level
💧 Integration – converts a rate (litres per second) into a total (litres)
🌧️ Total – sums events, e.g. gate openings or rainfall counts
📊 Difference – compares periods, e.g. change in level this week
⚙️ Accumulation – keeps rising even if the source resets, e.g. hourmeter
Metrics are calculated hourly and rolled up for your chosen period, letting you compare daily, weekly, or monthly trends.
Metrics turn “data” into understanding — from what’s happening to what’s changing and why.
