Merlin Enterprise: Data Management and Event Detection

Easy to Setup and Manage

Most data management systems leave you mired in the set-up work for graphing and reporting just to make sense of your measurements. Merlin eliminates that extra work, so you can focus on resource management.

Merlin’s innovative data inventory scheme makes setting up graphical displays fast and easy. Merlin automatically imports and consolidates all monitoring data into a single location where projects can be viewed and analyzed. There are no per-point fees or storage limitations.

Powerful Charting Improves Understanding
Merlin’s data presentation is best experienced through SiteHawk and extensive graphics capabilities. Map based data presentation can be combined with your GIS shape file overlay, and colored icons instantly reveal station status and alarm events to act on. Monitoring data can be plotted in real-time or for any time period, plus you can quickly identify relationships between any 2 series of measurements. Merlin Enterprise accurately presents your data so you can make more informed decisions about your monitoring system.

Automatic Status Reports Keep All Clients Notified
Merlin automatically delivers status reports via email so everyone is notified of important transactions. Merlin logs all transactions, and with time-stamped backup and data archiving, the risk of losing important data is eliminated.

Integration with Oracle, SQL, and SCADA Systems
Merlin integrates with enterprise databases, such as Oracle and SQL Server, and utilizes an OPC compliant interface that works with any SCADA system.

Greater Accessibility Improves Data Management
Merlin Enterprise includes both a desktop client interface and a web site. The client catalogs and manages all measurements, and is where thresholds are set and alarms are acknowledged. The Merlin client uses Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) to synchronize multiple clients running simultaneously. The web site provides a broad range of graphing and reporting tools where time series data can be shared and analyzed through a browser interface. You can select from the stock graphing packages like Merlin Chart, Create-a-Chart or Data Catalog, or build your own graphs that are created automatically as new data is received. All user access and rights to data are managed through a web based credential manager.

Strict QA/QC Standards Improve Reliability and Results
Merlin applies QA/QC data validation against thresholds set by the users. Monitoring data is QC’d in real-time before posting which improves reliability and limits false positives from triggering erroneous alarms, yet all original raw data is preserved and
available for review or revisions.
