Cross-Compatible Data Ontologies to Create a Smarter Buildings Market
The smarter a building is, the more data it produces, so as smart buildings mature they face an ever-increasing data management problem. The more data a building produces, the more accurate and insightful its smart systems can be, but only if the data can be harnessed, otherwise that growing “data lake” becomes a costly burden. […]

Convergence of Key Ontologies Could Drive the Standardization of Smart Buildings
“The effective harmonization of building data from different systems has long posed a challenge. Recently there has been a big push in the smart buildings market to develop improved frameworks, models and ontologies for smart building data management,” reads our latest research study on the IoT in buildings. “New semantic data models that provide a common […]

#Podcast 12: We Need Open Standards Not “EgoSystems” for True Interoperability!
In our Podcast series “Sh*t You Wish Your Building Did!”, Memoori explores the intersection between technology and commercial real estate through interesting conversations. Everyone talks about ‘Open’ in Smart Building Technology, but what is hype and what is reality? Are ‘Open APIs’ a myth? We sat down with Erik Wallin from Idun Real Estate and RealEstateCore […]

Standards Vs Ecosystems: The Battle for Interoperability
Our physical world is being colonized by digital technology that seeks to sense, interpret, interface, and augment the human experience. Across the built environment, connected devices promise to feed advanced AI systems with all manner of data on the real world to bring about advanced automation and actionable insight. However, the sheer scale of the […]

We Already Have The Technology, Now We Need It To Work Together
In 2022, we already have the tools to make buildings smarter. What the smart buildings industry needs to do now, is to make their technology more accessible. “What the next decade is likely to bring us in building automation and integration is access. This means access between systems that have traditionally been independent, access to the […]
