Sites and Features

Periscope is licensed by the number of sites being used in your installation, as well as which features a user would like to purchase.  A "site" according to Project Haystack is:

A site entity models a single facility using the site tag. A good rule of thumb is to model any building with its own street address as its own site. For example a campus is better modeled with each building as a site, versus treating the entire campus as one site.

Periscope also has optional View and Viewlet bundles and other features that are licensed individually and require a certain part number in order to operate. A breakdown of software features is listed below. 

Point Relations

Points and trends must be associated with a tagged site in order to work in Periscope. See our documentation on relations tagging for more information.

Periscope Bundles and Optional Features

All installations of Periscope contain the "base" bundle which includes generic and commonly used views and viewlets.  Additionally, Periscope has three optional bundles available: Energy, Sustainability, and Analytics.  These bundles contain a carefully chosen group of viewlets and features pertaining to a specific usage.  The list of available features for each bundle is below:
