Abstract
A method and apparatus uses a stored three dimensional model of an object to render an image showing a condition sensed by a building control system. The building condition may be sensed by a micro electromechanical system (MEMS) network that is wirelessly integrated into the building control system. The three dimensional model may include structural components, ventilation equipment, safety equipment, furniture and machinery and allow a user to navigate through the rendered image by varying the viewpoint of the rendered image.
