For many building owners, the vast amount of data generated by a connected lighting system is overwhelming. A new service model is emerging: Lighting Data Analytics as a Service (DAaaS). Providers install and manage the lighting IoT network and then analyze the anonymized occupancy, space utilization, and energy data on a secure cloud platform. They provide clients with actionable insights through dashboards and reports—identifying underused spaces that can be reconfigured, optimizing cleaning schedules, or highlighting areas with abnormal energy consumption. This turns raw data into strategic business intelligence for real estate and operations managers. The service provider handles all the complexity of data security, storage, and analysis, allowing clients to reap the benefits of a smart building without needing in-house expertise.
