A system and method analyzes resource consumption without requiring sensors at every device for which consumption is analyzed. Data rates used to provide resource use information may be increased or decreased based on user actions.
대표청구항▼
1. A method, comprising: receiving data related to resource use at a metered location;identifying, by a processor, a first resource use area included in a graph of the resource use over time, wherein the first resource use area indicates the resource use by one or more devices at the metered locatio
1. A method, comprising: receiving data related to resource use at a metered location;identifying, by a processor, a first resource use area included in a graph of the resource use over time, wherein the first resource use area indicates the resource use by one or more devices at the metered location over a specific period of time;identifying, by the processor, exceptional resource use at the metered location based on information related to a first device at the metered location that caused, at least in part, the resource use reflected by the first resource use area; andtransmitting or storing information related to correcting the exceptional use. 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising receiving from a user an identifier associated with the first device. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein identifying the exceptional resource use is further based on the resource use associated with the first resource use area. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the first resource use area is associated with at least one steep slope of the graph. 5. The method of claim 1, further comprising receiving information about the price of the resource; and determining the cost of the first resource use area. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the information related to correcting the exceptional use is transmitted directly to a user. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the information related to correcting the exceptional use is transmitted directly to a retailer. 8. The method of claim 1, further comprising receiving information related to a known resource use of the first device at the metered location, and wherein identifying the exceptional use at the first metered location is based on the known resource use of the first device at the metered location. 9. The method of claim 1, further comprising receiving information related to weather, and wherein identifying the exceptional use at the first metered location is further based on the information related to the weather. 10. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform the steps of: receiving data related to resource use at a metered location;identifying a first resource use area included in data of the resource use, wherein the first resource use area indicates the resource use by one or more devices at the metered location; andidentifying exceptional resource use at the metered location based on information related to a first device at the metered location, wherein the first device caused, at least in part, the resource use reflected by the first resource use area. 11. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10, further comprising receiving from a user an identifier associated with the first device. 12. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10, wherein identifying the exceptional resource use is further based on the resource use associated with the first resource use area. 13. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10, wherein the data of resource use comprises a graph and the first resource use area is associated with at least one steep slope of the graph. 14. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10, further comprising receiving information about the price of the resource; and determining the cost of the first resource use area. 15. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10, further comprising transmitting information related to correcting the exceptional use directly to either a user or a retailer. 16. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10, further comprising receiving information related to a known resource use of the first device at the metered location, and wherein identifying the exceptional use at the first metered location is based on the known resource use of the first device at the metered location. 17. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 16, further comprising receiving information related to a second known resource use of a second device at the metered location, and wherein identifying the exceptional use at the first metered location is further based on the second known use of the second device at the metered location. 18. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10, further comprising receiving information related to weather, and wherein identifying the exceptional use at the first metered location is further based on the information related to the weather. 19. A system, comprising: a memory including instructions; anda processor that is coupled to the memory and, when executing the instructions, is configured to: receive, from a meter, data related to resource use at a metered location;identify a first resource use area included in a graph of the resource use, wherein the first resource use area indicates the resource use by one or more devices at the metered location; andidentify exceptional resource use at the metered location based on information related to a first device at the metered location, wherein the first device caused, at least in part, the resource use reflected by the first resource use area. 20. The system of claim 19, wherein the processor is further configured to receive information related to a known resource use of the first device at the metered location, and wherein the processor is configured to identify the exceptional use at the first metered location based on the known resource use of the first device at the metered location.
