Skip to main contentOverview
Flux utilizes a comprehensive model to represent various types of facilities. Each facility type is defined with specific attributes and relationships.
Facilities
A facility is a representation of a physical location that is unique by their regulator_id (e.g. ABBT0030001), jurisdiction (e.g. Alberta), and regulator_system (e.g. Petrinex).
Facility Types
Facility types are regulatory categories (e.g. “BT” for Battery in Petrinex) that map to Flux facility models. These mappings allow consistent classification across different regulatory systems.
Facility Sub Types
Facility sub types link regulatory sub-categories to their parent regulatory types (e.g. “902” Custom Treating Battery links to “BT” Battery type in Petrinex). These sub type mappings ensure accurate representation and hierarchical classification of regulatory facilities in Flux models.
Commercial Facilities
Commercial facilities allow organizations to combine multiple facilities into
meaningful business units for marketing, stakeholder reporting, internal
tracking purposes, etc.
