Integrating Locus Applications with Tableau Using Locus APIs

One of the most requested integrations is to combine Locus applications with business intelligence (BI) software such as Microsoft’s Power BI and Salesforce’s Tableau Software. These applications, and others like them, consume offline and online data sources and turn the data into visualizations of various types such as line charts, scatter plots, or dot maps. A user can perform further analysis on the data to look for trends and make predictions. The user can also arrange the visualizations into custom dashboards or reports, and then share these with other users.

Organizations with EHS data may already have invested time, money, and effort to create custom visualizations and reports in their business intelligence software. Because EIM and LP both can be integrated with business intelligence software, users can leverage their data stored in EIM and LP and continue to exploit their existing investments in business intelligence software.

This document provides an outline for how to integrate EIM and LP with Tableau.


Integrating Locus Applications with Microsoft Power BI Using Locus APIs

One of the most requested integrations is to combine Locus applications with business intelligence (BI) software such as Microsoft’s Power BI and Salesforce’s Tableau software. These applications, and others like them, ingest offline and online data sources and present the data in various types of interactive visualizations, such as line charts, scatter plots, or dot maps. A user can perform further analysis on the data to look for trends and make predictions. The user can also arrange the visualizations into custom dashboards or reports, and then share these with other users.

Organizations with EHS data may already have invested time, money, and effort to create custom visualizations and reports in their business intelligence software. Because Locus EHS software can be integrated with business intelligence software, users can leverage their data stored in their EHS system to maximize their investments in business intelligence software.

This document provides an outline for how to integrate Locus EIM and Locus Platform (LP) with Microsoft’s Power BI.


9 Keys to Selecting Sustainable ESG Reporting Software

Organizations face increased accountability for ESG performance, making it crucial to convert science, financial, and non-financial data into auditable ESG disclosures.

Use of the right technology can streamline data compilation and produce reliable sustainability reports. When choosing an ESG software solution look for these 9 keys to ensure it offers what your company needs.


10 Tips for Easy and Successful GHG and LCFS/CFP verifications

After completing hundreds of verifications for greenhouse gas reports as well as reports and applications under Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) and Clean Fuels Program (CFP), Locus’ team of verifiers has identified thousands of errors and missteps that reporters and applicants commonly make when assembling their reports.

Unfortunately, verifiers like Locus are prevented from providing consulting advice directly to their reporters (due to regulatory conflict of interest requirements), so we aren’t allowed to share findings with our reporters that would make their job easier, or that would make their reports more accurate. The verifier is only allowed to state whether or not the report meets the requirements of the regulations.

Here, for the first time, is what your verifier is really thinking, but isn’t legally allowed to tell you directly: a list of the most common issues that are causing reporters additional time or cost, and how to avoid them.

IoT Technology for Enhanced Environmental Compliance

IoT is considered one of the fastest growing trends in technology and has a potentially huge impact to automate how we manage water quality, air emissions and other key environmental performance indicators for data monitoring.

In this white paper, we focus on how EHS programs can benefit from integration and interoperability of a multi-tenant cloud platform and Internet of Things (IoT) platforms for managing, organizing, and monitoring the structured and unstructured data coming from various different sources. Once in the platform, a centralized data repository is created that is suitable for analyzing the key environmental indicators for management, sustainability, and environmental compliance.
