Feature Idea: Default Workflows #54
Comments
Thanks for this issue report and the related pull request. You have noted that the pull request is "in progress" and should not yet be merged, so I won't perform a full review. I list some initial feedback here:
The PlantData class is meant to be abstract, with subclasses able to load any type of data by overloading the prepare() method. I'd imagined that every organizational user with a different database / schema / input file convention and user base will implement their own org-wide PlantData class, which can load internal data in a streamlined way. I agree it would be useful to provide some more concrete PlantData classes within OpenOA that make more assumptions about the input data and are easier to use.
Our "report workflows" are called "methods" - overloaded term I know - and located here: https://github.com/NREL/OpenOA/tree/master/operational_analysis/methods I'd suggest implementing these reports as a method, at least for now. Might make more sense to call them "Workflows" or "Reports" down the line, as you suggest.
We do not yet have a mechanism to specify an output format for results. You run an analysis method and get some python object back. Up to the user to interpret the result object. I could see a new toolkit like "report_templates" or "views" to generate polished HTML or PDF reports from the results. Maybe add a function line "render()" to each method that relies on this toolkit. Just thinking out loud. Thanks for your work so far. I'll keep an eye on this issue. |
@bburns632 I think our v3 implementation has addressed much of the short term issues. If this is something that is still relevant to you (recognizing it's been 4.5 years though), please feel free to update the request. Otherwise, I'll plan to close this out. We've also been mulling over the idea of allowing for YAML/JSON analysis setup to power a lower code way to run OpenOA and get outputs. |
@RHammond2 Thanks for the update. You can close this out at your leisure. |
Hi all,
I love the toolkits available within OpenOA. In order to make this even more available to the wind industry and help with adoption, I think a simple, low touch, basic workflow/report will help. Think of it as a logical collection of some of the tools made available within this package. My thoughts on where to start and where this could go are below, and I very much welcome comments.
Target User:
A wind project manager, engineer, or performance analyst that would like to evaluate a few hundred wind turbines for operational performance issues. The purpose is to identify specific turbines with performance or operational issues for further inspection by either their maintenance crew, a specialist, or their OEM (if under warranty).
Assumptions:
This user has some access to turbine data via scada, OSI PI, Eta Pro, etc, but not unrestricted access.
A csv of 10 min averages for a subset of signals for all turbines for 2 years is something this user can access.
Turbines operating states are not reported in the 10 minute summary table.
This user has a basic knowledge of python (e.g. pip install, start notebook, enter some data, click button)
Short Term:
Create a jupyter notebook that is:
Long Term:
