Claim 29:
30. A method of monitoring a status of grid devices using sensor measurements, the method comprising:
clustering, by a computing device, sensor data using a predefined grouping distance value to define one or more sensor event clusters, wherein the sensor data includes a plurality of sensor measurements, wherein each sensor measurement of the plurality of sensor measurements includes a signal intensity measurement value, a location of a sensor when the signal intensity measurement value was determined by the sensor, and a time that the signal intensity measurement value was determined by the sensor, wherein the signal intensity measurement value is measured for a signal emitted by a monitored device, wherein each sensor measurement is assigned to a single sensor event cluster with each sensor event cluster having a size defined by the predefined grouping distance value;
clustering, by the computing device, a plurality of monitored devices using a predefined clustering distance value to define one or more asset clusters, wherein the monitored device is one of the plurality of monitored devices, wherein each monitored device is assigned to a single asset cluster with each asset cluster having a size defined by the predefined clustering distance value, wherein a location is associated with each monitored device of the plurality of monitored devices;
computing, by the computing device, a distance between each sensor event cluster and each asset cluster;
when the computed distance is less than or equal to a predefined asset/sensor distance value for a sensor event cluster and an asset cluster, adding, by the computing device, an asset identifier of the asset cluster associated with the computed distance to an asset event list; and
for each asset cluster included in the asset event list, showing, by the computing device, an asset location of an asset on a map in a graphical user interface presented in a display, wherein the asset location is associated with the asset identifier of a respective asset cluster included in the asset event list.
