As can be seen, the dots are color-coded for each asset:
Asset color
Each asset’s color can be changed within the design tab:
Asset type
The icon next to assets indicates its type. This icon means number type:
Boolean and date are examples of other types.
Widget filters
Here are widget filters:
Widget filters specify a filter for the widget that displays on the dashboard. Widget filters override tab filters. Widget filters are typically set once, while tab filters can be changed while looking at a particular dashboard.
Widget filter example

This widget will only display values between 11,000 and 100,000. The entity field is where the values come from.
You can click the plus button to add AND or OR filters:
Categorical widgets
These are the categorical widgets you can choose from:
Asset bar graph example

The dimensions and metrics above group the assets by type. The count is indicated next to the asset metric.
The chart indicates there are five floor-level type assets:
Assets that have a particular attribute example
The dimensions and metric on the left generate the graph on the right:
There is one asset of each type:
For the gas meter, the value of this asset is -12:
Whereas the value of the water meter’s asset is 0:
Tab filters
Click Assets if you’re only concerned with particular assets:
Click the dropdown to filter by a particular asset:
Select the asset you want to filter by to only see data of it:
The tab filter is only temporary, even after you save the dashboard. Unlike the tab filter, the widget filter, which appears on the bottom left of the page, will persist after you save.
Single-value indicators

This displays the total asset count in the whole system. The values in each widget are the same (18) but are displayed differently.
Average asset temperature example
The revised metrics on the left side of the page updated the value on the right of the page:
You also have options to display the maximum and minimum temperatures. The values on the left of the page only update whatever widget you selected on the right.
Utilize filters to filter by a particular time range, for instance:

Here is an example of what displays:

This table shows asset types and how many assets belong to each of them:
This table displays when you add another dimension to show assets within groups within asset types:
Add the average temperature metric to only display asset types that have it:
Click the icon next to the Temperature and Asset metrics to show asset types regardless of whether they have a temperature or not:
Use filters as appropriate.
Here is an example of only showing gas asset types:
