BACnet/IP → one canonical schema

Forge reads BACnet/IP from 3 OEM families and emits the same canonical JSON for every one of them. No per-vendor parser, no per-vendor schema.

Coverage

3 OEM families speaking BACnet/IP

Each links to its own mapping reference with vendor-specific tag shapes.

Mappings

Real BACnet/IP tags, normalized

Sampled from the live corpus — one example per vendor, so you can see the same canonical field arriving from different raw tag shapes.
