1. A method comprising:
obtaining, by a processing system including a processor, first data corresponding to a first model, the first model being representative of an environment, the first model forming a scalable, reusable master model of selected aspects of the environment for analysis and modification of the environment;
receiving, by the processing system, an input that identifies: an object included in the environment, an attribute associated with the environment, and a filter to be applied to the first data;
obtaining, by the processing system and based on the input, a second model representative of a portion of the environment, wherein the portion of the environment is defined based on the object, the attribute, and the filter, the second model forming a sub-model based on the master model; and
generating, by the processing system and based on the second model, an output that identifies: a plurality of entities included in the portion of the environment, an interface between at least two entities of the plurality of entities, and an operating parameter associated with at least one entity of the plurality of entities, the output enabling data gathering and analysis of selected aspects of the sub-model.
