Search, Data Exploration and Industrial Canvas │ New Features

Search, Data Exploration and Industrial Canvas │ New Features

Hi everyone! 👋Today we released a range of new functionality, improvements, and bug fixes in both Industrial data search, Data Explorer and Industrial Canvas. Thank you to all who have provided feedback and posted suggestions to us here on Hub - many of you will recognize your feedback incorporated into what gets released today.  Industrial data searchOur focus since the March release has been around incremental improvements, fine-tuning some interactions, tidying up the user experience, and in parallel, working on some bigger customization functionality that we will release at the end of Q2. For today, we want to share with you this;  We have added sorting of search results to make it easier and quicker to find relevant data. You can now sort data (ascending/descending) throughout the user interface. The list of categories can be sorted on name or count it contains The list of search results can be sorted on all properties of the category Left: Sorting on Categories. Right: Sorting on Properties. The list of categories has gotten a face-lift with a default max number of categories shown, and a “show more” option if the number of categories is high.  The filters and search queries added as part of your exploration journey are now preserved during your user session to ease the exploration experience. When you start from the list of search results, you can now add filters and/or a search to filter down the list of result, dig into the filtered data, and be able to return to the list of filtered search without the need for going through the filtering steps again.  A new Statistics functionality has been added, enabling you to swiftly create visualizations of your data. This feature lets you categorize data based on specific properties and visualize aggregated metrics such as counts and averages. Please note, however, that the Statistics functionality is not supported for all data categories - you can use this feature for the categories listed under Other categories in the left hand sidebar.  The Statistics functionality can be used to create visualizations of you data.Our AI Copilot has been further integrated into the search functionality, streamlining the process of identifying categories and creating filters through conversational language. When you know chose to use the Copilot, you will the results appearing in the same interface as when you perform regular search. Additionally, the Copilot is equipped to autogenerate visualizations of statistics, further enriching your data exploration experience. You still trigger the Copilot the same way as before, choosing “Ask Copilot..”. AI Copilot is now more integrated into the Search experience.Some smaller bug fixes include increasing the portion of text we show (like for descriptions), and showing the label name instead of the label ID (thank you for reporting this!) Industrial CanvasToday we have released an improvement to the experience for finding and adding data to a canvas, by unifying the experience with the Industrial data search. When clicking “Add data” you’ll now recognize the experience from Industrial data search, which gives a more visual way of browsing your data, before adding it to the canvas.You recognize how the experience of finding and adding data to your Canvas is unified with the Industrial data search experience.Data ExplorerThere are two main improvements released today, both a result of feedback received from you here on Hub.  To ease and speed up data exploration, we are now preserving the applied filter(s) and search query while you browse in the details mode (they are reset when you exit the details mode). When you apply filter(s) and/or Search query in details mode, these are preserved while you are exploring data  We have made some adjustments to filtering logic in the common filters. In the Metadata filter, you’ll find that there are several keys, each typically having several values each. If you select several values for the same key, these are treated with the OR operation, while between keys we now apply the AND operation. Examples:  In the Metadata filter, you select the key “network level”, and two values. This selection is treated as: network level = production_subsystem OR production_system.  If you select another key in addition, this selection is treated with the AND operation: network level = production_subsystem OR production_system AND product_type = Gross. Combining the Metadata filter with other common or resource-specific filters is treated with the AND operation. Here we have applied the filters: network level = production_subsystem OR production_system AND product_type = Gross Let us know if you have questions or feedback!Best, Sofie Berge, on behalf of Cognite Product Management

Charts Updates and New Features

Hei Everyone! We're excited to announce the latest updates to Charts, designed to enhance your data visualization and analysis experience. In this release, we've focused on improving data viewing capabilities, introducing new features for better visual analysis, and enhancing monitoring job setup and validation. These enhancements are aimed at providing users with greater flexibility, control, and confidence in leveraging Charts for their data-driven decisions. a) Improved Chart Data Viewing and Trust in the data viewed - Increased the maximum number of raw data points viewable in a chart from 500 to 100,000.- Aggregate min/max shading is now enabled by default when switching to aggregate data. This substantial increase in data points allows for a more comprehensive analysis of data trends in RAW mode without the need to switch to aggregated views prematurely. This min / max shading being on by default should ensure that users are better aware of when they are viewing aggregated data. We hope that these changes should help build better trust in Charts and make the data look more similar to what is viewed in PI systems. b) Slider/Marker Functionality in Charts: - Users can set and delete multiple sliders/markers to compare values across various points in a time series. With this new functionality, users gain the ability to freeze values at specific points in time within a given chart. By setting multiple sliders/markers, users can effectively compare data values across different time series, enabling deeper insights into data trends and patterns. c) Backfilling of Monitoring Jobs - Receive a count of alerts that would have been triggered within the specified time frame when setting up a monitoring job   With this latest enhancement, users can now conduct historical runs of monitoring jobs before finalizing their configurations. Upon setting up a monitoring job, users will receive valuable insights into the number of alerts that would have been triggered within the specified time frame based on the configured thresholds. This functionality not only allows users to verify the effectiveness of their threshold values but also helps prevent the potential spamming of alerts by ensuring that thresholds are set at reasonable levels.

Let's keep this momentum going! Here’s a short video summarizing the exciting updates Enhanced data explorationWe are happy to share our newest enhancement to the search experience within Cognite Data Fusion, furthering our ambitions to deliver easy access to complex industrial data. This feature provides user-friendly search and enhanced context for industrial users, such as engineers, technical experts, and operational teams. You can narrow your search to a specific site - like an individual offshore asset or a processing facility - to make the search results more relevant. The search results are grouped and presented in an industrial context and can be viewed through a list view and a 3D view with a wide set of filter capabilities across all given data types. You can easily change between layered models to see CAD models, 360 images, and point cloud models.   AI-powered data explorationAs an advancement to traditional search and filtering of data models, users can now search using AI. You can toggle on AI and find data by using the example questions or write your own using natural language. You can at any time adjust the generated filters and also view the aggregates as charts and text summaries.   Manual contextualization of 3D models3D models such as CAD or laser scans don’t always contain the required information to link the model to assets, and current workflows require a fully contextualized 3D model to enable you to really benefit from the power of 3D. If you're adding 3D models to Cognite Data Fusion, you can now do manual contextualization of both CAD models and point cloud models in Cognite Data Fusion. The asset links can be reflected in all Cognite applications using the Reveal 3D viewer, enabling users to maximize value capture from applications such as InField and Maintain or any bespoke customer applications built with Cognite Reveal.  Saving no-code calculationsIf you're using CDF to create and run calculations, you can now create, save, and schedule the calculations in Charts. This eliminates the need to create Python scripts and deploy functions. The scheduled calculations can be consumed on external dashboards or used as input to advanced models.  Monitoring asset health indicatorsMonitoring asset health indicators and performance KPIs is one of the key jobs of engineers and subject matter experts when evaluating asset health. We’re now adding the ability to set up threshold-based monitoring in Charts, using raw time series or the saved no-code calculations. You can also enable email notifications to be sent out when thresholds are reached for the monitoring jobs.   Jupyter Notebook with AI copilotData scientists and data engineers can now work with and run Python scripts from Cognite Data Fusion without setting up infrastructure. This is a valuable tool when combining the power of Cognite Data Fusion with external tooling, such as data analytics packages, and when you need to enrich your data using custom logic. Notebooks run in a sandboxed environment inside the browser under the current user credentials, ensuring data integrity.We’re also introducing a code copilot integrated with Jupyter Notebook. By leveraging GenAI, the copilot will help you write and understand code. Code generated from natural language helps you get to value quicker by reducing the need to write boilerplate code or do advanced data analytics. We now support natural language data insights using large language models in notebooks. This allows you to ask questions about data retrieved from Cognite Data Fusion or to generate plots.  You can find the product documentation here Early adopter programsData workflows is a new managed process orchestration service within Cognite Data Fusion. Using CDF Workflows, you can orchestrate the order and timely execution of interdependent processes such as transformations, functions, requests to CDF, and dynamic tasks. The service is only available by joining the Early Adopter Program. Request participation through the group on Cognite Hub. Industrial data search enables industrial users without technical background to easily find relevant data. Search results show the industrial context with the ability to narrow down the search to a specific site/asset, and with several lenses/dimensions of searching and viewing data, such as via 3D, AI search, and standard search with list view and a range of filter capabilities.

Remember, you can always get in touch with us and the rest of the Cognite community here on Cognite Hub, share your ideas and stay up to date with the latest developments in our products. In addition, we can recommend the latest Cognite Product Tour video focusing on Asset Performance Management, and how Industrial DataOps and Cognite Data Fusion enables a new approach to optimizing the performance of your assets.  For the April release, we’re continuing the trend of improving how to find, explore and understand data in Cognite Data Fusion, and we’re also delighted to bring the new Data Modeling capabilities in Cognite Data Fusion to GA maturity, which means that we will be offering the same SLA and operational support for data models as we do for all other data stored in Cognite Data Fusion. Improvements to Search, navigation and 360 images in Data ExplorerBasic search capabilities in Cognite Data Fusion have now been improved, and all data stored in Cognite Data Fusion should now be searchable. Metadata, event types, document contents etc. are now all searchable. To make it easier to navigate the search results, we will show labels indicating why a particular result is shown, and are shipping several improvements to the filtering capabilities to make it easier to narrow down your search results. As always, nailing a search experience that fits every customer and set of data is no easy task, and we welcome your feedback and suggestions for improvements on Cognite Hub. We’re also upgrading the display of time series data in search results, and making it easier to open selected time series in Cognite Charts.  Complementing the data exploration release is an improvement in the performance and usability of 360 images in the Data Explorer. Large image sets caused performance issues and usability problems, and we have now shipped several improvements to make these more pleasant to work with. As always, the improvements here are also available in Cognite Reveal for use in your own applications.On the topic of Cognite Reveal, it is also worth noting that for this release, Cognite Reveal now supports textured 3D models, and is able to render these for an improved and more immersive and usable 3D experience. Please note that this feature does not target models with complex textures, such as photogrammetry models. It is necessary to re-upload old 3D models to Cognite Data Fusion to enable viewing of textured models.  Data Modeling - Generally AvailableWe’re delighted to make the new data modeling capabilities available with our standard SLA and support guarantees in this release. We’ve worked hard to iron out bugs and improve performance since February, and we think the current release is a major milestone in terms of making Cognite Data Fusion adaptable to a rich set of industry standards, representing data for a host of different use cases and making them easier to understand and use for all users and developers.The current release marks a big milestone for us in the maturity of this feature, but we are far from done. For June, we will be focusing on integrating the new data models fully into Cognite Data Fusion, shipping updates to the Data Explorer, Charting and Dashboarding, SDKs and connectors. In addition, you can expect the recommendations for how much data the Cognite Data Fusion can support in user-defined data models to grow steadily throughout the year. Expect a lot of exciting improvements in the time to come, and make sure to subscribe to Cognite Hub for the latest news on the developments.To complement the GA release of data modeling, we have also made a lot of improvements to how data is loaded into Cognite Data Fusion. Transformations are now easier to work with than before, and we are shipping an improved UI with automatically suggested mappings, improvements to the SQL editor and easier workflow for data transformations and mappings between data models.  Improvements to handling of P&ID diagramsP&IDs are a staple of industrial data, and this time we are shipping two improvements to how Cognite Data Fusion handles these. The contextualization capabilities for P&IDs have been improved to handle common shorthands for multiple references to tags, improving the accuracy of contextualization. To complement our search capabilities we are also shipping an automatic document classifier for P&IDs - based on machine learning on large amounts of diagrams, this classifier is able to accurately label P&ID diagrams in a wide variety of formats. This allows you to more easily filter search results and find the right diagrams across all relevant file formats.We hope you find some of these updates useful and valuable. If you have any feedback or ideas, we’d love to hear from you right here on Cognite Hub.  You can find the detailed documentation here

Cognite Data Fusion Release: February 2023

Cognite Data Fusion Release: February 2023 We’re excited to share the highlights of the February 2023 release of Cognite Data Fusion. Continuing on the theme from the December release, we’ve made substantial improvements to searching and exploring data in Cognite Data Fusion. We’re also improving our support for document annotations, working with data transformations, and launching a major update of our enhanced data modeling features. For an overview of the release, watch the release spotlight video below.  Before we go into the details of the February release, remember that you can always post feedback and product ideas right here on Cognite Hub. We also recommend checking out our blog for the latest on the trends and thinking that are shaping the future trajectory of our product. Improvements to Data search, Document browsing, and 3D explorationIt's easier to apply filters to your search, filtering on multiple values within the same filter and combining multiple filters to narrow down your search. When you look at the search results, the results view is more customizable, offering you to select, sort, and change the layout of the columns displayed in the search results.When you’re viewing documents in Cognite Data Fusion, we’ve added support for a large range of common file formats, which now display natively in the document viewer. This includes text files, JSON files, spreadsheets, documents, and slides.  You’ll also find a new  option of laying out multiple documents in the same viewer. This is in particular useful when reading engineering diagrams, as these documents often break across pages or documents. Now, you can view them side-by-side to trace the flow of a connection. Using our contextualized engineering diagrams makes it trivial to open and view the next document from a connection exiting the page you are viewing and gives a holistic view of the system. Tip! These views can easily be bookmarked and shared with others to make recall and collaboration easier.Adding and consuming annotations enrich and power up the contents in engineering diagrams and other industry documents. We’re now shipping a unified Annotations API to make it easier to work with these annotations across all documents in Cognite Data Fusion. This will enable 3rd party applications to create and consume annotations, and the annotations will be visible inside Cognite Data Fusion. Over the next few months, we will transition all of our own applications to make use of this API, ensuring consistent views of documents across our entire product portfolio.The final major improvement made to data exploration in Cognite Data Fusion is to add support for viewing 360-degree images in the data explorer. You can view these images  in isolation or in the context of a point cloud or CAD/BIM model, providing a “street view”-experience where you can walk around your site or asset in high-fidelity imagery, making it easy to understand physical details and relationships without physically visiting the facility.  Connectivity improvements - Files and Energy data platformThis release sees the addition of improved connectivity for ingesting files into Cognite Data Fusion. Documents, diagrams, and files are almost always a key supplementary source of information to enrich and contextualize the digital twin in Cognite Data Fusion. Making it easier to ingest these makes it easier to leverage our new exploration and viewing capabilities. We’re now shipping a file extractor that supports local server file systems, several network sharing protocols, like FTP and SFTP, SharePoint, Google Cloud Storage, and Azure Blob storage. The extractor is easy to set up and automatically detects file formats and ensures the proper processing pipeline. We’re also shipping a public Beta version of an extractor for data platforms adhering to the OSDU Open Group specification. Commonly seen in the Energy sector, OSDU data platforms are a great initiative to standardize structure and formats for key data categories. Use the new Cognite OSDU extractor It is now easy to connect to and extract data from OSDU platforms to Cognite Data Fusion, where the data  can be further contextualized and blended into a richer industrial digital twin to enable new use cases and applications. Data transformation - Usability improvementsPreviously, setting up data transformations in Cognite Data Fusion required some knowledge of SQL to express the transformation logic. With the February release, we’re adding a simple drag and drop interface to set up simple mappings between properties without resorting to writing SQL code. You’ll’ get automated suggestions to simplify the mapping process. Writing full SQL is still possible, and the interface now supports auto-completion and numerous other tweaks to make this experience easier. Enhanced data modeling - Beta updateWe’ve written a lot about our new and enhanced data modeling capabilities. February sees us publish what we believe to be the last Beta update of this capability. Based on user feedback from Beta customers, and internal validation, we now think the February update is feature complete. What remains between now and the General Availability  release is additional testing, validation and hardening of the product to ensure we can consistently meet our SLA across the wide variety of use cases we will enable for you. Our enhanced data modeling capabilities allow you to model any kind of industry domain, from well-known industry standard data models to whatever you need to enable your applications and solutions. Read more about these capabilities in this press release.  Cognite InRobot Early Adopter ProgramWe are thrilled to announce we have launched the Cognite InRobot Early Adopter Program. Here you are invited to accelerate your robotics adoption to automate your work processes. You can find the group here, we hope you’ll request to join if this is of interest to you. InRobot is a powerful application that enables you to configure and deploy your robots in an efficient and effective manner. With InRobot, you have the ability to remotely control, plan, and execute a wide range of robotics missions, including the automatic capturing of street views, the execution of autonomous visual operator rounds, and capture data for monitoring conditions of equipment.You get the same benefits from robots using InRobot, like increased frequency and repetition of data capture at your site, in addition, to reduce the number of hours that workers spend in the field, thereby increasing the overall safety of your operations. With InRobot all data is properly linked in Cognite Data Fusion thereby enhancing your understanding your plant and potentially the risk picture. Read detailed documentation here We hope you find some of these updates useful and valuable. If you have any feedback or ideas, we’d love to hear from you right here on Cognite Hub.

Cognite Data Fusion Release: December 2022

The December 2022 release of Cognite Data Fusion contains major improvements in search and exploration of data, 3D and 360 degree image support, charting capabilities, and so much more. Keep reading, or watch the video for a full overview of what we’re delighted to bring you, just in time for Christmas.  Before we dive into the details of the December release, we also recommend our December 2023 Product Tour, where you can see a lot of the new features being demonstrated in real-world use cases. COGNITE DATA FUSION DECEMBER 2022 RELEASE IMPROVEMENTSImprovements to Data Search and ExplorationFinding the data you are looking for in Cognite Data Fusion can sometimes be hard. Based on your collective feedback, we have invested in making this experience a lot better, which comes together in the form of multiple improvements all targeted at making the job of finding the right data in Cognite Data Fusion as simple as possible.Global search is now available across all data types, and you can also search inside documents. When searching, we have added rich mechanisms to filter and sort your search results, making it easy to narrow down on the exact results you are looking for. The table view of search results has also seen an update, making it easier to customize the view and sort the results on different columns. In order to affect this change while ensuring operational stability, we will be enabling some of these features gradually per project over the coming weeks.To complement search and filtering, we have also added a lot of new 3D capabilities to the Data Explorer in Cognite Data Fusion. Using a 3D model to explore data allows you to leverage and understand physical locations and relationships of assets and equipment. We now ship a built-in full-screen 3D experience, where you can view contextualized data like documents, time series, events and images directly from the 3D model. The 3D viewer also supports slicing and measurements, allowing you to focus on the parts of the model you’re interested in, and also to understand the physical dimensions of the actual asset being shown.Easily find the data you need in context across 3D, documents, time series and events. The Data Exploration experience has also seen an overhaul of the user experience, based on your feedback and a desire to make finding data as simple as possible. You can expect further improvements in this area in the February release. Updated 3D capabilities, 360 degree images, point clouds, and moreThese new 3D capabilities are supported by our updated Cognite Reveal SDK, which is now released in version 4.0. It also brings support for 360 degree images, which allow you to create a “street view” like experience from traversing your 3D models, which can be a great way to complement a 3D model with immediately recognizable imagery from the actual site or asset. Support for point clouds is also available in the 4.0 update of Cognite Reveal, with improvements in rendering to make it easier to understand spatial relationships in a point cloud model. We have made it possible to isolate objects when rendering point clouds. This allows you to provide a rich experience when navigating a large point cloud model, adding isolation, color coding and interactive mechanisms for point cloud models. In addition to these major updates, Cognite Data Fusion also now provides native support for the Autodesk Navisworks NWD format. In total, these capabilities add up to providing great support for fully integrating 3D data into Cognite Data Fusion, and leveraging 3D and imagery when exploring data or building applications on top of Cognite Data Fusion. Cognite Charts integrated with Cognite Data Fusion, and event overlaysCognite Charts has been widely adopted by our customers, and has one of the most active communities of users. Previously, the integration between the other tools in the platform and Cognite Charts has been suboptimal: Cognite Charts had a separate URL requiring a separate login to access causing  unnecessary user friction. As part of our desire to make Cognite Data Fusion a great tool for simple access to complex industrial data, we are delighted to announce that we are bringing Cognite Charts into the main user interface. It is now available from fusion.cognite.com, no separate URL or login is required. This is a first step in bringing a better user experience across the entire product, integrating all of our main platform tools in one place. Charts also comes with a major feature update: you can now view Events in Cognite Data Fusion as overlays to a chart. Combining events and time series charts is often critical to understanding the correlations that are key to effective analysis and troubleshooting.  Make it easier to onboard data into Cognite Data FusionContinuing on a theme from past releases, we have made several improvements to the data extraction capabilities of Cognite Data Fusion. It is now possible to browse extractors by source systems - this allows you to find tailored components and recipes based on the actual source systems you are connecting to. To complement this, we will be investing in writing up more of our own experience and best practices when it comes to data onboarding, so stay tuned for more updates on this topic here on  Cognite Hub and our documentation.In addition, we added three extractors specific for well related data in the Oil & Gas sector: Cognite WITSML extractor, Cognite EDM extractor and Cognite Studio for Petrel extractor. This allows our users to withdraw data from highly used sources, and make it available through CDF to complete advanced well delivery workflows.  Data Management - Add Data Catalog to Cognite Data FusionA cornerstone of a scalable DataOps Platform is the ability to create, manage and monitor a large number of data products from the platform. With the upcoming general avail ability release of our Flexible Data Modeling capabilities, this will become even more important. To take the first steps in providing an improved data management experience, we have shipped the first iteration of a data catalog inside Cognite Data Fusion. Expect this service to mature into a more holistic offering for understanding, exploring and managing data products in the course of 2023. API & SDK Improvements, Japanese Language supportOur Python SDK has seen a major upgrade - the version 5.0 release focuses on performance improvements when accessing data points from many different time series, and brings functional parity between the Data Points API and the SDK. For most users, the 5.0 upgrade should be a drop-in replacement for the current version of the SDK.We have also added cursor support to the time series APIs - making it easier to navigate and retrieve large sets of time series data points, and bringing API parity with the other data retrieval APIs of CDF.Finally, some love for our Japanese users: Document search now ships with improved support for Japanese documents.We hope you find some of these updates useful and valuable. If you have any feedback or ideas, we’d love to hear from you right here on Cognite Hub. Stay tuned for more news and product updates as we move into 2023.Read the December Release Documentation
