MAINTAIN : 2D location information

Hi @Abram Ziegelaar and thank you for this product idea.

The lead product manager for Maintain - @Marius Biermann - has started evaluating your idea, and should be providing follow-ups through this topic as they determine the appropriate course of action for the product.

Hello Abram, thanks for reaching out!

Understanding a plan, or plan of plans, from a 2D perspective is certainly within the realm of Maintain. What type of 2D are we talking here?

Today we support 2D diagrams e.g. such as plot plans found under the canvas button. Depending on your use case and the state of you 2D diagrams we can also work with you to make them smarter e.g. identifying zones in plot plans.

Curious to here more what you are looking for here!

This request concerns only a button on the Maintain interface for easy access to 2D plot plans, flow diagrams, P&ID’s etc that contain contextualized annotations relevant to the ASSET within the ACTIVITY  in question. The 3D button we assume zooms to an asset identified in a 3D Model. We understand that only works for 3D CAD models at present, since similar identification in point cloud models is not yet available. In brown field sites where a 3D CAD model doesn’t exist, 2D location plans & other 2D drawings are available & can be annotated.

The objective is a direct way to;

1. Select an activity
2. ‘show me all 2D drawings that this asset is identified in’

CANVAS doesn’t do this.

An indirect way of doing it is;

1. Click on an activity and a detail window pops up
2. Select the ASSET button on detail window
3. Click on 2D button : get a list of all documents. Not able to filter based on document types.

Ah, understood. Yes, flicking between the lenses without having to find the location related documents through the inspector will be supported.

In the mean time you should be able to configure document types such that it is easier to locate the 2D location diagrams, this is supported today.

Thanks for the screens and mark-up, super useful, please keep them coming!

On second thought, there should also be an option to click the eye button on the work order, gets you there in two clicks. Let me know how that works!
