What's new in 2024

​

New and updated features

​

Cognite Data Fusion

• Explore charts or canvases under Solutions in the search sidebar. On the search details page, you’ll find the Appears in section if the data you’ve queried appears on a canvas.
• See data that are directly and indirectly linked on a separate card in the search results.
• Sort documents by their category, such as P&IDs or data sheets. Open the File tab in search, Canvas, or Charts and select View categories.
  • If you’re using asset-centric data modeling, the document categories are based on NORSOK’s categorization rules. CDF sorts by the doc_type metadata and if this metadata doesn’t exist, CDF sorts by title. If this doesn’t match, the documents are placed within a Not categorized section.
  • If you’re using core data modeling, CDF sorts by the CogniteFileCategory property.
• If you’re browsing 3D models, you can open a 3D scene or a specific 3D model. Select Ghost mode to gray out areas that are out of focus for your work. In 3D scenes, insert points of interest, add comments, and share the link to the point of interest with your coworkers. CDF stores the camera position, the clipping planes, the linked asset, and the coordinates. Under Settings, you’ll find new options for visualization controls:
  • Adjust image transparency to reveal structures.
  • Hide all markers or hiding markers blocked by objects in front of you.
  • Navigate between previously viewed 360° images using the arrows in the top toolbar.

• Set up simulator integrations to connect first-principle simulation tools and CDF. Simulation integrations can be used for real-time asset performance optimization, predictive maintenance, what-if scenario analysis, and digital twin development. Use the Cognite API to create simulation workflows and the CDF interface to manage simulation resources and explore simulation results. We provide out-of-the-box connectors to industry-standard simulator tools. Build data workflow tasks that interact with the simulator integration routines and enable automated, repeatable simulation workflows for data transfers between CDF resources and simulations.
• Use the Diagram parsing tool to analyze engineering diagrams to extract information. This tool automatically detects and maps asset and file tags to CDF resources. For files with SVG elements, Diagram parsing identifies symbols, lines, and connections, and builds a knowledge graph in CDF. You can review and verify the automatic mappings as part of the process. (Beta)
• When you’re contextualizing 3D objects, use the unified 3D contextualization editor for CAD, point clouds, or 360° images. You’ll see context for a scene and can locate specific structures, such as identifying where a 360° image is positioned in the scene or determining which equipment a point cloud represents. The 360° image contextualization now also support data modeling. You can mark images and link them to assets using the resource selector. The automatic tag detection now processes all 360° images, and generates suggestions for discovered tag numbers. You can review these suggestions, link them to assets if correct, edit incomplete tags, or discard incorrect suggestions.
• In Data workflows, scope access to specific data sets and set up event-based triggers to automate workflows based on data changes. (Beta)
• For Transformations that require full table-reads, you can read content from CDF Files in NDJSON format by referencing the file in an SQL statement. This is an alternative to using the CDF staging area for transformations where increamental loading (is_new) isn’t possible.
• Cognite Functions can now be used on CDF projects running in an Amazon Web Services (AWS) cluster.
• We’re introducing a new Cognite connector to allow write-back for a bidirectional flow of SAP notification and attachment data between SAP S/4HANA and CDF. The Cognite SAP extractor now allows OData v2 or the OData v4 SAP S/4HANA endpoints to ingest SAP data to CDF. Copilot for documents and the Azure Event Hub and REST API extractors have now been released into general availability.

​

Cognite API updates

​

New and updated features

​

Cognite Data Fusion

• Ask Cognite Copilot to help you find answers across multiple documents. This feature is optimized for finding answers in PDF files with text. Copilot can search a maximum of 100 documents. This feature is available on Canvas and on the details page when you’ve searched for data.
• Previously, the Data explorer was the default search engine in the Industrial tools workspace. With this release, the search tool is the default search engine. To keep the Data explorer as your default search engine, select Open Data explorer in the top bar banner. Notice how the menu item in the sidebar switches names. This adjustment aligns with the upcoming solution where search will be the only search engine in the Industrial tools workspace and Data explorer the only search engine in the Data management workspace. Overall, search includes these additional features to Data explorer:
  • Search data from any type of data model, including CogniteCore and CogniteProcessIndustry. In Data explorer, you can only search for data from asset-centric data models.
  • Extended 3D model options, such as scenes that are linked to locations, advanced measuring features, and objects highlighted in color according to set thresholds.
  • A Copilot that filters and finds data and helps you summarize information in one or more documents.
  • Locations to narrow down data and context.
• Sort search results in a Tree view . For asset-centric data models, you can select an asset in the tree to expand the view and see the parent/child relationship. You’ll see the tree as a card on the details page. Note that you can’t use the Filter button or search with text in this view.
• When you use 3D in search, you can crop and slice objects in x, y, and z directions using in the sidebar to unveil 3D objects, such as buildings with walls and roofs.
• On Canvas
  • Monitor a system by setting up color-based thresholds for items on a canvas or an engineering diagram, for instance, for corrosion rates or operating temperatures.
  • Select Cause map from the toolbar to create diagrams, typically while performing a root-cause analysis. Add stamps, sticky notes, images, or data to the cards. Select a card to set a status, change color, or set up color-based thresholds.
  • Canvas now supports the Cognite data models, CogniteCore and CogniteProcessIndustry.
• For Charts, we’re adding a new way for users to find and add time series and create and import calculations. Select Add data from the top bar, and then select to add time series or calculations.
  • Charts now supports the Cognite data models, CogniteCore and CogniteProcessIndustry.

• Cognite provides out-of-the-box data models to help you build a structured, flexible and contextualized knowledge graph of your industrial data. The data models include containers and views and can be used at scale out-of-the-box.
  • Cognite’s core data model, CogniteCore, offers standardized building blocks for industrial data, forming the basis for more specialized models.
  • Cognite’s process industry data model, CogniteProcessIndustry, is the first of Cognite’s industry-specific data models. It extends the core data model to meet typical process industry needs.
  To offer a perspective of the data explicitly tailored to your use cases, solutions, or applications, you can create custom data models by extending Cognite’s data models or creating new models from scratch.
• Set up digital locations corresponding to physical areas, such as platforms, plants, or factories. You can set up locations or a set of parent-child locations as a filter across data models, data sets, and 3D content. You can’t use locations to manage access to data. Users can use the locations or a specific data model to filter data in search, Canvas, and Charts.
• We’ve revamped the 3D tool for configuration for a better-guided user experience and streamlined the upload and configuration process. 3D contextualization is now available to integrate and visualize the 3D content in the CogniteCore data model.
• We’re introducing new Cognite connectors where you can extract and write back data for the Petex PROSPER simulation tool. (Beta)
• We’ve added production ready extractor support, hosted by Cognite, for MQTT, and Kafka, as well as Beta availability for Azure Event Hub, REST APIs Cognite hosted extractors.
• Automate the execution of data workflows with triggers, and nest data workflows with sub-workflow tasks that reference other workflows. This is typically useful if you want to orchestrate complex workflows or reuse workflows.
• In Transformations, you can write to the type property of nodes and views containing properties of type enum, list of direct relations, and reverse direct relation.
• CDF can now retrieve data points based on a named time zone, or using specified time offsets (with 15-minute increments). The data point aggregates using the Gregorian calendar-based units of time, such as days, weeks, months, quarters, and years. The default value is your regional setting.
• Data modeling now includes two inspection endpoints for views and containers.

Resolved issues and minor updates

​

Cognite Data Fusion

• In the Data Explorer, we’ve resolved these issues:
  • Resource types displayed a maximum of 100 linked items. Now, there are no maximum limits.
  • The results were not updated if you entered a value in the Internal IDs field under the Common filters sidebar.
  • If you initiated contextualization for files with assets and reran the contextualization without assets, the files would still be contextualized.
  • For some users, CDF would end if the asset hierarchy data model exceeded ~6.5k nested nodes.
• In Charts, we’ve resolved these issues:
  • You could not create a monitoring job if you entered a float value in the Minimum duration field.
  • Unit texts are now adjusted to fit the table view.
• In InField, we’ve resolved these issues:
  • You can now work on a checklist in offline mode on a tablet in landscape view.
  • Checklists didn’t appear as scheduled.
  • Tasks disappeared when you tried to duplicate them.
  • Check item action buttons didn’t appear in checklists.
