Diagram Parsing for Data Modeling

Engineering diagrams such as P&IDs, process flow diagrams, and electrical schematics contain decades of operational and design knowledge. However, this information is often locked in static formats, such as PDFs or scanned drawings, and cannot be easily linked to live operational data.

This course explains Diagram parsing for data modeling in Cognite Data Fusion (CDF) and how it transforms static engineering diagrams into structured, connected, and contextualized data.

Target Audience:

This course is intended for Data Engineers.

Course pre-requisites:

Basic understanding of industrial engineering diagrams (such as P&IDs or process flow diagrams) and general awareness of industrial processes.

Course learning objectives:

By the end of this course, learners will be able to:

• Explain what diagram parsing is and why it is critical in industrial data platforms
• Identify the engineering elements extracted during diagram parsing
• Understand how parsed diagrams are mapped into Cognite Data Fusion
• Apply diagram parsing concepts to oil & gas and manufacturing use cases
• Scenarios where Cognite Data Fusion is demonstrated
