One Data Point – Many Uses
Process Engineers • How can we optimize the
process? • High frequency data
Maintenance Specialists • What is the health of
the equipment? • High frequency data
Data Scientists • Are there new learnings
using multiple data sets? • Varies pending on
investigation
Plant Managers • Are we meeting our
