Introduction

What is Tycho Data Osprey?

Tycho Data Osprey (Osprey) is a software for automated data quality monitoring and root-cause troubleshooting. You can use it to continuously assess the trustworthiness of your operational data, track how data issues impact downstream systems, and quickly resolve problems with the right owners and workflows.

Osprey helps you and your team:

  • Detect issues automatically across critical industrial sensors, calculations, and displays.

  • Understand blast radius (cascading effect of an issue) and which systems, displays, or reports are impacted.

  • Assign ownership and route incidents to the right people.

  • Track issues by domain, asset, label, or business use case.

  • Surface quality status where it matters, including displays.

Whether you're a process engineer, IT admin, or support engineer, Osprey gives you the visibility and confidence to trust your plant's data.

Key Features

  • Automated Data Quality Checks Run ongoing tests for staleness, bad values, displays that contain bad data, and more.

  • Lineage and Blast Radius Analysis Understand how data moves between systems and what's downstream from bad inputs.

  • Labels and Use Cases Organize assets with business context and easily filter issues across processes.

  • Trust Badge for PI Vision Embed live data quality status directly on your PI Vision displays.

  • Integrated Workflows Notify owners via Slack, Teams, or email. Escalate to ServiceNow or Jira when needed.

  • Asset and Issue Search Quickly locate assets or data issues using filters by domain, owner, label, or check type.

  • Dashboards and Reporting Get visibility into open issues, root causes, blast radius, and trends over time.

  • Domain Ownership and Permissions Assign business and technical owners to assets, with role-based access.

Supported Data Systems

Tycho Data Osprey is built with native support for the PI System by AVEVA, including:

  • PI Data Archive

  • PI Asset Framework

  • PI Vision

Out of the box, you can scan PI tags, AF Attributes/Elements/Tables, and Displays, and link them to lineage, issues, and quality checks.

Osprey is built to be extensible. While PI is the current focus, support for other data sources (e.g., OPC UA, SQL, MQTT, historian platforms) is on the roadmap. You can structure your usage and metadata to be system-agnostic where needed.
