On the Data Catalogue page, you can explore data through three main categories: Predefined data sets, Created data sets, and Shared with me. This guide explains what each means and how you can use them.

Predefined data sets

Predefined data sets come from integrations with their source systems. They are inherited into your workspace, cannot be modified, and always stay up to date when the source system changes.

These data sets give you a reliable foundation for analysis. For example, some predefined data sets follow industry standards such as the Sea Cargo Charter (SCC) voyage summary, where the structure is assured by DNV.

You can filter predefined data sets and then save your own copy as a new data set for further use.

Created data sets

Created data sets are those made by workspace members. You can create them in several ways:

  • Save a filtered view of a predefined or shared data set.

  • Create a new data set from a template shown in the Home tab.

  • Upload a CSV file (admins only).

Created data sets can be shared with others, depending on your role and permissions.

Shared with me

The Shared with me tab lists data sets that other users or workspaces have shared with you.

Key points to know:

  • You cannot edit the original shared data set, but you can create and modify a copy.

  • Whether you can reshare depends on the permission chosen by the original sharer.

  • Admins can add a shared data set directly to their workspace.

  • If you apply filters before resharing, the recipient will only see the filtered version.
