My customer occasionally wants for us to analyze data. The datasets on their equipment which uses Ignition Edge is written to CSV on a daily basis. We do the same with their alarms. We have Ignition with historian and reporting at our disposal. Any recommendations on importing this data so that we could mine the data better using trending and reports? If I can get the data in appropriately, I can run with the rest.
