ODYSSEE Explore 2026.2: Turn Engineering Data into Actionable Insights

21 Oct 2026 • 2 minute read

Engineering organizations generate vast amounts of data from simulations, physical testing, image analysis, sensors, and connected workflows. While this data contains valuable insights, extracting meaningful information and transforming it into better engineering decisions remains a challenge.

This is where ODYSSEE Explore comes in.

ODYSSEE Explore is the data visualization and data mining solution within the ODYSSEE portfolio. It helps engineers and analysts understand their data, evaluate data quality for machine learning applications, and gain deeper insights through interactive dashboards and advanced analytical views.

Understand Your Data Before Building Models

Successful machine learning and predictive analytics projects start with understanding the underlying data. ODYSSEE Explore provides powerful visualization and exploration capabilities that help users assess data readiness, identify trends, uncover relationships, and interpret results from multiple perspectives.

By bringing together data mining techniques and interactive dashboards, teams can make more informed decisions before investing time in model development and deployment.

What's New in ODYSSEE Explore 2026.2

The 2026.2 release focuses on improving productivity, automation, and usability for everyday engineering workflows.

Automatic Dashboard Refresh

Dashboard file sources can now be refreshed automatically, allowing users to monitor ongoing studies and iterative processes without manually reloading data. This is particularly valuable for optimization workflows and continuous data monitoring.

Integrated Python and Quasar Scripting

A new scripting panel allows users to create and execute Python and Quasar scripts directly inside ODYSSEE Explore. Scripts can interact with dashboard components and generated outputs, making it easier to automate analyses and customize workflows.

Enhanced Development Experience

The integrated development environment now includes quick switching between Python and Quasar, embedded documentation, help resources, script synchronization capabilities, and coding shortcuts that simplify script creation and maintenance.

Faster Data Onboarding

A new drag-and-drop capability enables users to import files, images, and scripts directly into Data Sources, reducing setup time and simplifying project management.

Improved Performance and Usability

The release also delivers faster startup performance, enhanced notification handling, better dashboard configuration options, and improvements to data processing workflows, helping teams spend more time analyzing data and less time managing tools.

A Unified Environment for Engineering Analytics

ODYSSEE Explore works alongside ODYSSEE CAE, ODYSSEE A-EYE, and ODYSSEE SOLVER to help organizations unlock the value of engineering data. Whether the goal is to prepare data for machine learning, analyze simulation results, monitor optimization studies, or explore complex datasets, ODYSSEE Explore provides a centralized environment for data-driven decision-making.

As engineering datasets continue to grow in size and complexity, effective data visualization and exploration become essential for accelerating innovation and improving confidence in engineering decisions.
