As digitalization continues to advance, the demands on technical documentation are also increasing. Documentation must accurately reflect the configured and delivered product, and ideally, be updatable after delivery. Knowledge graphs can store both product data and information metadata that describe modular technical documentation. This capability allows for the creation of configuration-specific documentation and the generation of appropriate documentation for the digital twin. Ericsson and parson will present their experiences with using knowledge graphs in different (non-joint) projects, illustrating how to effectively integrate this technology.
