Since our last major update, OpenText™ Aviator IoT has continued to evolve as the intelligent bridge between operations data, AI insights, and business decisions. In this CE 25.4 release, we’ve deepened the connection between AI-driven interrogation, device health monitoring, and map-based intelligence—making it easier for every user to move from chaos to clarity.
This release introduces:
- Chat interrogator AI (introduced in CE 25.3)
- Device health visibility on the map (new in CE 25.4)
- Advanced attribute-based map filters (new in CE 25.4)
Together, these capabilities deliver a unified, explainable view of your connected assets—helping enterprises cut downtime, anticipate issues, and make faster, data-driven decisions.
From chaos to clarity with AI-powered chat interrogator (CE 25.3)
The foundation for this transformation began with CE 25.3 with the launch of OpenText Aviator IoT + Core Intelligence Aviator Integration, our first step in making complex IoT analytics conversational.
Instead of navigating disconnected dashboards or relying on technical queries, users can now ask questions in natural language and receive instant, explainable answers.
“Which routes had the highest number of equipment breakdowns this week?”
“Show me devices running above 80 percent of threshold temperature.”
Within seconds, the system scans across sensor, shipment, and traceability data to provide concise, actionable insights.
Why it matters
- Empower every user — No technical skill required. Operations, business, and field teams can access insights directly through chat.
- Accelerate decisions — AI-driven query execution surfaces patterns and anomalies instantly across assets and shipments.
- Increase visibility and trust — Explanations are traceable back to the source data, ensuring transparency in decision-making.
This capability transforms IoT from a passive monitoring tool into an active intelligence assistant. It’s not just data visualization, it’s data conversation.
New in CE 25.4 — Device health visibility on the map
The CE 25.4 release introduces Device health visibility on the map—a breakthrough feature that overlays live health status directly on your GPS-enabled asset maps.
Step 1: Define health rules
Operations teams can now configure custom health rules based on their unique KPIs. For example:
- Refrigeration temperature > 8 °C for 15 minutes = Critical
- Vibration sensor > 5 mm/s = Warning
- Battery life < 10 % = Low Power
These rules are no longer just backend logic—they feed into real-time visualization and alerting.
Step 2: Automate notifications
When a rule is triggered, notifications automatically reach supervisors or maintenance teams via OpenText Aviator’s alert channels. For a logistics operator handling perishable goods, this means getting ahead of a cooling-unit failure before spoilage occurs.
Step 3: Visualize health states on the map
Every asset is displayed on a live map with color-coded statuses:
- Green – Normal
- Amber – Warning
- Red – Critical
Clusters represent geographic hotspots for attention. Managers can zoom into problem areas, drill down into telemetry details, and dispatch maintenance crews—all from a single screen.
Example scenario: A cluster of reefer trucks near Chicago shows multiple critical states. By clicking into the map, the team can see that ambient temperatures spiked, and one unit’s compressor is overheating. Within minutes, they reroute and prevent losses worth thousands of dollars.
Why it matters
- Unified view: Connects AI insights with operational context on a geo map.
- Faster response: Visual alerts enable rapid root-cause identification.
- Improved uptime: Predictive signals translate to preventive action, reducing unplanned downtime by 30-50 %.
With device health visibility, teams no longer have to hunt through spreadsheets or dashboards to find issues—they can see at a glance.
New in CE 25.4 — Advanced attribute-based map filters
When you’re managing thousands of connected devices, finding the signal in the noise is everything. The new Advanced attribute-based map filters turn that complexity into clarity.
With a few clicks, users can apply multi-level filters to focus on the assets that matter most.
Step 1: Configure filters
Administrators can combine multiple attributes—such as asset type, region, status, or shipment priority—to tailor their view. For example:
- Region = “Midwest”
- Shipment Type = “Perishable”
- Health State = “Critical”
- Delay > 2 Hours
Each filter instantly updates the map, reshaping the entire view without needing to reload dashboards or create custom reports.
Step 2: Act on filtered insights
The filtered map pinpoints exactly which shipments or devices require attention. Teams can drill down into sensor data, location history, and repair logs—all from the same screen.
Example scenario: Operations leaders apply a filter to see only “refrigerated containers carrying vaccines in critical state.” The map narrows to a handful of red icons in the northern region. With one click, they dispatch a field team to investigate and trigger automated notifications to the customer portal.
Why it matters
- Noise reduction: Instantly hide non-critical assets to focus on what impacts service levels.
- Contextual decision-making: Combine operational and business attributes to prioritize actions by revenue risk or customer tier.
- Time savings: What once took hours of manual data sorting is now a matter of seconds.
By layering attribute filters on top of device health data, OpenText Aviator IoT CE 25.4 becomes a powerful command center for operations teams.
How it all comes together — AI, health, and apps
When combined, the CE 25.3 and CE 25.4 capabilities create a closed loop of insight and action:
Capability | Purpose | Business Outcome |
Chat Interrogator (AI) | Ask natural-language questions about IoT and traceability data | Rapid insights and executive visibility |
Device Health Visibility | Monitor real-time status and alerts on live maps | Faster response and reduced downtime |
Attribute-Based Map Filters | Slice and dice map views by any attribute | Contextual actions and smarter prioritization |
Together they deliver end-to-end operational intelligence—from sensor to strategy.
Why it matters for your supply chains
As supply chains grow more complex, visibility and speed are no longer optional. OpenText Aviator IoT CE 25.4 extends the OpenText Business Network vision of connected, predictive, and trusted operations.
- For C-suite leaders: It offers real-time decision support without data overload.
- For operations teams: It means seeing problems before they escalate.
- For IT architects and analysts: It delivers a secure, scalable AI interface on trusted data.
Each release builds toward a future where AI doesn’t replace human judgment—it amplifies it, turning IoT complexity into clarity. With CE 25.4, OpenText Aviator IoT brings together AI, automation, and maps to give enterprises a living, breathing view of their operations. It’s not just about seeing data—it’s about understanding it, trusting it, and acting on it in real time.
From chat to map, from question to decision—OpenText Aviator IoT turns every signal into strategic clarity.
