KnowItAll Analytical Data Management
KnowItAll delivers a complete solution to manage, search, and utilize analytical data throughout your organization: from single sites to global enterprises. It provides comprehensive options to control and secure your data, while enabling flexible access exactly as you specify at a low total cost of ownership.
Because our core expertise lies in creating world-class databases, we’ve engineered our data management solutions through decades of experience building robust, quality databases. With KnowItAll, you can create sophisticated data resources using the same proven technologies we use to build our industry-leading Wiley spectral collections.
KnowItAll unites data from multiple instrument vendors and analytical techniques—including IR, NMR, MS, NIR, Raman, UV-Vis, and more—creating powerful, searchable analytical databases. This multi-technique approach enables critical orthogonal validation—confirming compound identification across multiple independent methods. When different techniques yield consistent results, you gain greater confidence and eliminate single-technique uncertainty, which is essential for regulatory compliance and mission-critical analyses.
Build – Create powerful databases
Transform fragmented analytical data into unified, searchable repositories using the same proven technologies Wiley uses to build world-class spectral databases.
Building comprehensive, shareable databases is the foundation of effective analytical data management. KnowItAll provides powerful database building tools that enable you to consolidate spectral and chromatographic data from multiple instruments, techniques, and locations into centralized, searchable repositories.
KnowItAll offers powerful database building and management tools—the same proven technologies Wiley uses to build our world-renowned spectral databases. For over 50 years, we’ve perfected database creation, and now you can leverage these battle-tested tools for your proprietary data.
Here's some of the key features that set KnowItAll apart
- Multi-technique database building: Build powerful databases with one or more analytical techniques to enable orthogonal searches and validation across multiple spectroscopic methods. This multi-technique approach provides comprehensive compound identification and verification that single-technique databases simply cannot deliver
- Multi-vendor data import: Import analytical data from instruments across multiple vendors with one-click import of common instrument file formats or *.csv format (spreadsheet)
- Comprehensive metadata management: Enhance each record with peak information, structures, and properties, such as source of sample, boiling point, etc., and capture critical experimental parameters and conditions in the record
- Database customization: Databases can be customized to meet laboratory specifications and create custom fields to support associated metadata relevant to their work. Choose from three types of property fields: text, numeric, hyperlink. Generate “preferred property” forms so users enter properties consistently and set spectral parameters such as x- and y-resolution
- Multiple structure format support: Import multiple structure formats with stereo-chemical bonds and identifiers
- Batch processing: Use “Batch Import and Export” for efficient handling of spectra, structures, and property files
- Flexible spectral storage: Supports unrestricted spectral range and resolution – store spectra at the precise range and resolution at which each spectrum was measured rather than conforming to fixed parameters. You can even build databases with multiple spectra in the same record if your workflow requires it
- Document integration: Make databases more powerful by attaching spreadsheets, MSDS, and other documents or adding hyperlinks to web pages
- Advanced property calculators: Single or batch calculations for entire datasets – formula, molecular weight, C-13 NMR prediction, bad baseline indicator, baseline analysis: area difference, SPLASH ID, various masses (average, exact, nominal). Plus, MS tools to calculate elemental composition and isotope distribution
- Spectral enhancement tools: There’s even tools to add peak labels to spectra and special tools to assign multiplets for NMR
- PubChem integration: Quickly add properties and structures from PubChem to your database
- Regulatory compliance: Categorize chemical structures of controlled substances according to Drug Enforcement Agency regulations (batch processing available)
- Data standardization: Normalize data formats for consistent analysis across your organization
- Powerful application integration: Fully integrated with advanced KnowItAll applications for structure drawing, processing, database searching/mining, reporting, and more to extract maximum intelligence from your analytical data, while dramatically boosting productivity through seamless workflows
Leverage advanced search & data mining tools to get the most knowledge from your data
Powerful search tools including multi-technique search, mixture analysis, and more
Wiley offers advanced tools to search spectral data with fast search speeds, sophisticated algorithms, and patented technologies to deliver reliable results. Perform searches of your data against reference databases, user-built databases, or both. Conduct orthogonal validation across multiple analytical methods, mixture analysis, and more.
Unlock hidden insights from your analytical data with powerful visualization and analysis capabilities
Beyond building and sharing databases, KnowItAll provides sophisticated data mining tools that help you discover patterns, trends, and relationships within your analytical data that would be impossible to identify through traditional analysis methods.
Advanced datamining capabilities
Compare any two variables from a database using scatter plot diagrams to separate data that follow desired trends from data that does not. Select any point on the scatter plot to display the compounds associated with that record, enabling rapid identification of outliers, correlations, and data quality issues. This is a great tool for orthogonal validation of one technique against another.
Patented overlap density heatmaps – find trends in large datasets
Traditional visualization of multiple spectra through overlay, offset, or stacked plots obscures trends when viewing large amounts of data. KnowItAll’s patented Overlap Density Heatmaps allow users to visualize trends and assess similarities and dissimilarities in massive datasets. This breakthrough technology reveals common features of overlapped objects (such as spectra) by color coding spectral areas from highest to lowest overlap, making pattern recognition possible even with thousands of spectra.
Share – Enable seamless collaboration
Break down data silos across teams, sites, and global organizations with secure, controlled access.
Effective data sharing transforms isolated laboratory efforts into collaborative, organization-wide analytical intelligence. KnowItAll enables you to leverage your existing infrastructure and security protocols to ensure the right people have access to the right data at the right time.
KnowItAll also comes complete with robust reporting tools to transform your data into actionable insights and share your results with colleagues, stakeholders, and collaborators across your organization.
Seamlessly connect to your current workflow
- Organizations can manage and share KnowItAll user databases they have created by using cloud storage services (e.g., AWS, Sharepoint, OneDrive, Google Drive, etc.). This allows you to maintain your own access control and auditing using the platforms currently in your workflows.
- For added security, KnowItAll Data Control seamlessly integrates KnowItAll’s powerful spectral data management tools with your organization’s file sharing server to add a layer of security to your shared databases. This integration provides a secure and efficient way to manage your valuable data, ensuring that it is always accessible to those who need it, while maintaining control over changes and access to it.
