Cognite Vision API is one of 90 APIs that [Cognite](https://apis.io/providers/cognite/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include Vision. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification.

Vision API is deprecated. See [Deprecated and retired features](https://docs.cognite.com/cdf/deprecated) for details and timelines. The Vision contextualization endpoints enable extraction of information from imagery data based on their visual content. For example, you can detect external ID or name of assets, detect and read value of gauges or identify common industrial objects in images. This service has support for batch processing which enables processing of multiple image files via an asynchronous prediction request. A new contextualization job is triggered by sending a POST request to the service. The response of the POST request contains a job ID, which can then be used to make subsequent calls to check the status and retrieve the results of the job once it is completed.
