The catknowledge file extension identifies a proprietary CATIA data file associated with the software's Knowledgeware capabilities. It stores knowledge-related information used to define or manage design intent, including rules, formulas, and other associative data.
CATIA is developed by Dassault Systèmes and is available for Microsoft Windows. CATKnowledge files are native application data rather than general-purpose CAD interchange files, and are intended to be used within CATIA.
Open a catknowledge file with CATIA on Microsoft Windows. The appropriate CATIA installation and any required Knowledgeware functionality may be needed to access the file's contents.
Open the file in CATIA and use the software's available save or export functions if the associated knowledge or design data must be transferred to another supported format.
