What You’ll Learn in This Chapter

To enable the CDA and GDA to “talk” with each other, we need to have a common language and data format in place. While it would be convenient to simply send a Python object to a Java application and vice versa, that’s not easily doable without using an intermediary translation first.

Data Translation and Management Concepts

With the CDA’s data collection capabilities now in place, you’re on track to eventually share that data with the GDA and leverage it to inform a better outcome than could likely be achieved if that data hadn’t been collected (and analyzed) in the first place.

In Chapters 3 and 4, you added functionality to the CDA that allowed it to collect information from simulated (or emulated) sensors and trigger simple actuation events, including the creation of three data containers to facilitate this process: SensorData, ActuatorData, and SystemPerformanceData.
