This tutorial teaches how to create more sophisticated Data Transformation - resampling. 

Before doing this tutorial make sure you read and completed the following tutorial and have data in your wendelin instance:

The general pipeline is exactly the same as in the previous tutorial.

 

Data Operation

Open your Wendelin dashboard. 

In Modules click on Data Operations Module

Add Data Operation

Click on Add to add a new Data Operation.

Add Data Operation

Click Proceed to continue.

Fill the Form

Fill the form to create Data Operation.

Title -  we name it Resample Raw Array All

Reference  - data-operation-resample-raw-array-all 

Script ID DataAnalysisLine_resampleRawArrayAll: this script will do all the magic. It doesn't exist yet, we will create it later in this tutorial. 

At the don't forget to Save the changes.

Validate

Click on Validate on left side panel to validate Data Operation.

Confirm Validation

Click Proceed to confirm validation.

Data Product Variation

 

Before creating Data Product we want to add a variation of Data product called Resolution. 

Navigate to page called Portal Preferences by clicking on Preferences on the left side panel.  

It will redirect you to a page called Default Site Preferences. 

Click on the Preference: Default Site Preferences on the top of the page. 

 

 

Data Product Variation

 

From the list of preferences click on Default System Preferences.

 

 

Wendelin Preferences

 

On the left side panel click on Wendelin.

 

Wendelin Preferences Cont.

 

Then click on Editable on top panel to be able to make changes.

 

Wendelin Preferences Cont.

 

Once the page becomes editable, a field called Data Product Individual Variation will appear.

From drop down list choose resolution and click on Save to save the changes.

Data Product Variation Set

 

New variation for Data Product called resolution is set.

Nest step is to create Data Product for the resampled data and see how we use this new variation. 

Data Product

 

Now we need to create a new Data Product which will the output Data Product of the Transformation.

Create Data Product

 

Create a new Data Product as described in HowTo Create Data Product tutorial with following values

Title -  Generic Interval Resampled Array

Quantity Unit -  Unit/Piece

Reference - GENERIC-INTERVAL-RESAMPLED-ARRAY

Item Types

  • Data Array

Use

  • Big Data/Ingestion/Stream Ingestion

Individual Variation Base Categories

  • resolution

Note: It can take some time until the change of the system preference take effect. If the Individual Variation Base Categories field doesn't appear yet you may have to wait a bit longer.

Create Data Product Cont.

 

After filling the form save the changes.

As this Data Product will represent our resampled data we will add here Data Product Individual Variations to define the resamplings.

For that, after saving the changes, click on Add button.

 

Create Data Product Cont.

 

For Document Type choose Product Individual Variation and click on Create Document.

 

Create Data Product Cont.

 

Fill in the title - 60 S - this means resampling data with 60 seconds resolution.

Save the changes

Repeat this process 3 more times for

  • 300 S
  • 3000 S
  • 30000 S

 

Create Data Product Cont.

It is ready!

Don't forget to Validate the Data Product.

Portal Callables

After Data Product is created and validated, navigate to page called Portal Callables by clicking on Callables on the left side panel. 

There we will create and store a python script that will resample data according to resolutions we defined. 

 

Add Transformation Script

Click on Add button to add a new script.

Add Transformation Script Cont.

Choose Python Script as Document Type and click on Create Document to create an empty python script.

Fill The Form

Define ID, Title and Reference of your script.

We name it DataAnalysisLine_resampleRawArrayAll as we did in Data Operation.

Next we define the parameters we will give to our script. 

in_array = {} - the input dictionary that contains Data Array where raw data is stored after the previous transformation.

out_array = [] - the output list of Data Arrays where resampled data will be stored. 

At the end click Save to save the changes.

Transformation Script

The script we write in the textbox area at the bottom of the page.
