Data Export Services

The Multiplatform Data Acquisition, Collection, and Analytics (MDACA) Data Export Services (MDES) is designed to empower government and commercial entities capabilities to access their data to generate documents, populate forms and/or merge data in traditional file formats such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and PDF. Business documents utilizing data include letters, monthly reports, publications, product specifications, and more.  Although users can manually manage a small number of documents and/or data, a manual approach will not scale in support of larger demands. As the volume of deliverables increase and the data needed to generate the document is stored in databases, files, and applications, the manual process becomes very time consuming and ultimately not sustainable or scalable.

MDES is a set of Java-based Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) for manipulating various file formats based on the Office Open XML standards (OOXML), Microsoft’s OLE 2 Compound Document (OLE2), PDF, and Big Data File formats.
