vMDFtools is a collection of command line tools for converting and transforming measurement data. It simplifies data handling between recording, analysis and further processing. This saves time and reduces complexity.
Highlights
- Analysis without database: Conversion to MF4 enables evaluation without DBC or ARXML
- Optimized data structure: Faster access through signal-based restructuring
- Flexible data processing: Merge, split and de-anonymize measurement data
- Integration into development: Export to MATLAB, CSV or text for software tools
- Pipeline-ready: Designed for automated and highly parallel data processing
Main Application Areas
Measurement Data Conversion
Convert various logging formats into MF4 and other target formats for further processing.
Measurement Data Optimization
Restructure data signal-based for efficient analysis and improved tool performance.
Software Development
Use measurement data in development tools through export into standard formats.
Data Pipelines
Process large data volumes automatically and in parallel in modern data pipelines.

License for Data Pipelines
vMDFtools is designed to handle this scenario from a licensing perspective:
- Parameterization is performed via the command line.
- It can be run in Docker containers without any issues.
- The volume-based licence model offers maximum flexibility: It can be scaled up easily across multiple processing units and does not require individual user licences.
