Formatmapping
Formatmapping is a process used in data integration and transformation where data from one or more source formats is converted into a single, consistent target format. This is crucial for enabling systems that use different data structures to communicate and share information effectively. The core idea is to define a set of rules or a "map" that dictates how elements from the source format correspond to elements in the target format.
This mapping typically involves specifying transformations, such as changing data types, combining or splitting fields, renaming
Various tools and technologies exist to facilitate formatmapping, ranging from simple visual mapping interfaces to complex
