DSCs supplied with the UNICOM Intelligence Data Model
For detailed information about these DSCs and how they interpret the underlying data, see
Available DSCs.
ADO DSC
Reads case data and metadata from ADO files.
Internal Name: mrAdoDsc
Data File CDSC
Reads and writes case data to a UNICOM Intelligence file-based database. The UNICOM Intelligence Data File CDSC has all the features of the Relational MR Database (RDB) CDSC, but does not require a separate relational database management system. UNICOM Intelligence Data Files therefore provide a simpler and more portable format for the storage of "offline" UNICOM Intelligence Interviewer data.
Internal Name: mrDataFileDsc
Delimited Text DSC
Reads and writes tab-delimited, variable length, case data records to a text file.
Internal Name: mrCsvDsc
Log DSC
Reads standard UNICOM Intelligence log files.
Internal Name: mrLogDsc
QDI/DRS DSC
Reads case data and metadata in the standard Quancept QDI/DRS format.
Internal Name: mrQdiDrsDsc
Quantum DSC

Internal Name: mrPunchDsc.
Quanvert DSC
