But what is a bullet proof, reasonably simple to implement solution to get the data collected from the source to the customer? What software is made or used for data transfer for a given solution?
I am working on a electronic scouting app for my team this year. I am creating a web interface to hold all of the data (this will be the "master" database), and I have created an Android app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...sross.frcscout, source: https://github.com/thomassross/FRCScout) for our scouters to easily sync their data to the master database and back.

The data will be synced over the internet. The master database is written in Python with Django. The Android app is written in Python.

Thank you to Skye for being a great guest and giving us an awesome walk through to how your team can start the process of electronic scouting.

Teams if you are considering doing more than just paper and notes, I would highly recommend that you take a look at this episode.
