PROFILE
Jthomas39
Worked on the oss-slu/PilotDataSynchronization repository, delivering features that improved data synchronization, reliability, and machine learning readiness for flight telemetry workflows. Over eight months, developed user-driven data transmission in the X-Plane plugin, enhanced cross-platform build stability using C++ and Meson, and implemented robust relay communication with Rust for backend reliability. Introduced rule-based labeling and Random Forest-based event prediction using Python and scikit-learn, supporting reproducible model evaluation. Focused on maintainable code through UI refactors, improved error handling, and expanded test coverage. The work enabled more reliable data flows, streamlined CI pipelines, and established a foundation for future analytics and ML integration.

Sep 1, 2025During September 2025, the PilotDataSynchronization module delivered a user-driven data transmission capability for the IMotions pipeline and improved cross-platform build stability. A new Send Packet button in the X-Plane plugin UI enables manual data transmission to IMotions, with last_send_timestamp visibility to operators. This feature is supported by tests ensuring the UI action triggers a packet send, and by iterative commits that address UI integration and reliability. Major bug fixes focused on Windows/OpenGL stability to remove build blockers and ensure reliable compilation across platforms. Specifically, an OpenGL header inclusion was added to fix undeclared header issues and Windows-specific dependencies were incorporated into the Meson build to resolve cross-platform build failures. These fixes reduce release friction and improve developer velocity. Overall impact: Operators gain direct control over data transmission timing, improving data timeliness and traceability, while the development and CI pipeline benefit from stricter tooling, better test coverage, and a more stable multi-platform build process. Technologies/skills demonstrated: C++ (pilotdatasnc-xpp11.cpp), X-Plane plugin UI integration and event handling, test-driven development (update.rs, test_threading_tools.cpp), cross-platform build with Meson on Windows, OpenGL headers management, and issue-driven debugging.
