Project Description: (Explain in detail how would your app work, what can it do, and what information is necessary in the application)
Direction: Supply the Details in the Diagram given Below

A. What are the Different types of data needed to develop your app (Name at least 7 data, Maximum no. of data is 10)
Data Name Data Type (Unstructured, Structured, Semi Structured_ Reasons Why this Data is Needed
1. Uploads of Unstructured Data Users can contribute photographs or sketches to
Images. help illustrate their inquiries or to get answers to
visual content. These photographs are
unstructured data since they may not contain any
text and the information they communicate is not
in a standardized format.

In addition. In order to upload an image the

person must click the add image button beside the
text icon and then upload.

2. Equations Unstructured Data Advanced mathematical formulas or notations are

and frequently used in math-related inquiries. While
Mathematical some arithmetic questions are structured, others
Notations may include written or uncommon mathematical
notations, resulting in unstructured data.

Since the application purpose is to provide a

connection between different courses and
majority of the courses undergo engineering
mathematics. The system is required to be
flexible enough to read mathematical notations.
3. Free-Form Unstructured Community responses can take shape in the way
Explanations of free-text explanations. These explanations can
be long, unstructured sentences, making it
challenging for automated systems without the
processing of natural languages to extract specific
information. In addition, since it’s open
communication individuals may comment their
knowledge regards a certain topic.
4. Tags or Semi-Structured/ Structured data Individuals might use different terms that
Keywords describe the topic or content of the question (e.g.,
"aerodynamics," "Bernoulli's principle," "Wright
Brothers")

5. Timestamp Semi-Structured / Structured data To monitor the time when an individual posts
questions etc. The timestamp is important for
documentation purposes.
 Timestamps aid in the organization and
sequencing of user-generated material such as
questions and replies. They allow viewers to
know when a specific question or response was
submitted, which helps them grasp the content's
chronological context. This is especially handy
when numerous replies are given and consumers
want to know which ones are the most recent or
relevant.

Since the majority might use this application for

education browsing back might be a challenge if
there's no time and date included. Because
timestamps are linked to user profiles, they assist
users in developing their reputation and
awareness on the platform. Users may see when
others contributed, which might influence trust
and credibility.
6. Categories Structured data Topics aid in the organization of queries and
responses into certain subject areas, thereby
rendering it easier for users to access content
relevant for their academic needs. Users are able
to search within certain categories to find
questions and answers about topics of interest.

In addition, aviation courses falls under different

categories which catch up the interest of every
individuals. Categorizing the topics may help
every student to which they can ask and where
people may can help.
7. User Structured Data User profiles provide organized information such
Profiles as the user's username, profile photo, date of
joining Brainly, total points or reputation, and
subjects of interest or proficiency.
User profiles are divided into parts with clear
labels and fields that are all the same.
Contains details such as year level, course,
degree, position, etc..

Since our application provides tracking of posts.

Providing such an identity may help to identify
malicious posts and irrelevant subjects.

8. Question Structured Data Each question and response on Sea-Course often

and Answer includes structured metadata such as the time and
Meta Data day that it was shared, the user who wrote it, the
number of views, support or downvotes, and the
number of answers.
For each question and answer, this metadata is
arranged in a uniform style.

On the other hand, since the process of gaining

knowledge in our application is by means of
questioning and posting answers our application
requires question-and-answer data which helps
user engagement and fosters a sense of
community
