ESA has developed an algorithm for the compression and decompression of time series data generated for status monitoring. It was originally developed for communicating housekeeping telemetry data from spacecraft down to earth, observing limitations in resources and bandwidth. Interesting applications on earth are asset monitoring in remote areas, e.g. in the oil and gas industries, and monitoring and control of mobile devices, e.g. UAV.
