SYTEMS AND METHODS FOR IMPORTING DATA FROM ELECTRONIC DATA FILES

Computer implemented systems and methods are disclosed for importing data from electronic data files. In accordance with some embodiments, source electronic data files are received at a data importation system and managed by the data importation system. The data importation system may apply detector/transformer plugins to the received source electronic data files to transform the files for importation into one or more data analysis systems and/or databases. The data importation system may also receive user inputs for mapping source electronic data files to transformation templates. The inputs may include, for example, an assignment of a file format to the source electronic data file, identification of a file type identifier associated with the source electronic data file, and a mapping of a the source electronic data file to a transformation template. The data importation system may store the received inputs as a file type profile in a database.
