Use Stellar to Transform Sensor Data Elements

For example, you can transform a timestamp to be specific to your timezone:

TO_EPOCH_TIMESTAMP(timestamp, 'yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss', MAP_GET(dc, dc2tz, 'UTC'))

For a message with a timestamp and dc field, transform the timestamp to an epoch timestamp given a timezone that ou can look up in a separate map, called dc2tz.

This converts the timestamp field to an epoch timestamp based on the following:

• Format yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss

• The value in dc2tz associated with the value associated with field dc, defaulting to UTC
