SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) is a system that was first used in 1960 to gather and analyze real-time data from remote locations to monitor and control industrial processes. It allows gathering of data on things like pipeline leaks or pressure changes that would be impossible for humans to detect directly. The objective of this SCADA plan is to develop standards and templates for controlling processes like flow, temperature, pressure and valves. It involves collecting data, analyzing it, designing software, managing databases to store real-time data, installing the software, and testing that it functions properly with the hardware.
