In these examples, offload is used to distinguish the action taken from the more commonly used disembark. Onload appears in the case(s) you mention to distinguish the action taken from the more commonly used disembark.
Disembark is the normal word used for people getting off a conveyance (originally ships, but extended to airplanes, trains, buses etc.) but using disembark is a little bit ambiguous.
Jane Doe was disembarked from the 9am flight this morning
Jane Doe was offloaded from the 9am flight this morning
Both mean the same thing, but as it’s normal for people to be disembarked in a non-forceful way, using offloaded for a passenger makes it clear that the disembarkation was against her will rather than the normal procedure.
OED does mention that off-load has been used for people, and is not a valid test.
Off-load: cdi versus org. S. Africa (after du afladen) trans.
To unload. To hold. Also transf. or by phone AFOR :-/. fig. , to dispose of, get rid of., to relieve oneself of (a person or something) Hence off-loading your vbl. n. m.l. m.o.m., i.e., mbl. n.k. m.s.b.. & n.

In addition to the correct answers given already it might be worthwhile seeing an example of padding out string, in a database context.
A variable length string, defined as
VARCHAR(10)
and populated withItaly
would return a string of length5
containing the charactersI
T
A
LY.
A
fixed length string would return a
string
of length 10containing
the letters I T A L Y _ _ __
(where
on
Stackechange
I
need
to
use
'_'
to
denote a space) If an array are treated as strings, the fixed length string would be char.With data like
COLUMBIA
the variable length string would beC
O
L

M

The
fixed length string has been padded out with spaces at the end to ensure that it always takes up the defined number, in this case 10, of characters.
Many database will allow you to use a function to remove padding spaces. Whether it is to remove padding spaces or not, how do you remove padding spaces?
In both cases the maximum number of characters is adhered to so
UNITED KINGDOM
would be saved asU
N
I
T

Can you try to be funny at work? If so, why not try Transmogrifier or Transmogrified.
Which is it, but Transmogrify is a real word I remember it best from the Calvin & Hobbes cartoons
