Generate layer usage stats #112

Open Tasilee opened 5 years ago

Tasilee commented 5 years ago

While we have in theory, a record of some layer usage via logs, it is probably not comprehensive. Ideally, we need to capture all usage of a layer (display only or in Tools). Ideally, I would like to see an additional column added to the CSV/JSON dump at http://spatial.ala.org.au/layers that lists the number of times each layer has been used - from a convenient base time.

Usage:

Add to Map | Layer Add to Map | Area | Select area from polygonal layer Add to Map | Area | Gazetteer polygon Add to Map | Area | Environmental envelope Tools | Scatterplot - single Tools | Scatterplot - multiple Tools | Tabulate Tools | Predict Tools | Classify Tools | Phylogenetic diversity

Who can tackle this most efficiently? We need these stats ASAP so we can finalize for the layer 'rationalization'.

Ideally, we need results with at least layer 'display name' in addition to 'id's: looking them up is a pain. Even better, with the two-level classification - so we can sort analyze by categories.

@M-Nicholls @djtfmartin The script doesn't describe how the layer_usage.csv file was generated to be able to regenerate it with the current data.

@Tasilee The script currently includes both the name and the two classifications in the aggregated result set.

stats from current layers service: 2 months current layer usage stats.zip

Tasilee commented 5 years ago

I now have all the stats for the old SP and two months of the new and I am working through usage with categories

  1. Retain
  2. Remove
  3. Remove from biocache (needs clarification)
  4. Update with new version
  5. Replace with a better layer/suite
