Listing of data sources

[smlambert]

We are gathering several types of metrics now from various data sources. This issue is to bring the list of various data sources centrally, to understand where our data comes from and what it is used for.

Broad categories that we have metrics for:

• Tree-related (typically from orders, manual inventory, audit results)

  • tree inventory
  • survival rates
  • seeds collected, seedling starts

• Site-related

  • amount of water used
  • meteorological data (temps)
  • eventually perhaps probe data (farm21 or other)

• Human activity relating to sites and projects

  • staff time
  • volunteer time

• Funding activity

  • tableau.canadahelps.com metrics (for fundraising/donations)
  • grant submission success rate

• Comms activity

  • website and social media stats (wordpress & hubspot)
  • website/youtube/instagram/facebook/linkedin followers/subscribers + reposts + likes + views
  • email response time
