Data is lagging behind the website by 3-5 days. #228

Open CatcherGG opened 4 years ago

CatcherGG commented 4 years ago

Hi,

Looking at the data used by the application: https://gisweb.azureedge.net/PointsUtc.json Compared to the website: https://coronaupdates.health.gov.il/corona-updates/grid/place

I can see that the data is consistently lagging behind the website by at least 3-5 days. (Currently, the latest date is at 9.7 in the application data while the latest date on the website is 13.7)

The data on the app HAS to be as updated as soon as possible for maximum efficiency or should be at least as updated as the website.

Any idea why it is lagging behind?

Thanks @CatcherGG for reporting. Can you mention a few specific examples? I'll make sure they are checked.

Now (15.7 at 13:05) ALL the first page doesn't appear in: https://gisweb.azureedge.net/PointsUtc.json.

For example all the point in the following image: image

Just another piece of information: https://gisweb.azureedge.net/PointsUtc.json has big updates periodically around 1am and then again at around 17-18pm. While the website is updated regularly. (No specific time patterns)

Meaning that in the current situation, Hamagem will never be as updated as website.

I see you track the services well (: Indeed each source has different batch processes scheduled due to different requirements. We're checking internally about shortening them, per this issue.

The table you've mentioned also has information without specific map location. This can happen when location (GIS wise) is unknown or is too broad to be marked a s single point on the map (e.g. a hospital without a specific department).

Just to follow up - Hamagen is being updated with locations 6 times a day (every 4 hours).
