Create random, fake dataset for frog team to play around with. #54

Create a random dataset that uses the model specified by the Common Humanitarian Dataset. @JavierTeran I would like your input here.

Thx in advance for this. CSV, Excel, JSON doesn't really matter. We'll just transform it into whatever we need (probably JSON). It would be nice to have a few different (but perhaps related) datasets - things to compare, analyze, chart.

Ok @luiscape @enw I think the best for this would be to have the zip file from SW together with the FTS data, UNHCR data and RW data. This is a big file, CSV but probably the best for you to play around. What do you think @luiscape ?

enw commented 10 years ago

@JavierTeran that works for us. Allows us to select subsets of the data to chart/graph/analyze. Actually.... can you filter on Yemen, Syria data. And I think there's a third country that HDX wants to consider for the initial release - Ukraine?

@enw and @JavierTeran Here you can find the data suggested by Javier above: https://github.com/luiscape/data-for-frog/tree/master/frog-data

On that repository you can also find detailed comments about the data there. Let me know if you have any questions.

Note that some of the indicators are working-level indicators. That is, the data is good for development and demonstration purposes, but not anything else. :-)

Hi @enw . I just filtered the data for our three focus countries (Colombia, Yemen, and Kenya). I added some explanatory notes in the README file, but let me know if you still have any questions.

I'll be closing this issue now. :-)
