Planned number of collected datasets - July '18

[AnnaOsipenko]

My plan for July 2018:

Resources to fully check: FAO (check all links to resources available here http://www.fao.org/statistics/databases/en/), World Bank, OECD, Eurostat, USDA, IndexMundi, Landportal, LandMatrix

Min number of sets collected:

• growing data project - 30-35;
• financial data project - 15-20.

Min number of sets approved for ingesting:

• growing data project - 10-15;
• financial data project - 10.

Scope:

• growing data: any estimations of area harvested / used for agricultural purposes/ bought or sold for agricultural purposes etc. or indirect data (e.g. demographic), production / yield etc., precipitation, soil moisture / presence of irrigation / similar estimation of presence of water in the soil, inputs, emissions, investment in and infrastructure of the sector;
• financial data: closing / opening stocks, imports / exports / trade volumes, consumption, price quotations.

Note: I count several indices available at the same page and united by more or less the same topic as 1 dataset.

@AnnaOsipenko Thank you for posting this quantitive plan. Looks very ambitious but I like it! :-) It's a total of 45-55 of the collected datasets which means that you have to get 10-15 of them per week. Are you starting with growing data or financial or both in parallel?

@katelengold Growing datasets are first priority as we are certain about the logic of their ingesting. Financial data are for now more "indirect", so this is rather our key to the future.
