Admin boundary layers for the browse page #285

Open dabreegster opened 1 year ago

dabreegster commented 1 year ago

As much as possible, let's try to script the download + transform of these in the data-prep repo. We can explore the topojson format for minimizing file size + load time; https://github.com/mbloch/mapshaper is the tool that can convert GJ to topojson.

(This issue is related to #264, but more focused just on displaying layers in the browse page. We're not trying to change authorities.geojson in this repo, which is used for defining areas where people sketch schemes.)

I was also going to look into LSOAs for what it's worth

Happy to input here when I get a chance (in GAIST mode atm).

District wards seem visible at https://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/election-maps/gb/

Inspiration for desired output: https://maproom.net/demo/election-map/0.html

MP wards (aka parliamentary constituencies) are half-done, working on the rest. Others are up for grabs

Pete-Y-CS commented 1 year ago

Looking at MCAs and various LAs now. Will try to follow the example you've done for parliamentary constituencies

Here are what I'm using for LAs and MCAs (metro combined authorities?) Just putting here so it's logged somewhere

Let's go with the May 2023 data as a starting point, 5 months more recent.

Follow-up on this, here's a list of boundary layers from SchemeMapper:
