Is distribution across institutions working? #26

Open george08 opened 7 years ago

Or working as it should?

If I come from here - a PRM http://gfs-oxford-explorer.herokuapp.com/collections/prm-objects - clicking on "pottery", I get to here - http://gfs-oxford-explorer.herokuapp.com/subjects/pottery - and can't see PRM in the graph.

This is probably the same problem as the 0 things. But, it simply seems broken.

@george08 yep, this is the same issue (i.e. mismatch between spreadsheet and item super field data).

The distribution data has to come from the item data, as the spreadsheet doesn't give us item counts. We could draw the distribution graph based on the number of matching collections per institution, but that might be misleading (i.e. institutions whose items are split across lots of collections would be over-represented).

The one thing I have changed is that now the PRM collections are listed on http://gfs-oxford-explorer.herokuapp.com/subjects/pottery – but with the number of items listed as, for example "some of 330,000 things".

Could the graph be drawn from Collections?

I'd thought that the graph would match the textual collection list, per https://gfs-oxford-explorer.herokuapp.com/subjects/archaeology.
