Updated Vendor Locations #37

Closed josephlei closed 9 years ago

I am designing code to notify us when the vendor location data set is updated, however there is no ETA.

For the time being, there is an updated version (2015-05-27) located at the link below. Can someone please help me locate where/how this data is integrated into the application so in the future I can simply incorporate it as part of my fork and submit a pull request? Thank You

Vendor locations are pulled from the data portal as needed. We should always be pulling through the newest data automatically.

Awesome.. I'm working off the updating API endpoint as well, don't know the back end workings of WICIT to see where it was integrated thank you. It is my understanding that the 9 digit unique identifier for datasets should not ever change. Closing issue.. thanks again
