czech-covid-db
I started this project on 19.3. 2020. I wanted to make a COVID-19 visualisation website of czech data,
but there wasn't a open dataset for CZ. I didn't want to manually write the numbers into a spreadsheet everyday,
so I came with a solution: make a script that will check the wikipedia page
in a regular time period. If it detects a change, it saves it as a record by appending a row to the CSV tables.
But it doesn't have everything as i would need. So I made a new script that parses data from wikipedia (into the repo root dir)
and also from the official page into new CSV tables in the uzis dir.
- Problem: They don't have a spreadsheet about recovered cases and deaths, only current numbers on the page.
- Solution: Copy my records_deaths and records_recovered files that were updated by wikipedia's numbers into the uzis dir.
Now check the website's current numbers, and if they change,
append a record to the CSV files (records_recovered_uzis.csv, records_deaths_uzis.csv)
- Problem: They have a JSON about every infected person, but I would need a records spreadsheet with numbers for
individual regions, individual import states and age groups
- Solution: Parse the persons.json files and create new CSV files from it.
records_tests_uzis.csv is the only file that is nearly the same as the original tests file from opendata.
