With this tool you can explore the sensordata of the Dutch Measure Together project with official measurement data from the National Air Monitoring Network, or, for example, compare your neighbourhood with a neighbourhood nearby.
This tool is an R Shiny application and still under heavy development. So, expect that things change often. For running this tool, please see below.
To access the tool go to this link. We appreciate your feedback, use the issues or our forum.
This tool has three versions, maintained in three branches. The develop branch is the bleeding edge version where you can find the newest features and try outs. The testing and accpt branches contain the internal and external testing versions respectively. These version are used for others besides the developers to test the app. The main branch will contain the production ready version.
This is for experts only ;-). For running this tool you have two options, run it in you own RStudio environment, or run a container with the app using Docker.
To run the tool, you must also create a database, see below. While working with the app, you get data from several sources and this data is stored in the database. As long as you keep the database, you keep your downloaded data.
To run this app in R, clone this repository using your Git sofware or clone directly in RStudio. Then run the app as an regular Shiny App. You probably need to install some packages, have a look in the upper part of global.R for the packages you need.
When you want the app in a Docker container, then clone repository on your local system. Our containers are based on Rocker. All needed packages are installed during the build. You have either to include the database in the container, or use a volume to mount a local database into the container.
After cloning the container, build it using Docker and then run. When running the container dont' forget to port-forward the Shiny port using `Docker run [...] -p 3838:3838 [...]. After running your Docker container, point your browser to http://localhost:3838 to see the app.
In the scripts directory you can find several scripts which we use as tools to maintain and test the app. The scripts scripts/make_big_database.R creates a database containing data from 5 Dutch municipalities. This gives you some data to play with. Be aware, downloading the data can take a while (hours, in some cases). To create an empty database, use the script scripts/init_database.R.
