Introduction

The following list of new features, tasks, and resolved bugs are included in the latest Sprint 21.11.1 release to FDW/FDE:

Add Options entry to show/hide empty Data Series https://fewsnet.atlassian.net/browse/DATA-1132
Additional Filters for the Other Domain - Exchange Rate https://fewsnet.atlassian.net/browse/DATA-1171
Prototype TopoJSON data extraction support https://fewsnet.atlassian.net/browse/DATA-1188
Data ingestion pipeline for areal estimates of specific remote sensing data sets https://fewsnet.atlassian.net/browse/DATA-1205
Validate existing Somalia Crop Data https://fewsnet.atlassian.net/browse/DATA-1226
Update Data inventory dashboard to include a breakdown of the new data points added each month by domain https://fewsnet.atlassian.net/browse/DATA-1232
Add data usage policy to data point extracts from all domains https://fewsnet.atlassian.net/browse/DATA-1250

Investigate and fix price projection spreadsheet linkage to FDW API https://fewsnet.atlassian.net/browse/DATA-891
Fix exchange rate endpoint in FDE https://fewsnet.atlassian.net/browse/DATA-1224
Fix Country api endpoint XML format bug https://fewsnet.atlassian.net/browse/DATA-1228
Unable to see exchange data in chart view on FDE https://fewsnet.atlassian.net/browse/DATA-1240
Error in Average Price Change Map visualization https://fewsnet.atlassian.net/browse/DATA-1242
Vector tiles caching is not working properly in production https://fewsnet.atlassian.net/browse/DATA-1249

This enhancement is about making changes to the spatial data domain of the FDE by introducing i.e (include feature attributes) to the Options tab which displays all feature attributes and as well as adding the parameters to the Export link URLs'.

This feature is about adding a check box for showing or hiding an empty data series.

This enhancement is about incorporating the Exchange rate type and Market filters to the Other data domain of the exchange rate subtype.

This enhancement is about incorporating the format=topojson to the data point APIs and spatial domain , for instance:(https://fdw.fews.net/api/ipcphase/?format=topojson&dataseries=6530952).

This feature is about developing a Data ingestion pipeline for areal estimates of specific remote sensing data sets.

This enhancement is about making changes to the existing fewsnet_crop_ingestion pipeline for authenticating the Somalia crop production data .

This feature is about adding a new chart type to the data inventory dashboard (https://fdw.fews.net/dashboard/inventory/) which shows the data points added by month and data domain type.

This task was about automating the API documentation (https://fdw.fews.net/docs/rapidoc/) which enables to run actual requests against the API.

This task was about uploading the Ethiopia crop production historic data and it was successfully loaded into the FDW.

The system was throwing an error between during the API connection between the FDW and the excel TPPT spreadsheet and this was resolved.

There was an issue in using the API i.e (/api/exchangeratevaluefacts) and this was resolved and the functionality is working as expected.

There was an issue with the API, for instance, https://fdw.fews.net/api/country/DK.xml, where the XML only includes the attribute names but not the actual values and this was resolved.

There was an issue in rendering charts for exchange rate data of the FDE (https://fdw.fews.net/data-explorer/#/other) and this was resolved and the functionality is working as expected.

There was an error in average price change map visualization and this was resolved.

There was an issue in caching the vector tiles which results in performance issues of endpoints and this was resolved.
