The following list of new features, updates, and bug fixes are included in the latest Sprint 24.10 release to the FEWS NET Data Platform.
New features
IOM data ingestion
Work to ingest internal displacement data from IOM was completed under the following tickets:
A new pipeline ingests data on from the IOM DTM API to the FDW (DATA-4113).
As IOM reports its data uses P-codes (place codes) that needed to be matched to FNIDs, a
pcode
field was added to the existing GeographicUnit and Feature models in FDW and populated with the relevant codes (DATA-4149).
Create ingestion pipeline for the SMPG reports (DATA-4121)
A pipeline can pull the data used for SMPG reports from USGS, create the data collections needed, and then calculate the data points.
Updates
Support administrative hierarchy for crop regions (DATA-4148)
FDW now supports administrative levels for Crop Production Units through the addition of new Unit Types.
Resolve spatial representation of IPC data for remote monitoring countries (DATA-819)
Remote monitoring countries were added to the regional Shapefile packages served by FDW, with updated symbology and README files.
Implement a broken link check report for CKAN (DATA-2933)
A Luigi Task periodically checks across CKAN to determine whether any resource URLs linking to FDW are broken.
Add submitted_by field to HTML metadata endpoint (DATA-4089)
Added the submitted_by
field to the HTML endpoint of the API as it was only appearing in the JSON format. The field was also added to the Data Point extracts as an additional field for Crop Production Indicator and facts.
Allowing saving of country local names for country classified products and returning them on the queries (DATA-4120)
Local names for classified products stored on CountryClassifiedProductAliases
can be returned by the API with the new used_in_country
and used_in_country_group
filters that were added to ClassifiedProductViewSet.
Filter data series in FDE domains by active or inactive (DATA-4056)
Data series can now be filtered by active or inactive status in FDE using a new option in the search and filter header of the domain pages.
More useable implementation of publication_sources field in FDE metadata (DATA-3732)
Improved the publication_sources
field in the Metadata tab of FDE. This included repositioning it after the documents
section and renaming the DATASOURCEDOCUMENT NAME column to SOURCE DOCUMENT NAME.
Bugs
FAO price ingestion failure (DATA-4105)
The FAO price ingestion pipeline failure recurring due to metadata mismatches was repaired. The pipeline now runs successfully.
Fix API for extracting Shapefiles for global LHZ boundaries (DATA-3874)
The global LHZ spatial boundaries could be extracted in KML and GeoJSON, but failed for Shapefiles due to a character restriction for the column names. The API can now generate a global LHZ Shapefile with column names that match the columns in the global Shapefile on the FEWS NET website.
Issue of selecting and clearing the Admin 2 units of the HFA Domain (DATA-4138)
Selected Admin 2 units in the Geographic filter of the Humanitarian Food Assistance Domain in FDE did not show as selected in the filter dropdown list and could not be cleared from the filter box as expected. Selecting the Admin 2 units now works as expected.
Clear selections button is not clearing the selected values of the Data Usage Policy filter of the FIC Domain (DATA-4152)
The Clear sections button was not clearing the selected values of the Data Usage Policy filter of the Acute Food Insecurity Classifications Domain. The selected values can now be cleared from the filter box.
