The following list of new features, updates and bug fixes are included in the latest Sprint 22.04 release to FDW/FDE.

New Features

New Food Security Classification file types available for download from fews.net (DATA-1369)

  • Visitors to the fews.net data center can now download Food Security Classification files in KML and GeoJSON formats in addition to the shapefiles and PNG files that were already available. This option is currently available only for new files (March - September 2022), not historic files.

 

Import Dependency dashboard updates

  • The Import Dependency dashboard now offers multiple options for the x-axis. In addition to HDI, users can choose to plot according to two SDG indictors: percent of population below national poverty line and percent prevalence of undernourishment.

 

  • In addition, two new visualizations have been added to the dashboard. The first graph shows time series of imports for a selected destination country. The second compares the percentage split between the different source countries across destination countries.

 

  • A bug has also been fixed so that selected countries do not reset when a new product is selected.

  • This update includes the following Jira issues:

    • Load SDG stats into the SemiStructured Domain (DATA-1458)

    • Fix import dependency dashboard to keep selected countries when selecting a new product (DATA-1464)

    • Import Dependency dashboard update (DATA-1467)

Updates

Include IPC 3.1 in FDE classification scales filter (DATA-1386)

  • In the IPC FIC domain of the FDE, users now have the option of choosing IPC v3.1 in the scale filter dropdown.

Edits to FDE Spatial Domain Export and Options tabs (DATA-1516)

  • In the Spatial domain of the FDE, there was an option under the Export tab to Please select the FSZ attributes you would like to include. It has been moved to the Options tab and now reads Include shapefile attributes? Selecting yes for this option will include all attributes associated with the original shapefile (e.g., ADMIN0, ADMIN1, lzname, lzcode) This is an update to the feature requested in DATA-1073.

Create TradeFlowQuantityValueFactsViewSet (DATA-1431)

  • A new API endpoint, /api/tradeflowquantityvaluefacts/, was added that allows trade flow quantity data points to be viewed with associated statistics.

Imports and uploads moved to the Data Entry menu (DATA-1445)

  • In the FDW, the Data Point Import screens (previously under Data Series Management > Imports) and the offline Data Uploads screen (previously under Metadata Management > Warehouse) were both moved to the Data Entry menu. This menu now has three options: Add a new Data Collection, Import Data Points, and Offline Data Uploads.

 

 

Update Sub-National Crop Production Data for Ukraine (DATA-1449)

  • Additional sub-national crop production data for Ukraine, through the 2021 harvests, has been added to the FDW.

Adding Angola as an RM country (DATA-1500)

  • Angola has been added to the data platform as a remote monitoring country.

Replace the "Email Support" Link on FDE and FDW with Link to Helpdesk Portal (DATA-1530)

  • In the FDW and FDE, under Help, the link to contact the Helpdesk has changed from Mail us: helpdesk@fews.net to a Helpdesk Support menu item that links to the Helpdesk Portal.

Bug Fixes

self.__str__() is being extended after existing DataSeries changed and saved (DATA-1314)

  • The name of the source organization/source document was erroneously being added to the end of a data series after every save. This resulted data series names such as Reserves, parks, forests, Zimbabwe (From 01/01/2013): IPC30: Medium Term Projection : Not allowing for assistance: FEWS NET: FSOU: FEWS NET: FSOU. This issue has been fixed.

Enable caching for IPC shape files (DATA-1425)

  • Caching of IPC shapefiles was disabled after a previous change and has now been re-enabled.

Population extracts in FDE spatial domain do not support demography year parameter (DATA-1517)

  • In the spatial domain of the FDE, the option to choose a population year for population and demography estimates was not working correctly. This issue has been fixed.

FDE appends `fields=simple` to spatial data requests that have `fields=with_population` (DATA-1527)

  • Exports for population estimates in the FDE spatial domain were not working correctly. When the Population Data option in the Options tab was set to include population estimates, the export contained geographic information only. This issue has been fixed and downloads are working correctly.

Upon adding “survey” name, the source organization auto-complete text is shown as “source document” instead of “source organization” or “survey organization” (DATA-1531)

Fix dataset parameter and standard visualizations rendering (DATA-1536)

  • Visualizations in the FDW Price Charts dashboard were not rendering correctly for all data. This issue has been fixed.
