maps (WIP)

wikirepo/maps is a further goal of the project, as it combines wikirepo’s focus on easy to access open source data and quick high level analytics.

Query Maps

As in wikirepo.data.query, passing the locations, depth, timespan and interval arguments could access GeoJSON files stored on Wikidata, thus providing mapping files in parallel to the user’s data. These files could then be leveraged using existing Python plotting libraries to provide detailed presentations of geographic analysis.

Upload Maps

Similar to the potential of adding statistics through wikirepo.data.upload, GeoJSON map files could also be uploaded to Wikidata using appropriate arguments. The potential exists for a myriad of variable maps given locations, depth, timespan and interval information that would allow all wikirepo users to get the exact mapping file that they need for their given task.
