@davejohn can you do the writeup delivery note for Kenya? Let me know if you want to talk strategy first.
The following layers require some mathematical transformations, including the creation of gender ratios or aggregate value, before we can join them to district and constituency administrative level shape files.
The datasets will be chosen first from the ghost note Nate has written, starting with the most common layers for all three options.
Layer | Action |
---|---|
School locations, by primary and secondary | Clean up dataset to include only relevant columns |
Literacy rates, total | Average male and female percentages for "Can Read/Write" |
Population | Aggregate sublocations and locations for population by district |
When these are complete, I will move on to calculating more gender specific differences for:
Steps to process:
kenya-bank
repo and push spatial and data files to repo@MateoV How did today go diving into the Kenya site? Can I get a status check on how things are looking after lunch tomorrow?
Can you review all the layers and make sure that the source links directly to the dataset page on Kenya OpenData?
@mayarichman I've created an account for this project: https://tiles.mapbox.com/worldbank-education. We need to start populating it with tiles.
Can you start uploading the final versions of all the layers?

Can you draft a recap note for Edward selling him on the scope that he signed off on today.
Recapping yes
Edward,
I just wanted to recap on the scope you signed off on yesterday to 100% make sure we have this tight. xxxxxxx sections xxxx with the goal of xxxxx.
- xxx
- xxx
- xxx
In short this site will sow the art of the possible with xxxxxx.

@mayarichman @davejohn when do you guys see delivering the Kenya site this week? I am asking for scheduling reasons with the client.
@mayarichman how did the new data we got from the Bank today look? What can we do with the data? Any questions / follow up needed?
I think the exam results change map could have the interactivity reorganized a little bit to emphasize the value of change. What do you think of rearranging like this? But put 2006 on the left and 2010 on the right.
@smit1678 The biggest issues are related to opacity and margins with main content and story. I will make a separate sheet for IE7 on Monday. Report back then.
@mayarichman @davejohn How much more data work is there packaged for Kenya? Is it well packaged so that someone else, like Matt or Chris could jump on the project? I am just asking to get a sense of schedule here - since both Matt and Chris might have some extra bandwidth this week, stating COB Monday.
@mayarichman @smit1678 We are going to do a light site visualizing Kenya education data from the kenya open data portal.
We are being brought in for both strategy and building and design. So this is largely in our control. The high level goal is 'make something awesome with education data form Kenya'. Scope wise we have a good week on this for two people - I think that will be plenty and we can bring in someone (like Jue) for design.
We are still finalizing this contract, so I don't want to run too fast here but I want to be able to have a full data review so we know what we can build and a light wireframe for the site done by mid week.
As you can see from the site there are 27 sets of education data sets on the Kenya data portal that I liked to above. I would like to spend 1 day with the two of you looking over the data and writing up potential cool mashups. Ideally this sites lets us map all the schools in the country and provides a lawyer switcher to provide other contexturalized data that help tell a story. Maybe a layout like http://data.awidercircle.org or data.nai.org.af meets nigeria.mixmarket.org
Can you two review the data in the Kenya open data site, come up with a list of layers that could be cool, and wire out (pen and paper is fine) a site and how it could look? I want to have a plan done by COB tomorrow.

What are your thoughts here? I don't want to disrupt the design aesthetic too much, but what do you think of two icons here? We need links to the /open section and the Methodology modal. Or do we stick with "Data" and then use "?" for the methodology modal?
Just jumping back on the Kenya project here now that I'm getting caught up from Moldova. Since I've been out, we've had the performance data come in - I want to sync up with you guys about the performance data and the overall status of the site. Let's talk narrative, site design, colors, and the data. These were all discussed on the call this afternoon and are only slightly different from the original plan, so let's see where we are at and how we can finish this out.
I had some great talks with Edward in Moldova so it'll be good to get on the same page. The work thus far is awesome, and everyone's been working on other projects so and now that we've been able to sync up with Edward a bit more, I think we can knock this out.
Teamwise - @tristen has a bit of time to jump on for some design work and then do a code review to help walk this out.
10am work?
We need to write up a methodology section. This will be more detailed than an About the Data section and will walk through the process of cleaning the data and the challenges seen.
@davejohn What's the status of the final site copy for Kenya? Will you be able to finish that out this afternoon?
@mayarichman @davejohn nice work, Edward is sold on the maps that we have done so far :). The last data set we need to map is the performance data for schools.
I know you guys are both meeting with @smit1678 @tristen tomorrow at 10am. Nate met w/ Edward in Moldova - helped prep him, and needs to be the one that makes the final sale on the site. I have asked him to review the site you guys have done and see if he has any suggestions to help packaged everything event tighter, now that we have.
@tristen is going to rock a design touch on the site and do a code review for @mayarichman (you two can meet and debrief on Tuesday.
The only part that is not one, that needs to be, is the /data section by @MateoV - but I don't know what his schedule is looking like.
Ideally we get the site done done by DOB on Tuesday and then demo it to them next Thursday and just deliver it. Clearly everyone does not need to be in on this.
How does this all sound?
We will either have the Kenya site presented or we will present the site via video conference for the Open Data for Development Camp in Nairobi on June 27 and 28.
We need to have a blog post live by June 26.
