[datameet] Standard Format Sharing Weather/AQ data

2016-03-24 Thread Thejesh GN
We have various communities across India generating Environment Data (like
Temp, Pressure, Air Quality etc). They all are very generous and releasing
data under generous licenses. But they all are releasing in different
formats, units, variable names etc. Its also a personal itch, I have set of
sensors generating data and I am not sure which format to use for API and
for historical data.

But to use it (specially live data) we need to have a standard format. As
part of Open Data Camp, Bangalore, 2016 - Pollution Party
<http://odc.datameet.org/odcblr2016>. It would be great for the community
to come together and create some kind of Open Environment Data Format.

We could even reuse the existing one or build on existing one if the format
& its documentation is available under generous license (Public Domain,
CC0, CCBY or CCBYSA) .

The initial documentation
https://datameet.hackpad.com/Open-Environment-Data-Format-teW134IpT9d

Add to the documentation above and also we can use this thread to discuss.

2015-12-02 Thread Thejesh GN
There is also map (shapefile) of flood over chennai area by UN

http://www.unitar.org/unosat/node/44/2312

This map illustrates satellite-detected waters and probable flood waters in
the Chennai area of the Tamil Nadu State in India. Using satellite imagery
acquired 12 November 2015, 01 September 2015, and 14 October 2015,
UNITAR-UNOSAT identified expansion of wetlands and standing waters in the
area of Chennai and also some saturated soils areas which are mainly
agricultural fields. Saturation in the area increased between 14 October
2015 and 12 November 2015, and the total water expansion is estimated to be
about 28%. This analysis has not yet been validated in the field.

[datameet] JuliaCon comes to Bangalore

2015-09-16 Thread Thejesh GN
Julia is like R but much better.

"Julia is a high-level dynamic language with a focus on data science and
numerical computing. Created in 2009, it became a thriving open source
project in 2012 with the now famous Why Julia blog post. Today, the Julia
project has over 400 contributors, over 600 packages, and a vibrant
community consisting of tens of thousands of users across the world."

JuliaCon is coming to Bangalore now. Also all the creators of Julia are
going to be at the event. I think its a great event for Data Lovers.

[datameet] Address formats for India

2015-07-09 Thread Thejesh GN
As part of trip I was sending mass post cards. I was looking for formatting
the address and I came across this.

http://www.upu.int/fileadmin/documentsFiles/activities/addressingUnit/indEn.pdf

Which has the address formats defined by Universal Postal Union for India.
Thought it would be useful if you are collecting address as part of your
project.

[datameet] Support our Pincode Project by Receiving a Postcard :)

2015-06-01 Thread Thejesh GN
Hi All,
All of you know that for a while we have been working on solving the
mystery of pincode. Our hackpad has some great information
<https://datameet.hackpad.com/PINCODE-Hell.-M4hPFJVV2Gm>. One of the
exercise we wanted to was to send postcards and track and measure some
data. We got busy with organizing ODC and other stuff!

Personally I like sending postcards and mapping postboxes
<http://openbangalore.org/postbox/>. Specially when I am travelling. So my
upcoming road trip across India <https://thejeshgn.com/epic-drive/> seems
like an idea opportunity to do this.

I have plan of sending roughly 200 postcards from across India. It could be
to anywhere in India, from places like Hyd to Leh to Jaipur. So if you are
interested in getting a post card and sharing a little information then
fill the form below.
http://goo.gl/forms/xDyPSvopnY


Once you get the postcard. Fill the following form.
http://goo.gl/forms/OuQT5NdxHl

Hurry, you i am leaving this Friday. Same details are at
https://thejeshgn.com/epic-drive/pincode-project/


Thanks,
Thej

[datameet] Fallen documentary

2015-05-29 Thread Thejesh GN
http://www.fallen.io/ww2/

The Fallen of World War II is an interactive documentary that examines the
human cost of the second World War and the decline in battle deaths in the
years since the war. The 15-minute data visualization uses cinematic
storytelling techniques to provide viewers with a fresh and dramatic
perspective of a pivotal moment in history.

The film follows a linear narration, but it allows viewers to pause during
key moments to interact with the charts and dig deeper into the numbers.

I will check the code of pincode project

But in the mean time can you check http://crowdcrafting.org/

See if we can setup a crowdsourced project there so people can contribute.

[datameet] [Privacy][Voter] Project to Link Voter-Id Card with Aadhar Cards Launched

2015-03-02 Thread Thejesh GN
Election commission has started a drive to link to connect UID to Voter ID
called National Electoral Roll Purification and Authentication Programme
(NERPAP), 2015 [1] . It talks about how this is an effort to make a clean
and authenticated voters list.

some things to think about
- But no where it talks about how this data will be used
- Who will have access to this data (only EC,or GoI, UIDAI, Political
Parties etc)
- What kind of privacy protection policies in place as UID can lead to many
other datasets
- What kind of studies have been done before implementing this



* What do you guys think? I think this is a bad bad idea
* Is RTI the best way to get this kind of information from EC?

[datameet] Indian Govt IoT Draft Policy

2014-12-08 Thread Thejesh GN
Article:
http://www.medianama.com/2014/12/223-indian-govt-iot-incubation-centres/
Draft Policy link:
http://deity.gov.in/sites/upload_files/dit/files/Draft-IoT-Policy%20(1).pdf
DM copy:
https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/1376175-draft-iot-policy.html

It does talk about standards and availability of data for
industry/research. But it doesn't talk about the copyright and ownership of
data.

Re: [datameet] opendata.json – Format for making Open Data Discoverable

2014-11-27 Thread Thejesh GN
Thanks.

I had JSON-LD in my head. Thanks for bringing it up. I was thinking of
talking about it in the next blog post, just before we start writing the
spec.

We can define the schema (@context as its called in JSON-LD) as part of the
spec writing. We we publish opendata_v01.jsonld as one of the end results
of the spec writing.

Publishers can refer that from their opendata.json. And aggregators or
search engines can use it for validation when they are pinged. It also
makes their development decoupled.

how does it sound?

[datameet] DataMeet Community Code of Conduct - Draft - Comments please

2014-11-18 Thread Thejesh GN
Dear All,

We are growing both offline and online. So its important to have code of
conduct. We already have one for the Email List[1] on the website. But we
do so many offline events that it becomes important to have a generic one
which applies to all the activities we do.

There are great examples out in the world. Django[2] and Python's CoC have
been recommended as the best in the community. So like any other software
project I have cloned their CoC. They encourage it, in fact Django's is
based on Speakups[3].

Here is the initial version of *DataMeet community CoC[4]*. It applies to
everyone of us. Comments are welcome. I will mark it as Version 1 by the
month end. So send your comments asap.

We also need to create an FAQ and Reporting similar to Django[5][6]. Once
that is done, I will post it to the list and blog for everyone to see and
comment.

But unlike CoC, it would be a great if a group from the community does
that. If anyone on the list is interested in working on it, email me. Most
of this work will be done on DataMeet Wiki.

Thanks,
Thej

[datameet] Privacy vs. Transparency: An Attempt at Resolving the Dichotomy

2014-11-11 Thread Thejesh GN
"So the question before us is: Are these two rights – the right to
transparency and the right to privacy – compatible? Is it a zero-sum game?
Do we have to sacrifice one right to enforce the other? Unfortunately, many
privacy and transparency activists think this is the case and this has
resulted in some conflict. I suggest that these rights are completely
compatible when it comes to addressing the question of power. These rights
do not have to be balanced against one another. There is no need to settle
for a sub-optimal solution." [1]

 “Transparency should be proportional to the power that one has.”[2]

Re: [datameet] Putting out data on Hyderabad

The best way to share the data is to upload it to the archive.org with all
the attributes like source, license etc. Add "datameet" tag if possible.
Then share the link.

I will also add it to the wiki page for people to discover.

[datameet] [Legal] BSI and Resources.org

2014-08-04 Thread Thejesh GN
Hi all,
As you know resources.org has published standards documentation online
https://law.resource.org/pub/in/manifest.in.html

It looks like they bought the DVDs of standard documents and uploaded the
documents to web. Some of the uploaded documents have been converted into
HTML & SVG for portability and life. I know how much effort it takes to do
that and they have done awesome job with that. They informed[1] the BIS
about this and in reply they got a notice[2] to remove the content. Carl
Malamud replied[3] to the notice in elegant way. Its worth the read.

I think this is important for us as an open data community. I am not sure
what we can do as of now, but at the moment we should at the least keep
track of happenings.

*Disclosure*: I was one of the kick-starter baker of resources.org's
campaign called Public Safety Codes of the World: Stand Up For Safety!
<https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/publicresource/public-safety-codes-of-the-world-stand-up-for-safe>
which
wasn't successful :(


   1. [1] Letter by Carl Malamud informing BIS about the conversion and
   upload:  https://law.resource.org/pub/in/bis.gov.in.20140625.pdf

To: i...@thejeshgn.com


[image: IIMB Logo unit Final]

30 July, 2014





Dear Thejesh,

Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore invites you to the third edition
of the *IIMB Policy Hackathon* on the 9th and 10th of August, 2014. IIMB
Policy Hackathon seeks to use analysis and coding skills amongst the larger
public to generate ideas and tools for better governance and to develop
more relevant public policy. It provides an exciting opportunity to
contribute to innovative solutions to public policy challenges and even win
a prize for it.

We have two parallel hacking events this year:

*The Policy Hack *is a team event focused on developing data based policy
responses to a policy issue. Participants are given access to a nationally
representative dataset (e.g. Census of India, National Sample Survey Data,
District Level Health Surveys, etc.) and have 24 hours to identify a policy
challenge and develop a data-based solution to it. Participants are
required to analyze, code, and offer data based solutions to policy
challenges in a 5 page document.

The *App for Governance* is also a team event where we look at developing
technology tools (web portals, mobile apps, and in general, software
solutions) that seeks to leverage information from ordinary users that is
crowd-sources to strengthen governance and public service delivery.
Participants will be given a problem statement that poses a significant
governance challenge at the start of the App Hack and will be expected to
develop, in 24 hours, a technology-based solution to address it.

*Timeline:*

2-2:30 pm, 9th August 2014: Team Registration

3:00 pm, 9th August 2014   : Teams begin Hacking

3:00 pm, 10th August 2014 : Teams submit their work

2:30 pm, 12th August 2014 : Top teams present their work

12.00 pm, 13th August 2014   : Winners Announcement & Prize Distribution

*Registration*:

Participants may register in teams of 3-4, or register as a solo
participant and join a team at the venue on 9th August. There is also the
option to pre-register by writing to cppconfere...@iimb.ernet.in. There is
no fee for registration.

*Prizes for each event:*

Winner: Rs. 40,000

First Runners Up: Rs. 20,000

Second Runners Up: Rs. 10,000

Shortlisted teams will be invited to present at the conference.

The event starts on 9th afternoon at 2:00 pm and ends on 10th August 2014.
Please spread the word in your networks and join us on Facebook.[1]

Re: [datameet] Re: Google mapping comes under CBI scrutiny - what's do we think

2014-07-28 Thread Thejesh GN
1. As per the National Map Policy 2005, “the responsibility for producing,
maintaining and disseminating the topographic map database of the whole
country, which is the foundation of all spatial data, vests with the Survey
of India“.

I have not read National Map Policy but the above paragraph is very generic
and worrisome.

I will spend sometime this week reading the policy and update the list.

2. Is there a list of restricted areas? Do public service agencies like
post office, govt hospital, police stations come under it?

[datameet] Google mapping comes under CBI scrutiny - what's do we think

2014-07-28 Thread Thejesh GN
I am less worried about Google but more about Open Street Map.

In this specific case Google is getting questioned for asking public to
map, which is exactly the case with OSM.

Is there anything that we can do preemptively to safe guard OSM?

   - *Data and information technology: *There is growing excitement about
   the power of open data as a tool both to inform policy and spending
   decisions and to hold governments to account for commitments they make.
   What will this data and technology driven transformation in the development
   project “marketplace” actually look like?? How might citizens use data to
   provide feedback on government services and development projects? What will
   it take to get there?

[datameet] Series - Open Data India Watch - Need Help

2014-07-16 Thread Thejesh GN
Hi All,
If you happen to read DataMeet blog <http://datameet.org/blog/>, I have
been running a series of weekly blog posts called Open Data India Watch
<http://datameet.org/category/reports/open-data-india-watch/>. Its a weekly
report on Open Data, Data Science related news, tools, visualizations etc
in Indian context. I publish it every friday morning. As of now I do
collect them from twitter feed <http://twitter.com/datameet/>, blogs &
newspapers that I keep track of. But i miss so many things.

So if you come across any interesting India related or something that is
interesting to Indians. Please do tweet @datameet
<http://twitter.com/datameet/>, I will pick it up. If you are not on
twitter, please email me directly.

I hope the series is useful.  You can also subscribe to DataMeet
<http://datameet.org/> using RSS feed or by email. Subscription widgets are
on the left side panel of the blog.

Let me know your thoughts.

[datameet] DataMeet on Meetup.com

2014-06-24 Thread Thejesh GN
Hi All,
Planning for a bangalore monthly meetup in the last week of July. I will
announce the date and venue later.

I have started a meetup group for DataMeet, It keeps the email list clean.
No RSVPs on email list etc.

1. I have named the meetup as just DataMeet, May be we can have separate
ones for city level groups. But as of now to start its just datameet, URL is

http://www.meetup.com/DataMeet

So join meetup if you like to meetup physically.

2. We make just the initial announcement of the list and blog. Rest of the
planning of the meetup happens on meetup.com. And depending on the
enthusiasm of the attendees we will have a followup note on the blog.

3. Suggestions are more than welcome.

4. Also I want to propose a talk of mine for July meetup. "Large scale
telephonic polls - my experiences"

[datameet] Yet Another IWP scraper

2014-06-09 Thread Thejesh GN
I am saying yet another because Anand[1] already does that partially. He
downloads the pages and stores them. Last night I wrote a script that also
parses the data and stores into to the database. Also it has functions to
convert this into CSV or JSON (for webapps) as required. The code is at

http://github.com/thejeshgn/imd

I will start from today. In the mean time I am writing a piece of code to
parse the data which Anand has downloaded since 2012. So by the end of the
week, you should have query-able  IMD data from 2012. I will keep you
updated.

Apologies.

But this was done on mailing list because we wanted the inputs only from
the community on this list (rather random website user). I thought it was
easy to authenticate like this than in any other way. I have made a note of
it for future ones.

[datameet] For Map Geeks - Historical Maps of India - Beautiful

2014-05-22 Thread Thejesh GN
Main Page:

Example:
1. Battle of plassey maps
http://www.columbia.edu/itc/mealac/pritchett/00maplinks/colonial/plassey1757/plassey1757.html

2. 1861 of India

3. 1830s detailed maps of India

Do you think we can realign these maps on OSM? Like

That will be one fun project.

You could use
1. SheetJS https://jlord.github.io/sheetsee.js/   - Creates map links and
also makes the columns seachable (or filter)
2. Freedive is actually very cool. What issues are you facing with it?

Re: [datameet] Q on retrieving DUSIB data from G maps engine

2014-05-05 Thread Thejesh GN
Here is what I could figure:

The layers are defined in the javascript :
https://gist.github.com/thejeshgn/fe9853115b2b7cbc7d50#file-cluster-json

And it is displayed using the Javascript
https://gist.github.com/thejeshgn/fe9853115b2b7cbc7d50#file-mapviewer-js


All the layers of type GOOGLE_MAPS_ENGINE
And when you check the map viewer code, it creates an object of
*google.maps.visualization.MapsEngineLayer* to display the maps,
documentation of which is at

https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/mapsenginelayers

With the following note:

*The MapsEngineLayer constructs tiles server-side and returns the tiles to
the client. Use this class if you don't want to re-style the Maps Engine
data on the client side.*

I did check the response to confirm, here is one of the tile:
https://s3.amazonaws.com/media.thejeshgn.com/img/screenshot/tiles.png




*What we can do:*

On the same page using inspector construct DynamicMapsEngineLayer

*The DynamicMapsEngineLayer (experimental) returns vector data to your
client, along with the base map tiles. Your application can change the
vectors' styling in response to user input or other triggers.
(The DynamicMapsEngineLayer class is not supported in Internet Explorer 8
and below.)*

And then on the client side download it.?? Not sure if this reverse
engineering works. Its not a bad idea to try.

Ravi,
It generates a KML of 35MB which is huge for the web apps.

Google maps/API has limitation wrt to the size of KML
https://developers.google.com/kml/documentation/mapsSupport

But it works on leaftlet using
https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/33513/how-do-i-overlay-a-kml-on-leaflet-0-4-4

But even locally rendering it takes about 5 minutes,


So I agree with Srinivasan Ramani, try simplify it.

[datameet] Capturing weather data from Airports

2014-04-12 Thread Thejesh GN
All airports broadcast weather data (both on internet and on radio waves).
We can capture the one from internet available in the  METAR[1] format. It
looks like

VOBL 121000Z 30008KT 270V330 6000 SCT015 SCT020 FEW025CB 33/20 Q1012 TEMPO
5000 TSRA RMK CB SW S SE

Optimized for transmission :) You can decode quite easily.


Check the bangalore airports (BIAL)[2]  info. I am scraping it every
fifteen minutes. It will be available online[4] in addition to my personal
weather station data

I think ODC-ODbl is good choice for data. It allows all kind of usage,
along with attribution, sharealike and keep it open condition. Unless we
have better choice, I think we can go with ODC-ODbl.

[datameet] Please Comment on Copyright License for DataMeet Work

2014-04-11 Thread Thejesh GN
This is for the work related to DataMeet, Produced by DataMeet as part of
events, hackathons or general work, for what sits on one of the DataMeet
accounts. Like
https://github.com/datameet
https://www.youtube.com/user/datameet

*This doesn't apply to work by individuals themselves.*

I am listing the license and thought process behind them. Please do comment.

---
*For artifacts: **CC BY-SA 2.0*
https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/
*Idea:* Allow everyone to use it, in any way they want, as long as they
attribute and share in similar way

Share — copy and redistribute the material in any medium or format
Adapt — remix, transform, and build upon the material for any purpose, even
commercially.

Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the
license, and indicate if changes were made. You may do so in any reasonable
manner, but not in any way that suggests the licensor endorses you or your
use.
ShareAlike — If you remix, transform, or build upon the material, you must
distribute your contributions under the same license as the original.


*For code: GNU/GPL*
https://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html
Allows commercial use and make them share alike just like (but not same)
the  CC BY-SA 2.0

- Allows remix, share, distribute (all 5 freedoms)
- Allows commercial usage
- Makes attribution and share - compulsory



*For Data : Open Data Commons Open Database License (ODbL)*

If we want to use specific license for data then we can use this. This is
similar to CC BY SA 2.0 http://opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/summary/

You are free:
To Share: To copy, distribute and use the database.
To Create: To produce works from the database.
To Adapt: To modify, transform and build upon the database.
As long as you:
Attribute: You must attribute any public use of the database, or works
produced from the database, in the manner specified in the ODbL. For any
use or redistribution of the database, or works produced from it, you must
make clear to others the license of the database and keep intact any
notices on the original database.
Share-Alike: If you publicly use any adapted version of this database, or
works produced from an adapted database, you must also offer that adapted
database under the ODbL.
Keep open: If you redistribute the database, or an adapted version of it,
then you may use technological measures that restrict the work (such as
DRM) as long as you also redistribute a version without such measures.
-


Note: If we are extending some ones code/data/artifact, we can continue to
use the license which the original author has used it. Its easy that way.
If we start one fresh we can use one of ours.

Lets discuss this on the list. I will blog the conclusions/results on
datameet.org/blog next wednesday for future reference.


Thanks a lot for your time.

[datameet] Fwd: Press release-LAUNCH OF SPECIAL WEB-PORTAL AND REFERENCE HANDBOOK

2014-04-03 Thread Thejesh GN
Awesome information  http://pib.nic.in/elections2014/



*Press Information Bureau*

*Government of India*



*GENERAL ELECTIONS 2014:*

*LAUNCH OF SPECIAL WEB-PORTAL AND REFERENCE HANDBOOK*



*New Delhi, 3rd* *April, 2014*



As the nation heads towards the General Elections to elect representatives
for the Sixteenth Lok Sabha, the Press Information Bureau has planned a
series of steps to disseminate information about this mammoth exercise.



A number of factsheets, backgrounders and features have already been issued
on various aspects of the General Elections. The backgrounders cover
detailed and in-depth analysis of various aspects of past elections, with
special focus on the 15th Lok Sabha Elections (2009 General Elections).
State-wise fact-sheets impart information on various states pertaining to
electorate, Parliamentary Constituencies, past elections etc.



Many of the features have been contributed by senior officers of the
Election Commission of India. The features range from the topics like
‘Evolution of Election System in India’, ‘Electoral Laws in India’,
‘Salient Features of Representation of the People Act 1952’, ‘SVEEP- Tool
for Voters Awareness’. New developments like NOTA and VVPAT also figure in
the topic-list and Guidelines for media, Paid News, Opinion Polls & Exit
Polls have also been covered under features.



Today, PIB has released ‘*General Elections 2014: Reference Handbook*’, a
compendium on past elections and the latest provisions relating to the
general elections. Apart from English and Hindi, the book will be made
available in 11 regional languages, namely, Assamese, Bengali, Gujarati,
Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Oriya, Punjabi, Tamil, Telugu and Urdu.



Simultaneously, the Bureau has launched a web-portal, dedicated for the
General Elections 2014: *pib.nic.in/elections2014
.* This will be used for dissemination of
important instructions, orders and press notes of the ECI*.* The Reference
Handbook also will be made available on this portal. On Counting-Day, i.e.
May 16th, 2014, this portal shall also be used to disseminate official
trends and results, based on real-time data made available by the Election
Commission of India. These trends and results will also be shared on social
media, and through SMS.



Once the results have been declared, this office will analyze the data of
the Sixteenth General Elections in detail, and a compiled version thereof
will be released.
