Data Workflow - OpenWaterFoundation/owf-data-co-river-outfitters GitHub Wiki

The general workflow is as follows once the basic dataset is created:

  1. Data flags are created for many of the data columns that indicate data status as described above.
  2. The data are formatted as a table to allow for data filtering.
  3. The dataset is saved in .xlsx format.
  4. The xlsx-formatted file is opened in TSTool and a short command file (Process-xlsx-to-csv.TSTool) converts the dataset into CSV format, to be used in additional data-processing steps.
  5. The xlsx-formatted file is opened in TSTool and a short command file (Process-xlsx-to-geojson.TSTool) converts the dataset into GeoJSON format. This step is optional and applicable for datasets in which a map will be created or if further processing will occur in GIS application such as QGIS.
