PROSPER is a new production tool for EVE Online. Utilizing a group-level methodology, the tools are designed to maximize returns for a group and automate the process as much as possible.

Development plan

#Goals

• Build a database for custom tooling. Allow maximum flexibility for data manipulation/processing/display
• Automate product selection process
• Allow real world accounting/tracking of progress
• Build a clean front-facing UI to oversee/audit automation and progress
• Create modules that allow for easy interfacing
• Design for CREST API. Maximize automation to minimize unbillable work
• Track contributions automatically

Modules

• DB_builder: a python wrapper that will query public data sources and build a local copy of the hosted DB's Prosper uses

Database tables

• prosper: processed down from raw eve-central data dumps. Normalized: has NULL's filled. Subset: includes only top systems by market capitalization
• kills: data from zKillboard. Used as companion data for "volume" to measure destruction data.
• builder: contains historical build cost data. Now/1d/7d/14d/30d values for charting price trends against real build statistics.

Internal Apps

• POS Tracker: A web tool to check the status of moon mining POS
• Bacon: A buy/sell manager for public material acquisition and direct product sales
• Quantum: The automation "black box" for processing item data and generating production tasks
• Toaster: A killboard crawler for processing item destruction data
• Overseer: HR manager. Handles applications, staff resources, and accounting.
• Librarian: Asset manager. Tracks materials, blueprints, and finished products. Reports ISK values back to Overseer.
