It uses a Python script and Github Action to run weekly.

Created by the Joint Data Center on Forced Displacement.

Data

Each microdata library has its own subfolder. The records are saved in the following format:

  • metadata.csv: list of all datasets available

  • datasets.csv: all information about the datasets in both microdata libraries

Code

list.py: Lists all datasets in the MDLs and creates a CSV file with the metadata

get.py: Loop through all rows in metadata.csv to get data from the datasets and generate the datasets.csv file.
