This repository is part of the Smartuse Toolbox

Background and data processing: github.com/cividi/ch-municipalities

This repository compiles tools to generate a Frictionless Data compliant Datapackage of the current Swiss municipalities in CSV, JSON and GeoJSON formats.

To add new datasets or make modifications, please visit our GitHub repository and contact us via Issues or Pull Request.

Published on Datahub. Validated on GoodTables

Prerequisites

To generate the CSV files you need to install Node.js, either with the official Node.js installer or via Homebrew:

brew install node

You also need GDAL and the corresponding python-gdal library installed. On OS X you can also use Homebrew:

brew install gdal

Now, clone this reposiory and run make

git clone https://github.com/smartuse/toolbox-municipalities.git
cd toolbox-municipalities
npm install
make

The downloads, build and the data folders should now be populated with processes files.

  • data/gemeinden.geojson is generated first
  • data/gemeinden.csv is derived from the geojson
  • data/gemeinden.json is then derived from the csv version

Push to Datahub

In order to push to Datahub, you need the CLI Datahub Tools installed. They are part of the npm package dependencies, so should already be installed when you ran npm install earlier.
