Project Meeting 4 - some aspects of the TOOLBOX

The first day of the GA Conference was a sunny day. After breakfast in the hotel, we walked through Guildford to the University and our meeting room.

One of the outcomes of the meeting was the Workshop which was delivered at the GA Conference on the Wednesday of conference. We spent time finalising this, and also taking a look at some of the tools that were produced as part of the website.

Head to the website and click on TOOLS.
Click on CHART YOUR INPUT

This tool allows users to create a map from their own data, with remarkable ease and speed. Once entered, data will be visualised in a number of formats, added to a map if location data is available, and made available to download as a CSV file for use in other tools and applications.

There is a simple format that is required for the data entry.

Enter years in the following format e.g. ,2012,2013,2014 would plot the years 2012-2014

Note the use of a comma at the start of the line

On the following lines, enter the data header, followed by the data itself, separated by commas

e.g.

France,56,67,43

Germany,78,84,43

Click SUBMIT to see the data as a table, then choose from the options at the top to create graphs or maps, and download the data.

A User Guide for this process will be available shortly.
