Task/s: Repeatedly import data about Czech Veteran Trees to Wikidata from an authoritative source

Code: The component developed (GitHub) uses Wikidata Toolkit. The component can be used in various pipelines for various tasks loading data into Wikidata.

Function details:

  • The component itself can be used for generic editing of Wikidata through the Wikidata Toolkit. It is developed in scope of the Wikidata & ETL project grant and was demoed at a Wikimania 2019 workshop and poster.
  • In the current task, it will update data about Czech Veteran Trees from the authoritative source by means of an ETL pipeline using the component.
  • This means that missing trees will be added, information about existing trees will be updated, if updated in the source.
  • The pipeline will be scheduled to run periodically (probably monthly).
  • More tasks (data source) will be added as separate requests in future.

@Jakub Klímek: Isn't it possible to add location (P276) and/or narrow down location by located in the administrative territorial entity (P131)? Lymantria (talk) 06:23, 7 November 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Lymantria: It is possible. However, the location coordinates in the source API are in a Czech-specific system (J-TSK) and we still have some work to do on translation to WGS84 usable in Wikidata, but we are working on that. Jakub Klímek (talk) 09:58, 7 November 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I am ready to approve this request in a couple of days, provided that no objections will be raised. Lymantria (talk) 13:59, 9 November 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
