Description
Session Goal
The session aimed to enhance the handling of JSON data structures, focusing on hierarchical data and time series extraction.
Key Activities
- Design Approaches for Data Structuring: Discussed four design methods for structuring data related to poverty metrics, evaluating their pros and cons.
- Data Access Approaches: Explored four methods to access time series data from a JSON structure using Python, specifically for department ‘D1’.
- Redesign of JSON Export Functions: Redesigned the
exportar_a_json_jerarquicoandmerge_jsonsfunctions to create hierarchical JSON structures for compressed time series data. - Incorporation of Metadata: Updated the
exportar_a_json_jerarquicofunction to include metadata fields likelast_updated,frecuencia, andfrac. - Function to Merge JSON Structures: Developed a function to merge JSON structures, preserving existing data and appending new entries.
- Verbose Logging: Implemented logging in the
merge_jsonsfunction to aid debugging.
Achievements
- Successfully redesigned and implemented functions for exporting and merging hierarchical JSON structures.
- Enhanced JSON functions with metadata incorporation and improved debugging capabilities.
Pending Tasks
- Further testing and validation of the JSON functions in diverse data scenarios to ensure robustness and accuracy.
