COVID-19

GeoJSON data conversion for the JHU CSSE COVID-19 analysis

Introduction

This project has been created to convert the daily JHU CSSE COVID-19 data into GeoJSON (RFC-7946) so that it can be easily plotted using mapping software, tools and libraries.

Prerequisites

Before proceeding to install this software, please ensure you have NodeJS and NPM installed on your system. I recommend you install these with NVM if you haven't done so already.

Getting Started

Follow the steps below to launch this tool locally:

• Clone this project onto your machine
• Change into the newly created directory
• Install the projects dependencies npm install
• Build the source files npm run build
• Copy the example env config cp .env.example .env
• Update the SOURCE_URL value
• Run the tool npm start
• You should have a covid-19.jsonl file

TIP Due to the report size the output file is formatted as JSON Lines for easier application consumption.

Example

Below is a sample from the generated output file.
