At DataKind on 7th November 2018 I am speaking to a charity who would like to build a map tool that works in a similar way to the one on http://www.domesticabusemigration.co.uk/.

That site includes the code for the map. The code helpfully links to the following resources which helped the developer to make it:

• http://bl.ocks.org/michellechandra/0b2ce4923dc9b5809922
• https://github.com/alignedleft/d3-book/blob/master/chapter_14/05_choropleth.html
• https://bost.ocks.org/mike/map/
• http://www.d3noob.org/2013/03/a-simple-d3js-map-explained.html
• http://blockbuilder.org/jessihamel/9648495

Data replication

The idea here is to load the routes for the router and draft-router. Life's too short to work out how to create the routes manually!

• cd /var/govuk/govuk-puppet/development-vm/replication
• Apply replicate-data-local.diff patch to skip all dbs on mongo-1.backend & api-mongo-1.api
• Run the following command to import data for router & draft-router: ./replicate-data-local.sh -s -d backups/YYYY-MM-DD -p -q -e -t -i 'collections_publisher contacts release search_admin tariff_admin tariff_temporal'
