Instructions and scripts for adding new cases for the Hurricane Maria project. The existing databases live at:
https://hurricanemariadead.com/
https://losmuertosdemaria.com/
### Recent updates:
Latest data updated on *Dec. 19, 2018*, **504 cases**
*August 30*, 2018, **487 cases**
## Adding new cases
You need to first download a copy of this repo to your computer. After you are done with the process described below, submit a pull request.
### 1. Getting cases from Google Form responses
[Las víctimas de María (Responses)](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1FK0j919EveJg6HJI_2139uQrX4W-jHX6bcBRAqQVSeI/edit#gid=1388179220)
If you don't have permission, ask Ana Campoy, Omaya Sosa, or Larry Fenn to help.
* Export the sheet directly:
`File > Download as ... > Microsoft Excel(.xlsx)`
* Delete all the cases in the spreadsheet up to the *Last Updated* date at the top of this Readme document you just downloaded. Save it.
* Put the newly-saved file into the `data` folder: `data/Las víctimas de María (Responses).xlsx`.
### 2. Generate bitacoras
Run `getBitacoras.R`
### 3. Get information from bitacoras
- Inform Laura Candelas (CPI), who will coordinate verification phone calls using the bitacoras in the folder `bitacoras/Empty/`
- Gather only the complete bitacoras to the folder `bitacoras/Filled/`
- Run script `processBitacoras.R`
### 4. Copy edits and translation
Send the file file `data/forProcess/for_translation_copyedits.xlsx` to Laura and Ezequiel for copy edits and translation. They need to do three things:
* Spanish copy editing for column `text_field_es` (Laura)
* Translate the column `text_field_es` to column `text_field_en` and copy edit `text_field_en` (Ezequiel)
* Translate the column `causes_en` to column `causes_es` (Laura)
(The person who does copy edits should also do a general additional verification to make sure qualtitative information in `text_field` matches other basic info, such as gender (as inferred from name), clinical cause of death, mechanism of death, age, etc, and make corrections or flag cases accordingly. )
When getting back the file, please save it and replace the exising `data/forProcess/for_translation_copyedits.xlsx`
### 5. Merge it back into the database
Run `merge.R`
### 6. Submit pull request
