BIJ1 Afdelingen

Data on BIJ1's local branches in the Netherlands, and their various areas.

goals

• Formalize data on BIJ1 branches and their areas:
  • municipality
  • BIJ1 branch
  • campaign area
• incorporate Caribbean municipalities
• incorporate branches in founding
• add branch status (in founding, official, inactive)
• Figure out the above given a member's address
• Make SVGs of the above areas, with tooltips.
• Facilitate automatically updating the above, including when source data changes.

caveats

• Our best data mapping addresses to municipality is based on a 2020 dataset consisting of postal code (in pc6 format, e.g. 1234AB) plus number (huisnummer). Such a mapping is not fully deterministic however, as this would require also the extensions (e.g. 1A), data on which seems nonexistant.
• Having used that 2020 dataset, we had to guess a present municipality for the former municipality of Haaren, which in 2021 was split into Boxtel / Oisterwijk / Vught / Tilburg.

requirements

• a Unix environment (Linux, Mac, WSL, ...)
