Forum:Sector Data Layout
As part of the output for the PyRoute trade map generation system is the economic data. (E.g. Spinward Marches Sector/data). I've also been asked to include the base sector data (E.g. Spinward Marches) as a page in the wiki. I haven't been doing the latter because the Traveller Map site does such a good job of hosting the data.
But I've had it point out that we could host the data in a more wikified format than simple text files. For example: Zarushagar_Sector/data#Sorted_Data. You can still cut/paste from this format to other places (e.g. a spreadsheet) as it comes out as a tab delimited, which is the for specified for the data files originally.
So my plan is, unless someone has a new/better idea to have each sector processed by the trade route maps have two sub-pages:
- <sector>/sector data -> With the wikified sector data
- <sector>/economic data -> With the wikified economic data
So questions on the poll today.
- Do you even like the idea of the wikified data for each sector?
- Do you think the text mode article is useful enough to keep, or be used instead of, the wikified version?
- Should I also do this for the subsectors as well?
