ETL for mdc_distance_to_water

######### # GDSC ETL is performed in two steps: shell script to ETL data into postgres # and then additional transformations with SQL in postGIS (if needed). #### ######### # Step 1 - bash script (pseudo code) #### # create directory structure and move into it mkdir -p /data/mdc_2021_hylo/{download,mdc_distance_to_water/etl} && cd /data/mdc_2021_hylo # set update flag based on last update and update frequency do_update=0 if date() < last_update + update_frequency else do_update = 1 # download if update flag is set: if do_update == 1 then wget -O download/mdc_2021_hylo.zip 'https://scholarship.miami.edu/view/fileRedirect?instCode=01UOML_INST&filePid=13395678880002976&download=true' # unzip to download directory if update flag is set if do_update == 1 then unzip -d download download/mdc_2021_hylo.zip && rm download/mdc_2021_hylo.zip
