Create timeline displaying publication dates (s1) #63
Description
Metric request
Timeline that displays publication dates
Proposed Statistic/Metric: [Describe the new statistic you want to add to the dataset]
Show publication dates in ascending order
Justification: [Explain why this new statistic would be valuable for the dataset and its users]
Would allow researchers to visually view which projects were published most recent or least recent
Implementation Details
Data Source: The information needed to compute the statistic should come from this file https://download.brainimagelibrary.org/inventory/daily/reports/today.json or any file(s) listed in today.json.
df url = 'https://download.brainimagelibrary.org/inventory/daily/reports/today.json'
Calculation Method: [Outline the calculation or algorithm to derive the new statistic]
To be determined
Expected Output: [Describe the expected format or structure of the new statistic or an example output]
A timeline plot that displays the publication order of different projects
Additional Information
Stakeholders: [List the stakeholders who would benefit from being aware of this statistic]
Researchers would benefit because they are able to see all of the publication dates and could determine which are still relevant
Viz: [List the potential visualizations that could be used with this statistic. Check this link for additional information]
Potential could be to use the timeline to determine whether or not the data might be outdated
Impact: [Discuss the potential impact of adding this statistic, such as its usefulness for analysis, research, or decision-making]
Potential of this statistic for decision-making is that we can determine the quality of the data based on the metric of time and what is still relevant
