EQuIS REST API and Power BI Connector implementation with support provided by EarthSoft client, Antea Group
Ocean Wise Conservation Association (Ocean Wise) is a not-for-profit organization based in Vancouver, British Columbia (BC), Canada, whose vision is a world in which oceans are healthy and flourishing. Ocean Wise uses EQuIS to store and manage the growing contaminants dataset and to facilitate reporting of results for their PollutionTracker program, the first coast-wide contaminant monitoring program in Canada meant to inform various contaminant-related marine research projects.
The recent integration of EQuIS REST API, provided by EarthSoft client, Antea Group, facilitates more interactive visual reporting and data sharing capabilities through automated Microsoft Power BI dashboards. Automating reporting involves blank corrections and contaminant total calculations, as well as comparing contaminant levels to Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment (CCME) guidelines within Power BI. These improvements enable the Pollution Tracker program to efficiently analyze data and make real-time decisions by utilizing enhanced trend analysis and visualizations. These insights can be easily shared with both our partners and supporters.
This month New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) released a new email address for submitting Merge EDDs that will be used in a new EQuIS sub-system called Automated Data Loading (ADL).
"EQuIS will automatically collect Merge EDDs submitted to NYSDEC at this e-mail address, then check the EDDs for errors and, if they are error-free, load the EDDs into the NYSDEC EQuIS database using Enterprise EDP. Notifications will be automatically returned to the data providers that indicate either (a) their EDDs were successfully uploaded; or (b) the EDDs were rejected, and an error report with any errors contained in the EDD will be attached to the notification. This ADL system will greatly reduce the time it takes to check submitted EDDs for errors and upload them to the NYSDEC EQuIS database."
- Douglas Morrison, Information Technology Specialist (GIS), NYSDEC
