May 1, 2026May 2026 (2026-05) performance summary for bcgov/wps. Delivered targeted robustness improvements to weather data processing, de-duplicated fuel data retrieval, and enhanced the ASA Go frontend UX, complemented by a KFC preparation migration script. These efforts reduced downstream failures, improved data reliability, and modernized the UI and data pipeline controls to align with updated tech stacks. Key outcomes: - Weather Data Processing Robustness: Hardened downloads/processing for NOAA NAM/GFS and grass curing data; refined URL handling; non-disruptive logging of HTTP 403/404; improved grass curing coordinate handling. - Fuel Data Deduplication: Eliminated duplicate fuel type IDs in data retrieval; added unit tests to prevent regression. - ASA Go UI/UX Enhancements: Delivered responsive landing page for portrait/landscape; updated styling to align with MUI changes. - KFC Preparation Migration: Implemented database migration adjusting KFC preparation level criteria based on fire start ranges and mean intensity groups. Impact: - Increased pipeline reliability and data integrity across critical weather and fuel datasets. - Reduced manual troubleshooting due to explicit HTTP error logging and dedup safeguards. - Improved user experience in the ASA Go interface. - Streamlined data model updates with a focused migration path for KFC readiness. Tech stack and skills demonstrated: - Python data pipelines, robust error handling, and unit testing. - Frontend React/MUI adjustments and responsive design. - SQL/database migration scripting and data criteria modeling.
