November 2024 monthly summary for Public-Health-Scotland/list-localities-profiles: delivered two key features focusing on data pipeline reliability and map interpretability. Implemented an automated recursive CSV-to-RDS conversion that scans all CSV files across nested folders, converts them to RDS, and saves to the main data directory for the year, eliminating the separate load/save function. Added a legend title 'Service Type' on the service map to clarify color semantics, improving end-user interpretability. These changes reduce manual steps, minimize errors, and provide a foundation for reliable year-over-year data refreshes. Technologies demonstrated include RDS serialization, recursive file processing, and map visualization enhancements; core skills include data engineering, version control, and data visualization. Overall business impact: faster, more accurate data refresh cycles, clearer analytics outputs, and stronger governance of yearly datasets.
