Package to download and interact with the CITES Trade Database in Python
Project description
pycites
pycites is a package to download and interact with the CITES Trade Database using Python. citesdb exists for R users to load and analzyes this data, so we wanted a way to do the same!
Currently very much a work in progress. This only allows uses to download CITES trade data and load it as a pandas DataFrame.
Installation
pip install pycites
Roadmap
- Release a CSV to make it easier for users to download and load data
- Experiement with other data formats for better memory usage of data (currently pretty high)
- Include metadata and other useful information, like
citesdb - Add additional functionality for analysis (time series and network analyses), and integrate with other data sources (such as World Bank)
- Setup CI and testing
