[datameet] Re: Newbie here- Need help with shape file of constituencies of India.

[Manas Sharma]

Hey,

Do you have any idea where I can find the map for tamil nadu's assembly 
constituencies. The one on the datameet repo has only 165 of them. There is 
234. If not, how do i go about making a shapefile of my own?

Thanks

Hi,

Thank you! But I couldnt find this repo on the git. Isnt it the one located 
here? https://github.com/datameet/maps/tree/master/assembly-constituencies
Are there individual state shape files too somewhere?

Thanks.

[datameet] Live data stream for election results and trends

[Arun Ganesh]

Is there a hidden API from the ECI where one can get the live counts during
the tallying process. They are currently updating all the results on
http://eciresults.nic.in/ every 5-10minutes.

How do the TV channels do it? Is it all manual?

[Pratap Vardhan]

TV channels usually use private feeds like Nelson, which have faster data 
polling than ECI site. If you re looking to use ECI site data, you could 
scrape using candidate.py and constituency.py from 
here https://github.com/pratapvardhan/Maharashtra-State-Elections-2014

That's the correct location. This file has the ACs for all the states,
combined together.

Re: [datameet] Newbie here- Need help with shape file of constituencies of India.

[Devdatta Tengshe]

Hi Manas,
You need a GIS software to create maps from shapefiles. I'll suggest QGIS,
which is an opensource, free and a feature rich software. You can download
it from http://qgis.org

Once you add the shapefile to QGIS, you can render it however you like.
See this doc for more details:
http://docs.qgis.org/2.0/uk/docs/training_manual/basic_map/symbology.html

Devdatta
