EIRA - Flooding resilience in Mauritania - Data repository
# EIRA data repository
This repository aims to store sample data for the project **EIRA - Enhancing Infrastructure Resilience to flooding using Afforestation: the
case of Nouakchott city, Mauritania**.
:rotating_light: GitHub limits the size of files allowed in repositories. If you attempt to add or update a file that is larger than 50 MB, you will receive a warning from Git.
## Architecture
The following architecture have been developed.
## Data
All data have been transformed into vector tiles. Vector tiles are a way of storing and transmitting spatial data that is designed to be more efficient and flexible than traditional raster-based approaches.
Vector tiles are generated via a processing that can be run on demand.
Raster tiles are not yet implemented (no data) .
## Style
= The way data is displayed, managed via json file.
The styles can be found under the folder `style`of this repository.
Currently, 3 styles have been designed :
* with vector data only : style_no_background.json.
* With vector data + raster background : style_raster_background.json.
* with vector data + vector backcround : style_raster_vecor_background.json.
NB :
* Background raster style can be chosen from this app.
* The style can be visualized (and modified) via the maputnik online tool.
## Application
The webmap application is developed using an OpenSource webmap library. It displays the vector tiles data via the Json style file.
