Experience
Mosaic of Influence
The project's goal is to gather as much available data on politically exposed people (from Croatia and the region) and create a search engine for it. The idea is to get as many relations between entities as possible. The entities are people (mostly politicians and business), NGOs, companies, and public authorities.
My role was gathering various data sources, creating ETL packages for reading/transforming the data, and, finally, writing it to a central warehouse using an API.
ETL packages were created with R.
The search engine will be public in 2019
