Districts fields

jpmckinney edited this page Feb 21, 2013 · 4 revisions

The districts collection is populated by data in the manual_data directory (see e.g. OpenStates). As such, it is very consistent.

Fields on all documents

  • _id: the district ID in the format abbr-chamber-name
  • abbr: the jurisdiction ID, e.g. ak
  • chamber: the chamber, e.g. lower or upper
  • name: the district name, e.g. 1
  • boundary_id: the boundary ID in the boundary service, e.g. sldl/ak-1
  • num_seats: the number of seats for this district, usually 1
