Data Migration

27 January 2010

I took the Broad Street Line to work today. In 2008 the Coalition was awarded a grant to create a new database. Last year, I helped them analyze their database and made suggestions for the structure of their new database. They worked with NPower, a software group to create an online database called Sales Force. The official launch is the 15th of February. A lot of the data that was migrated had duplicates, and did not connect properly to some associations. For the entire day I edited duplicated organizations, fixed organization hierarchies, and added specific contacts to the mailing list to which they were supposed to be attached.
