Getting COVID-19 Data (Julia)
In this post, I will cover getting open source COVID-19 data for the United States using Julia. The data pipeline demonstrated here is very simple example and could easily be adapted into a Prefect, Apache NiFi or Apache AirFlow ETL process. Data Search Performing a quick search on DuckDuckGo I got The COVID Tracking Project,…
