Imports INEGI geospatial database into a readable CSV
Every application interacting with the INEGI's geospatial data, uses a standalone copy of the database, or implements its own snowflake solution, causing inconsistencies, missing the benefits of having a centralized source of truth.
Unluckily we couldn't figure out how to prevent this 😓.
However, inegi-geo
removes the hassle of importing the INEGI's geospatial
data into a readable CSV that you can edit to select the combinations you
want.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile
:
gem 'inegi-geo'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself:
$ gem install inegi-geo
Once the gem is installed, run the following command to download the dataset and transform it into a CSV.
rake inegi:geo:download inegi:geo:transform
# DOWNLOADED: states.zip (%100)
# DOWNLOADED: municipalities.zip (%100)
# DOWNLOADED: localities.zip (%100)
# UNZIP: localities.zip -> localities.dbf
# UNZIP: municipalities.zip -> municipalities.dbf
# UNZIP: states.zip -> states.dbf
# CONVERTED: localities.dbf -> localities.csv
# CONVERTED: municipalities.dbf -> municipalities.csv
# CONVERTED: states.dbf -> states.csv
Delete the .zip
and .dbf
or put them on your .gitignore
if you want
to save them locally.
rm -f datasets/*[^.csv]
After editing the CSV to select the columns that you want, you can use activerecord-import to insert the data in the CSVs into your database.
# head -n 5 states.csv
"code","name"
"01","Aguascalientes"
"02","Baja California"
"03","Baja California Sur"
"04","Campeche"
# head -n 5 municipalities.csv
"state_code","code","name"
"01","001","Aguascalientes"
"01","002","Asientos"
"01","003","Calvillo"
"01","004","Cosío"
# head -n 5 localities.csv
"state_code","municipality_code","code","name"
"01","001","0001","Aguascalientes"
"01","001","0094","Granja Adelita"
"01","001","0096","Agua Azul"
"01","001","0100","Rancho Alegre"
The size of the CSVs:
Size Name
---- ----
10M localities.csv
68k municipalities.csv
612 states.csv
In this example, I chose to store State
, Municipality
, and Locality
.
rails generate model state code:string \

rails generate model municipality code:string \
name:string \
state_code:string \

rails generate model locality code:string \

def import_from_csv(dataset)
file = Rails.root.join('datasets', "#{dataset}.csv")
klass = dataset.classify.constantize
return if klass.count > 0
print "\rImporting #{dataset.pluralize}..."
klass.transaction do
rows = CSV.read(file)
headers = rows.delete_at(0)
klass.import(headers, rows, validate: false)
end
puts "\rImported #{dataset.pluralize}: #{klass.count}"
end
def update_references
return unless Municipality.where(state_id: nil).exists? ||
Locality.where(municipality_id: nil).exists?
print "\rUpdating references..."
states = <<~SQL
UPDATE municipalities
SET state_id = states.id
FROM states
WHERE municipalities.state_code = states.code;
UPDATE localities
SET state_id = states.id
FROM states
WHERE localities.state_code = states.code;
SQL
municipalities = <<~SQL
UPDATE localities
SET municipality_id = municipalities.id
FROM municipalities
WHERE localities.state_code = municipalities.state_code
AND localities.municipality_code = municipalities.code;
SQL
ActiveRecord::Base.connection.execute(states)
ActiveRecord::Base.connection.execute(municipalities)
puts "\rUpdating references: DONE"
end
import_from_csv 'states'
import_from_csv 'municipalities'
import_from_csv 'localities'
update_references
The code above imports the data from the CSV to the models, and update the references. The time to run this (in my computer) is below 1 minute.
