The IPIS Open Data dashboard<\/strong><\/a> on artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) enables users to query and subset IPIS Open Data<\/strong><\/a> using various combinations of filters. The dashboard was designed to complement the IPIS Webmap of DRC<\/strong><\/a>, providing key visuals to enhance understanding of the ASM sector in eastern DRC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The different visual elements of the dashboard \u2013 i.e. a map of mining sites, key figures, graphs and charts on ASM sector \u2013 are reactive and reload each time a filter is adjusted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The filters are available in the left sidebar<\/strong> as slider control, tickbox and dropdown menu filters. They allow subsetting IPIS Open Data by: date of visit, source of data, province, mineral, number of workers per mining site, access to the mining site, mineral traceability, official qualification status, presence of state services, armed groups, as well as reported armed interference, presence of child labour and mercury use. Any mining site that does not meet the filter\u2019s criteria will disappear from the map and will not contribute towards the key figures and graphs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sites visited by IPIS are selected by default since these provide the most comprehensive source of data for mining sites in the Open-Data. Using a tickbox filter, the dashboard also allows users to select additional mining sites for which the location was shared by IPIS partners but which have not always been visited by IPIS. In the latter case, information on types of minerals per mine are provided, as well as occasional data on workers number and traceability programmes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
