Elastic Singapore User Group Meetup
Singapore
🇸🇬Singapore
May. 2019
Come and learn how you can enrich your existing data with normalized postal addresses with geo location points thanks to open data and BANO project .
Most of the time postal addresses from our customers or users are not very well formatted or defined in our information systems. And it can become a nightmare if you are a call center employee for example and want to find a customer by its address. Imagine as well how a sales service could easily put on a map where are located the customers and where they can open a new shop…
Let’s take a simple example:
{
"name": "Joe Smith",
"address": {
"number": "23",
"street_name": "r verdiere",
"city": "rochelle",
"country": "France"
}
}
Or the opposite. I do have the coordinates but I can’t tell what is the postal address corresponding to it:
{
"name": "Joe Smith",
"location": {
"lat": 46.15735,
"lon": -1.1551
}
}
In this live coding session, I will show you how to solve all those questions using the Elastic stack with a lot of focus on Logstash and Elasticsearch.
The following resources were mentioned during the presentation or are useful additional information.
Developer | Evangelist at elastic and creator of the Elastic French User Group . Frequent speaker about all things Elastic, in conferences, for User Groups and in companies with BBL talks . In my free time, I enjoy coding and deejaying as DJ Elky , just for fun. Living with my children in Cergy, France.
I discovered Elasticsearch project in 2011. After contributed to the project and created open source plugins for it, David joined elastic the company in 2013 where he is Developer and Evangelist. He also created and still actively managing the French spoken language User Group. At elastic, he mainly worked on Elasticsearch source code, specifically on open-source plugins. In his free time, he likes talking about elasticsearch in conferences or in companies (Brown Bag Lunches AKA BBLs ). He is also author of FSCrawler project which helps to index your pdf, open office, whatever documents in elasticsearch using Apache Tika behind the scene.
You can see here the countries I have visited so far. Most of them are for business purpose but who said you can not do both: business and leisure?
