Miha Zidar (2016) The World Bank Data Access from Orange Data Mining Toolkit. EngD thesis.
Abstract
Orange is an open source data-mining software, capable of using multiple sources for data analysis. There are a few test data samples already present in Orange, and the user can import their own data sets with the use of one of Orange input widgets. For this thesis, we created an add-on Orange Data Sets, that includes widgets for accessing free data from World Bank application program interface (API). The World Bank exposes four different data APIs; indicator, project, finance and climate. Widgets included in the Orange Data Sets add-on are be able to read data from the World Bank Indicators and World Bank Climate APIs. This will enable Orange users a quick and easy access to data from the two previously mentioned APIs.
