Work

We do not name clients without their permission, so client work is described without names. Our own product, eolas, is public and can be checked directly.

Our product

eolas

A public API for New Zealand and OECD statistics, built and run by Virtus Solutions.

ProblemOfficial statistics are public but awkward to use, spread across portals with inconsistent formats.
What we builtPipelines that load each agency's releases, an API service, Python and R clients, and a command-line tool.
How it relates to client workIt uses the same approach as our client platforms: tested pipelines, a visible run history, and a source and licence recorded on each table.
