SAS Viya Trial - COVID-19 Data Discovery Environment

Hello!

I registered to test the COVID-19 Data Discovery Environment but there is no option to import my data set. Though in the mail i received i got the following:

Each user can also upload non-PII (personally identifiable information) data, which is limited to 1 GB. The following commonly used data sources are supported: Microsoft Excel spreadsheets, CSV files, and SAS datasets.

Can you help?

BR,

Andreas Zaras

You haven't mention which type of data you are looking for.

If you google for "covid-19 data download" you'll get several urls that enables downloading data like:

COVID-19 cases worldwide - https://www.ecdc.europa.eu/sites/default/files/documents/COVID-19-geographic-disbtribution-worldwide.xlsx

Today’s data on the geographic distribution - https://www.ecdc.europa.eu/sites/default/files/documents/COVID-19-geographic-disbtribution-worldwide-2020-04-10.xlsx

or - Download full database from World Health Organization.

and more.

Do you find a fitting url to your interest?

I understand that you downloaded the file.

What type of file, is it? what is the name suffix?

Can you open the file by any Microsoft program (excel or notepad or ...)?

Please post few first lines of it - does it contain labels? leading lines? and what

columns are in it ?
