Description

https://tools.humdata.org/examples/hxl/

We should look at how we can support interpreting CSV data coded with HXL. With this we can use the data to help define some of the ways the data should be visualized (ie - defining the admin boundary column for joins, how we disaggregate data, etc). This requires more exhaustive research of what is relevant to support but here are some initial examples.

Admin levels

Provides a way for us to define the levels in our apps (admin 1-3). We can use these to correspond to the layers we use in the app. We could also start to create generic vector tiles that map to top level admin boundaries that have iso-codes and or pcodes. We'll probably work to create vector tiles that map to a few different properties (iso, pcode, osmid). We've been using OSMID but others is probably better.

Male / Female

We can look for tags and automatically know to offer a disaggregation option for this as an example.
