Desarrollo de una aplicación web para el análisis de los datos de estabilidad del carbono orgánico en la zona alto andina de la sierra centro del Ecuador.

Abstract

The objective of this work was the development of the web application called EcoAndes to ensure the quality of the data collected in the research project "Stability of organic carbon in the face of climate change for resource management with a gender approach in the high Andean zone of the central highlands of Ecuador” and integrate them into a single repository allowing the reuse of this data for analysis. The agile Scrum methodology was applied to manage the development. Among the technologies used are The Angular framework with the TypeScript language, the Spring Boot framework with the Java language, and PostgreSQL for the database. Among the web application modules, it is worth highlighting the construction of a data catalog through which the integration of the datasets is achieved. Furthermore, based on the methodology of Amicis and Batini (2004), the ISO/IEC 25012 standard, among other sources, the evaluation of data quality was carried out with and without the use of the EcoAndes web application; in this way, the "News" characteristic with 95% constitutes the highest percentage when using the web application, while without the application it is the lowest percentage with 44%, evidencing an improvement of 51%. Furthermore, with the Wilcoxon test, based on a survey carried out among expert researchers, it is concluded that there is a significant difference between the quality of the data with and without a web application. Likewise, under the ISO/IEC 25010 standard, the web application was evaluated based on the quality characteristic "Satisfaction"; in this way, the sub-characteristic "Trust" with 84% is the one that achieves the highest percentage. Finally, the Pearson correlation establishes a strong correlation between data quality and the quality of the EcoAndes web application.
