Exploration rarities and statistics - what you should look for

Here it is:

Strangely enough, I don't get any more information than is stated in that image. Even though I've mapped the planet.
 
Oh, that one again. … It is even more curious than that. I'm listed as the discoverer of that particular body. But how can I than have visited it on my journey to the records of the galaxy? The latter is just possible if somebody else has discovered it before.

It was likely a manual entry to Ross initially and unattributed then you were the first person to send a journal scan to EDSM.

Although the last time I did that for something crazy in their data (gas giant with impossible rotational period that put the surface velocity a few orders of magnitude above escape velocity) the website fixed itself, not sure why this one is still mad in EDSM. Maybe we need to scan it again, or bug @AnthorNet
 
Thanks for the explanation.

Well, I fly on PS4, so maybe the update process is different, since I use just the website interface thingy a.k.a. dashboard.
 
Data finally all imported into SQLite! I can start doing some interesting stuff now.

Here's a fun one, the Top 10 systems by total number of bodies (not including belts). The first three are already POI or proposed POI.

What I see currently:

Out of 82,772 total water giants, 1,389 of them are directly orbiting a neutron star (1.68%).

Out of 269,416 total ammonia worlds, 2,707 of them directly orbit a neutron star (1%).
 
That could be due to duplicate or misplaced data, then. There's a fair amount of junk data that came from EDSM previously, which has since been cleared up on their side. I did a comparison against the full bodies dump from EDSM, and did a "soft delete" on my side to clean a lot of this up, but most of my spreadsheet scripts aren't checking for that yet. The good news is that I can start using that, which will help with the spreadsheet accuracy. The bad news is that the large dump isn't available anymore, so future junk data won't be detectable that way.
 
Do you have the name of this system? edastro seems to think it's Flyiedge KE-E d13-416, but it only has an icy body.

Indeed, that was what I had, from Ord's "valuable systems" dump. I guess I may need to recheck some of those results.

I ran my own query on this and was not able to find any matches. Updating the first page.

I'm altering that spreadsheet now, to check on the deletion state. I've also tweaked the main scripts that are used for general planet or star lists, so a lot of other spreadsheets should remove the erroneous entries too. There's still more to go, which I'll look into later, but this gets the low hanging fruit.

I'll upload the corrected "valuable systems" spreadsheet as soon as it's ready. The others that are affected by this change will update on schedule. I think the next run is Monday.

EDIT: That spreadsheet is updated, and "Flyiedge KE-E d13-416" is no longer in it.

@Orvidius: Do you mean the old "bodies.json" file with "large dump"? If yes, do you know the reasons why it isn't available anymore?

Huh, somehow I missed this question back then. He removed it due to running out of disk space. Since then he re-enabled it for a few months, and now it's down again.
 
Ah ok, even though the new .gz-file was considerably smaller … well, my newest data is from mid march or so … I guess I have to fly with that for a while.
