Handy SQL statements

Handy SQL statements

The following SQL statements are useful for checking imported data and looking for possible error conditions in imported data:

Polling districts with an invalid polling station id:

SELECT * FROM pollingstations_pollingdistrict
WHERE polling_station_id NOT IN
    (SELECT internal_council_id FROM pollingstations_pollingstation
     WHERE council_id='X01000000')
AND council_id='X01000000';

Polling stations with an invalid polling district id:

SELECT * FROM pollingstations_pollingstation
WHERE polling_district_id NOT IN
    (SELECT internal_council_id FROM pollingstations_pollingdistrict
     WHERE council_id='X01000000')
AND council_id='X01000000';

Polling districts which share a station with another district:

SELECT DISTINCT(polling_station_id), COUNT(*)
FROM pollingstations_pollingdistrict
WHERE council_id='X01000000'
GROUP BY polling_station_id
HAVING COUNT(*)>1
ORDER BY COUNT(*);

Polling stations which serve more than one district:

SELECT DISTINCT(polling_district_id), COUNT(*)
FROM pollingstations_pollingstation
WHERE council_id='X01000000'
GROUP BY polling_district_id
HAVING COUNT(*)>1
ORDER BY COUNT(*);

Postcodes containing properties assigned to multiple polling stations:

SELECT DISTINCT(postcode), COUNT(DISTINCT(polling_station_id))
FROM pollingstations_residentialaddress
WHERE council_id='X01000000'
GROUP BY postcode
HAVING COUNT(DISTINCT(polling_station_id))>1;

Order addresses by ONSPD postcode centroid --> station location distance

SELECT
  round((ST_DISTANCE(onspd.location::geography, ps.location::geography)/1000)::numeric, 2) AS distance,
  ra.id,
  ra.address,
  ra.postcode,
  ra.polling_station_id,
  ra.council_id,
  ra.uprn,
  LEFT(ra.postcode, LENGTH(ra.postcode)-3) || ' ' || RIGHT(ra.postcode, 3) AS pcfull2,
  onspd.location,
  ps.internal_council_id,
  ps.postcode,
  ps.address,
  ps.location,
  ps.council_id
FROM pollingstations_residentialaddress ra
JOIN uk_geo_utils_onspd onspd ON onspd.pcds=LEFT(ra.postcode, LENGTH(ra.postcode)-3) || ' ' || RIGHT(ra.postcode, 3)
JOIN pollingstations_pollingstation ps ON ps.council_id=ra.council_id
AND ra.polling_station_id=ps.internal_council_id
WHERE onspd.doterm=''
  AND ps.location IS NOT NULL
  AND ra.council_id='X01000001'
ORDER BY ST_DISTANCE(onspd.location::geography, ps.location::geography) DESC;

Order addresses by doorstep gridref (if held) --> station location distance (often not that useful as the addresses with issues often won't have a doorstep gridref)

SELECT
  round(ST_DISTANCE(ra.location::geography, ps.location::geography)/1000)::numeric, 2) AS distance,
  ra.*,
  ps.internal_council_id,
  ps.postcode,
  ps.address,
  ps.location,
  ps.council_id
FROM pollingstations_residentialaddress ra
JOIN pollingstations_pollingstation ps ON ps.council_id=ra.council_id
AND ra.polling_station_id=ps.internal_council_id
WHERE
  AND ra.uprn!=''
  AND ps.location IS NOT NULL
  AND ra.council_id='X01000001'
ORDER BY ST_DISTANCE(ra.location::geography, ps.location::geography) DESC;
