Method and limitations

Method and limitations

No missing value is imputed. Classification breaks and colours come from the catalogue, and source-declared suppression remains missing.

The area mean gives every published geographic area equal weight. It is not weighted by population, exposure or area size.

Every source municipality code is contained in the fixed 581-code 2019 domain; the source provides explicit municipality, province and region parents.
