Method and limitations

Method and limitations

No missing value is imputed. Where colour classes are used, their breaks and colours come from the catalogue; 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.

Only complete years are emitted. The pinned 2026 partial year is retained as an explicit exclusion in QA.

Complete calendar year; daily source rows aggregate to the selected month/sex/age filters.
