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.

Native NUTS2 value mapped only to exact province-equivalent geography; not a municipality value. Selectors define the source universe and unit.

Default-filter coverage on the exact eleven-code Belgian NUTS-2/province-equivalent domain.
