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.
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.
