Data scenarios and characteristics - sustainabledevelopment-rwanda/sdg-indicators-archived GitHub Wiki
This page (work in progress) will list the data scenarios and characteristics we have discovered as we go through the data acquisition process.
Please note that headline refers the indicators' aggregate/highest level of data
The distinction between statistical and non-statistical indicators is not always clear cut, for example indicators 1.5.3 or 5.a.2 are statistical at a global level and non-statistical, i.e. TRUE
or FALSE
, for individual country reporting.
Indicators can have a single year of data (e.g. 16.2.3)
In cases where we have a single year of data we need an alternative data visulisation method to line charts, which are better for time-series. We have used column charts.
We can use a units
column in the indicator data to separate the data. Doing this looses comparability between the units
on the line chart but enables appropriate y and x axis scaling for the individual units, which can be very different.
Case where disaggregation availability are only applicable when specific criteria are met. Here are some examples:
