Add Error margin in the metrics output / exporter #557

damienfernandes commented 4 months ago

Problem

In prometheus, we don't scrape error margin for collected impacts values.

Solution

To be able to explicit result, I will be interesting to add error margin and be able to display it in grafana. Absolut Unvertainty will be calculated with rawdata bloc (min, max, value) for every impacts

Alternatives
