Closed AlanORB closed 3 years ago

AlanORB commented 3 years ago

image Lately, we have been noticing that the ECI values for subnational cubes aren't doing great and this might be a signal that the subnational method has a bug

AlanORB commented 3 years ago

for instance, for russia all values go between 0.4 and -1.2, which dont make sense

@AlanORB can you close this issue with a summary about the problem?

For smaller countries the ECI endpoint wasn't giving us results that seemed fine, such as Aysen as the most complex region of Chile, we met with Cesar and Felipe to validate the results and came into conclusion that it was the quality of data which gave us bad results, considering that for bigger countries the results were looking good.
