Split out population fields from property #183

Closed johcarter closed 1 month ago

johcarter commented 2 months ago
## Description

The integration work for Cyber and Liability will create a framework in OED to have different variants of location and account by exposure or policy class See #182

For humanitarian/development sector use cases, does it make sense to split out population fields from property into a separate file as an exposure class so that it is not necessary to include required property fields that are not relevant?

Or is there a need to have both property and population fields together in one file?

Reasons for change

Restructure of specification to support multiple exposure / policy classes ## Scope of change - [X ] Location File - [ ] Accounts File - [ ] Reinsurance Scope - [ ] Reinsurance Info ## Impact of change It would be a breaking change to take the LocPop and Occupant* fields out of property location file. ## Data type, default values, are blanks allowed, list valid values | **Field Name** | **Data type** | **Default values** | **Blanks allowed** | **Valid values** | |--------------------------|----------------|---------------------|----------------------|-------------------| LocPopNumber | nvarchar() | | NO | [0,) | NumberOfOccupants | int | 0 | YES | [0,) | OccupantUnderfive | int | 0 | YES | [0,) | OccupantOver65 | int | 0 | YES | [0,) | OccupantAge5to65 | int | 0 | YES | [0,) | OccupantFemale | int | 0 | YES | [0,) | OccupantMale | int | 0 | YES | [0,) | OccupantOther | int | 0 | YES | [0,) | OccupantUrban | int | 0 | YES | [0,) | OccupantRural | int | 0 | YES | [0,) | OccupantPoverty | int | 0 | YES | [0,) | OccupantRefugee | int | 0 | YES | [0,) | OccupantUnemployed | int | 0 | YES | [0,) | OccupantDisability | int | 0 | YES | [0,) | OccupantEthnicMinority | int | 0 | YES | [0,) | OccupantTemporary | int | 0 | YES | [0,) | OccupantPeriod | tinyint | 0 | YES | [0,8] |

As discussed with Stu Fraser, population data would normally be recorded alongside property information for development sector use cases, so there is no value in splitting population fields into a separate location file.

We will keep these fields in with property.
