metadata for evaluation results #82

Open wsavran opened 3 years ago

wsavran commented 3 years ago

we should have an open discussion about what quantities of the forecast should appear as meta data in an evaluation result file. this comes from the fact that im working with !~1750 forecasts all having different start times, and it made me wonder how much of the forecast metadata should be associated with the result .json file.

wsavran commented 3 years ago

this could be considered at the forecast level in the form of summary statistics. these would include things like

  1. min / max magnitude
  2. min / max event count
  3. p5, p50, and p95 percentiles of number distribution
  4. start / end times
