Format for submitted data #32

Open RobertWalraven opened 4 years ago

RobertWalraven commented 4 years ago

I'm a member of the ensemble contributors for the weekly CDC death projections and would like to add my model projections to this site. I'm looking for information on the format you want for the data but can't find a description. I've looked at some of the contributed data and there seems to be no consistency to the format of the data and none of the submissions seems similar to the format used for the CDC data. It looks like everyone is using whatever they want. I don't understand how you can create an ensemble forecast without a format for contributed data. Can you explain what you would like to see?

BTW, several contributors to the CDC death data have been making projections for the CDC for every county in the US for a while now. I looked at my own data (http://rwalraven.com/covid19/data) and it shows no evidence of the problems mentioned by The Sacramento Bee this morning in the article about how the CalCAT county data is way off.
