Open sastoudt opened 5 years ago

sastoudt commented 5 years ago

Functions for breaking geographic units into different geographic units and recalculating quantities of interest [with and without margin of error].

sastoudt commented 5 years ago

sastoudt commented 5 years ago

Means proof of concept done at above link.

This approach will need some specific tests/checks and additional inputs from the current census aggregator outputs.

sastoudt commented 5 years ago

Medians proof of concept done at above link.

Now needs a plan for integration with census aggregator and checks/tests

sastoudt commented 5 years ago

Added warnings for some checks and some documentation
