[WhoScored] "qualifiers" and "satisfiedEventsTypes" definition list #259

Closed randomcrit2020 closed 1 year ago

randomcrit2020 commented 1 year ago

Is there a list of definitions of "qualifiers" and "satisfiedEventsTypes" for the whoscored data ? for example, I'm trying to know what does the following list means.

"satisfiedEventsTypes": [ 91, 212, 36, 37, 217 ],

Here is a list with qualifiers: https://github.com/tomh05/football-scores/blob/master/data/reference/opta-qualifiers.json I am not entirely sure what the "satisfiedEventTypes" are, but I believe they are used to tag events with subcategories such as "blocked shot", "shot off target", ... I believe you can infer the same from a combination of the action type, action result, and qualifiers. I've never used the "satisfiedEventTypes" attribute.

I found https://github.com/jokecamp/FootballData/blob/7865378fe97d8ed973c7e6b0dbcf8384b150cabe/random_docs/Opta%20Playground-%20F24%20documentation.docx and https://github.com/jokecamp/FootballData/blob/7865378fe97d8ed973c7e6b0dbcf8384b150cabe/random_docs/Opta-f24_appendices.docx but I wonder if there is anything newer.

Thanks for sharing. I am not aware of anything that is more up-to-date.
