Team,

As we look at the data, please populate your feature engineering ideas here.

Aggregate weather data to get mean/min/max daily temperatures in 7/14/21/28 days prior to mosquito trap test date. Also get total precipitation in 7/14/21/28 days prior, plus counts of consecutive low precipitation days (i.e. droughts).

Based on reading

few ideas for us to try:

[x] moving averages for all the weather columns
[ ] {traps+lat+long} based clustering , then create a new column for cluster number

Great ideas, Rahul. I think moving averages for weather data may be particularly useful.
