Measurement

The Measurement editions of the Index desk: index results by country and ADM level, data releases, method changes, coverage and the gaps in the data.

01Measurement

What the Index desk reports.

Measurement: the index results by country and ADM level, the data releases they come from, method changes, coverage and the gaps in the data. No index value is published until an edition is released from a governed evidence cut.

ChapterFrameWhat it will report
1. What is measuredThe questionThe indicators, hazards and indices in scope, with their definitions and sources.
2. ResultsFindingsThe index results of the edition, each with its scale, interval, class and source; empty is not zero.
3. Results by system and ADM levelBy system and sectorResults by system and by administrative level, from the country (ADM0) to ADM1 and ADM2 where boundaries are licensed.
4. Coverage and data gapsRisk and capabilityWhere data is missing, dated or withheld, by country, ADM level and indicator.
5. SensitivityScenarioHow results move when weights, sources or methods change under stated assumptions.
6. Readings from the other desksReadingsReadings from the other desks: cross-references to their editions for the same scope, not copies of them.
7. Data agendaAgendaThe sources, releases and method changes the next cycle takes up.
8. Method and release notesIn depthThe method of the edition, the data releases it uses and every change since the last release.
02Levels

From the country to ADM2.

Each country profile of the Index is structured from the country (ADM0) down to first- and second-level subdivisions (ADM1 and ADM2) where licensed boundaries exist. Boundaries come from geoBoundaries gbOpen (William & Mary geoLab), with a licence gate per country; vector tiles are keyed to ISO3, ADM1, ADM2 or H3 cells.

Every quarter closes on a sealed evidence cut. Contributions received before the cut are reviewed for that edition; later ones wait for the next.
