DATA GUIDE

Reading the Data Quality page

Look at the score, repairs, flags and licence, then decide if the remaining gaps matter for your use.

For each dataset the page shows: features, provenance count, features with no geometry, repaired geometries, duplicates, flagged records, rejected values, licence clarity, whether it is verified, and the score.

A quick decision guide

  • Score ≥ 90, licence stated: good for most uses.
  • Many repaired geometries: fine for totals, but be careful with fine-scale analysis.
  • Flagged / rejected values: check which fields; original values are kept.
  • Licence not stated: usable for internal work; ask before redistributing.
  • Single epoch: cannot show change.

Not measured by the score: whether the map is right. For that, read the source's own accuracy statement and see the field-plot comparison for Lamu.
