census file?

[duuoong]

Can you guys describe the census records dataset in more detail? What do the fields "idx", "bbox" and "count" mean?
Thanks you!

Hi @duongvgm, Did you received an answer about the description of the bbox and count columns in the census data ?

Hi @sarah-marbec
I still have no idea what the fields mean, it would be great to get an answer from you and maybe include the main steps to build those data points.
Thank you very much.

Hi @duongvgm ,
I'm a user of the package, not part of the dev team. From my understanding, the bounding boxes are area which contains the administrative region relative to the census data, and the 'count' column could be the count of building of the administrative region. But this is assumption and I thought you had got the answer in the meantime.

My guess might be the number of pixels in that bounding region that have population. See python source file line 127 data/PopulationDataset.py
