COVID19 v3.0.0

Data Update

  • added the data on the number of people who have received at least one vaccine dose
  • added the number of people who are fully vaccinated according to the vaccination protocol
  • added the data on population for all the administrative areas that we provide (more than 12,000)
  • added the latest policy measures by Oxford Covid-19 Government Response Tracker
  • added google and apple mobility identifiers for 3000+ administrative areas
  • added a new set of identifiers to enable geospatial analysis by linking to NUTS codes for Europe or to the GADM database worldwide
  • to compute coordinates, the centroid is replaced by st_point_on_surface, which guarantees to return a point on the surface of the administrative area

Breaking changes

  • the id for level 1 has been replaced with a 8-alphanumeric hash code for consistency with levels 2 and 3
  • the column key_google_mobility now matches the Google place_id
  • the columns key, key_alpha_2, and key_numeric are replaced by key_local; containing the administrative area identifier used by the local authorities regardless of its type, e.g., numeric, 2-alpha code, etc. Codes such as FIPS now include leading zeros
  • the column currency is renamed in iso_currency
  • vintage data are now shipped in SQLite databases instead of ZIP folders
  • vintage data sources are now reported in PDF files, instead of src.csv

Website and documentation

  • new website with interactive visualization of the data and data sources
  • improved documentation
