Database of all mobility models stored in nomad

Usage

model_db

Format

A named list of nomad_models.

Each model is named with a standard convention. For example, let's look at zmb_cdr_2020_mod_dd_exp. Each of the names in the snake case name convention refer either to the data that the model was fit using or the type of model that was fit.

zmb_cdr_2020_mod_dd_exp:

  • zmb: ISO3C county code for where data was collected.

  • cdr: type of mobility data. cdr = Call Data Record.

  • 2020: year of data collection.

  • mod: signifies the following labels relate to the model.

  • dd: mobility model. dd = Departure-Diffusion.

  • exp: sub-type of mobility model. exp = Exponential.

The naming conventions help with documenting the models and enable linking to mobility_db to query further information about the underlying mobility data the model was fit using. All names in the snake case model name before mod refer to the mobility data.
