Affected Level

Previously, this bounding box was used: Original arbitrary bounding box

To keep things consistent, a different bounding box used with this dataset is defined here: NCAR bounding box

«««< HEAD «««< HEAD 10 - Exist in the dataset 5 - Their userpath intersects NCAR bounding box 4 - Before location falls within NCAR bounding box 3 - Before location falls within an evacuation zone 'C' 2 - Before location falls within an evacuation zone 'B' 1 - Before location falls within an evacuation zone 'A' ======= The user parameter affected_level is now defined as: ======= There is a new parameter called path_affected which is either true or false. If true, it means that at some point, the user’s path intersected with the bounding box (always referring now to the new NCAR bounding box for consistency).

The user parameter affected_level_{before, during, after} is now defined as:

• 100 - Default value (If all 3 are 100, then it implies that path_affected is false.)
• 10 - Location falls WITHIN NCAR bounding box
• 3 - Location falls WITHIN an evacuation zone ‘C’
• 2 - Location falls WITHIN an evacuation zone ‘B’
• 1 - Location falls WITHIN an evacuation zone ‘A’

Note: zones A,B,C are official terms found in the data for NYC. Unsure if these will be consistent among other cities and states. »»»> master
