Disaggregation
----1: . So what you would need is the fraction of e.g. the subgroup of women 30-34 of the total population of a country. Or the fraction of the subgroup of women 30-34 of the total population in the grid cells? --Alexandra Kuhn 17:06, 22 October 2009 (UTC) (type: truth; paradigms: science: comment)
- ←--2: . Fraction of the total population is better than a separate number for each grid cell. The latter is much more difficult to obtain for all grid cells. --Jouni 17:06, 22 October 2009 (UTC) (type: truth; paradigms: science: defence)
----3: . And if then distinguishing between working and non-working, would you want it in fractions of the total population (e.g. 0.001 of the total population are women aged 30-34 and non-working) or in fractions of the fraction of the particular age (e.g. 0.6 of the women aged 30-34 are not working)? --Alexandra Kuhn 17:06, 22 October 2009 (UTC) (type: truth; paradigms: science: comment)
- ←--4: . In this case, fraction of a given age group, not the total population, is easier. --Jouni 17:06, 22 October 2009 (UTC) (type: truth; paradigms: science: defence)
----5: . Which calculations shall I do and which are done from the base? I thought at first I'd give you the data on the grid. But in addition you might want to have the national numbers and percentages as well. And if I do any calculations at all I might as well do all. I am not sure which percentages you would be interested in and if you agree to the procedure I proposed at the meeting and if you want to do the calculations internally etc. --Alexandra Kuhn 17:06, 22 October 2009 (UTC) (type: truth; paradigms: science: comment)
