Notes

The spatially_interpolated variable is a binary indicator distinguishes between prices that are directly measured or estimated for a specific location at which prices are measured in other time periods, and those derived solely through spatial interpolation. When spatially_interpolated is set to true (or 1), it indicates that the price has been calculated using an inverse distance weighted interpolation method, based on data and estimates from nearby market locations. This is crucial for understanding the precision and context of each price point. The data is likely more accurate for the specific locations where data is or has been measured, while spatially interpolated prices provide estimations based only on surrounding data, useful for areas without direct measurements. This variable is key for assessing the reliability and geographical relevance of the price data.
