Methodology

Data is scanned from various sources on the web. The row data is grouped by municipality, as the data obtained is disaggregated by local market. Once we have the average prices per municipality, a time window is created to calculate the historical average of prices in that municipality and the deviation. The current average is compared with the historical average and if this deviates in deviations, an alert is activated: Low, Moderate or Severe.
