Q2. How many addresses can be refined using the indicator?
since the indicator used to derive the conversion weight should correlate as closely as possible to the data to be adjusted between boundary systems (Simpson, 2002) and because more people live at each postcode in urban areas compared with more rural areas (Norman et al., 2003) the count of postcodes can be refined using the number of addresses at each.
Q3. What is the disadvantage of grid approaches?
A disadvantage of grid approaches, especially for planning and health practitioners, is that the locations are no longer familiar places and do not match administrative areas.
Q4. What is the conversion weights between geographies?
The conversion weights between geographies are calculated as the sum of the addresses in the intersection between the source and target units divided by the total number of addresses in the whole of each source unit.
Q5. What is the first step in the construction of a GCT?
Figure 1 about here >The first step in the construction of a GCT is to establish a link between the source and target geographies.
Q6. How many addresses have been linked with the 2001 ward?
Of these, 1,764 addresses have been linked with the 2001 ward Devonport, 4,245 with St Peter & the Waterfront and just 82 addresses with Stoke ward (the small number of crosses identified in figure 2d).
Q7. What is the main debate on the applicability of different indicators?
In addition to the overall debate on the applicability of different indicator variables and on the various schemes which aim to measure relative deprivation for areas, it may be that different indicators relate in different ways to deprivation at different time-points thus making the scores less comparable over time than assumed here.
