Re: Population figures for 2011 missing
Discussing with Samuel and he says the population data for 2010 is of
reasonable quality. We think we can start with simply moving that data from
2010 to 2011, adding a certain growth rate. I think we can make a SQL query
for this rather than creating a system function. Then we can work on
improving the population data as we go.
