Reporting Lags for Minnesota Data Through Time

By January 5, 2022Commentary1 min read

I initially did some rudimentary analysis on the length of time it takes for a specific day’s events to show up in the data tables, then Dave Dixon did some very intensive tracking and calculations to be more precise.  Here are some charts showing average number of days, over time, that it takes for a certain day’s data to be 95% complete.  You can see that it is generally stable but every now and then we get one of those data dumps.  Weekend effect is also obviously visible.
