Table Type Nullable Category In the CSV export SQL Server type
history table (postcode_simd_history, SPD) rank no Scottish Government SIMD yes decimal(6,1)
main table (postcode_simd, SSPL) rank no Scottish Government SIMD yes decimal(6,1)

Provenance (the same in both tables)

Each table runs its own copy of the table-level checks, named .history. and .main..

Where it comes from

Input Field Condition Reaches the row by
data.gov.uk/SG_SIMD_2009/SG_SIMD_2009.dbf (pinned, SHA256 6dde46887ba7…) gaccrank DataZone2001Code = datazone

Scope: the row itself.

What was done to it: copied. The domain rank copied exactly as published; it may end in .5 where zones tie. (code: simd_ingest/core/govscot.py: read_gov_edition)

How it is checked (what each check tests; whether a build passed it is in that build's manifest.json["checks"])

  • source.hash.data.gov.uk/SG_SIMD_2009/SG_SIMD_2009.dbf: the pinned file's SHA256 equals the registry's: the bytes are exactly the ones reviewed
  • govscot.2009v2.columns_present: every declared shapefile column is in the file
  • govscot.2009v2.key_unique: each data zone appears once in the shapefile table
  • join.<table>.gov.2009v2.every_record_matched: every record found its data zone in the edition: no empty cell
  • readback.<table>.attached_values: every attached value in the saved file is looked up again from the sources and equal
  • govscot.2009v2.access_domain.present: the declared domain rank column is in the file
  • govscot.2009v2.access_domain.complete: every zone has a domain rank
  • govscot.2009v2.access_domain.half_units: every domain rank is a whole multiple of 0.5
  • govscot.2009v2.access_domain.range: every domain rank is between 1 and the number of zones
  • join.<table>.domain_ranks_half_units: every joined domain rank is a whole multiple of 0.5
