Our Data Quality Evaluation

Evaluating at the Country Level

To ensure that our POI data is of the highest quality, we start by evaluating each country individually. This meticulous assessment involves several key criteria:

• Market Research: We conduct extensive market research to benchmark the brand and industry coverage within a specific country. This involves identifying the presence of well-known brands and assessing industry prominence.

• Number of POIs: We assess our total number of POI within a country. This includes a thorough examination of data distribution across different industries and categories.

For example, we monitor our brand data quality for every country:

country_code	brand	coverage_status	market_research_value	POI Count	Coverage %
US	SUBWAY	in coverage	21 148	21 226	100%
US	STARBUCKS	in coverage	15 444	15 540	101%
US	MCDONALD'S	in coverage	13 438	13 404	100%
US	DUNKIN'	in coverage	9 260	8 968	97%
US	TACO BELL	in coverage	7 823	7 925	101%
US	PIZZA HUT	in coverage	6 600	6 720	102%

Assigning Quality Grades:

Once we've gathered this valuable information, we use it to assign a quality grade to the country in question. This grade is determined by our internal quality thresholds, which are carefully designed to meet the highest industry standards.

Country Offering:

A country enters our “offering” list when it successfully meets our established quality thresholds, which are stringent quality standards, guaranteeing that you will receive accurate, up-to-date, and comprehensive POI data.

Why Our Approach Matters:

Our meticulous approach to selecting our POI products by country is crucial for several reasons:

• Accuracy: By evaluating data quality at the country level, we ensure that the POI information you receive is highly accurate and reliable.

• Relevance: Our market research helps us understand the local business landscape, ensuring that our data covers the most pertinent and sought-after information.

• Comprehensiveness: Our assessment of the number and distribution of POI ensures that you have access to a comprehensive dataset, empowering you with valuable insights.

At Echo, we take pride in our commitment to data quality and our dedication to providing you with the best POI products available. Our systematic selection process is just one example of how we prioritize precision and accuracy in everything we do.
