Missing polygons

Data quality

A source dataset silently omits polygons for some regions (e.g. a boundary file missing a newly incorporated municipality), leaving gaps in cell coverage with no explicit null marker.

Detection

Expected region-id list (from a canonical registry) has entries absent from the delivered geometry set.

Mitigation

  • Reconcile delivered feature ids against a canonical registry every load
  • Alert on any expected id with no matching geometry rather than fail silently

Affected conversions

  • Admin polygonsH3 (max-overlap partition)
  • Admin polygonsH3 (weighted crosswalk)
  • PolygonH3 (intersects)
