flowmachine.features.subscriber.unique_location_counts

Source: flowmachine/features/subscriber/unique_location_counts.py

Class for UniqueLocationCounts. UniqueLocationCounts counts the total number of unique locations for each subscriber. Each Subscriber will have an integer that shows how many different locations it visited

Class UniqueLocationCounts

UniqueLocationCounts(start, stop, *, spatial_unit: Union[flowmachine.core.spatial_unit.CellSpatialUnit, flowmachine.core.spatial_unit.GeomSpatialUnit] = CellSpatialUnit(), hours: Optional[Tuple[int, int]] = None, tables='all', subscriber_identifier='msisdn', ignore_nulls=True, subscriber_subset=None)
Source: flowmachine/features/subscriber/unique_location_counts.py

Class that defines counts of unique locations for each subscriber. Each subscriber is accompanied by the count of unique locations.

Attributes

Parameters

  • start: str

    iso format date range for the beginning of the time frame, e.g. 2016-01-01 or 2016-01-01 14:03:01

  • stop: str

    As above

  • spatial_unit: typing.Union, default CellSpatialUnit()

    Spatial unit to which subscriber locations will be mapped. See the docstring of make_spatial_unit for more information.

  • hours: typing.Optional, default None

    subset the result within certain hours, e.g. (4,17) This will subset the query only with these hours, but across all specified days. Or set to 'all' to include all hours.

  • tables: str, default 'ALL'

    schema qualified name of the table which the analysis is based upon. If 'ALL' it will pull together all of the tables specified as flowmachine.yml under 'location_tables'

  • subscriber_identifier: {'msisdn', 'imei'}, default 'msisdn'

    Either msisdn, or imei, the column that identifies the subscriber.

  • subscriber_subset: flowmachine.core.Table, flowmachine.core.Query, list, str, default None

    If provided, string or list of string which are msisdn or imeis to limit results to; or, a query or table which has a column with a name matching subscriber_identifier (typically, msisdn), to limit results to.

  • ignore_nulls: bool, default True

    ignores those values that are null. Sometime data appears for which the cell is null. If set to true this will ignore those lines. If false these lines with null cells should still be present, although they contain no information on the subscribers location, they still tell us that the subscriber made a call at that time.

Examples

>>> ulc = UniqueLocationCounts('2016-01-01', '2016-01-04',                             spatial_unit=make_spatial_unit('admin', level=3),                             method='last', hours=(5,17))     >>> ulc.head(4)             subscriber                unique_location_counts         0   038OVABN11Ak4W5P    3         1   0987YDNK23Da6G5K    4         2   0679FBNM35DsTH3K    3
