Dataset description

The dataset contains information about how subnational geographical areas cluster with in terms of human mobility measured through Mobile Network Operator (MNO) data, irrespective of the administrative borders. A Mobility Functional Area (MFA) is a dense cluster of highly interconnected regions. For each geographical area, the data consists of an id, the id of the MFA to which the area belongs, the type of MFA, the country and the NUTS3 reference, and the id of the MNO operator (there might be multiple operators per country). The definition of the geographical area change from country to country and varies from census level (ACE), LAU, or other aggregation defined by the corresponing MNO. The shape files are available separately. https://migration-demography-tools.jrc.ec.europa.eu/static/Data/mfa-shapefiles.zip Read more about the European Commission Data4Covid Initiative at EU Science Hub (https://ec.europa.eu/jrc/en/news/coronavirus-mobility-data-provides-insights-virus-spread-and-containment-help-inform-future) and at GSMA Europe (https://www.gsma.com/gsmaeurope/resources/d4c/)

Yes. Selected APIs include a free API quota, so your team can validate coverage, freshness, response shape and workflow fit before asking for a production plan.
Often yes, but usage rights depend on the source license and dataset. We surface source, license and update metadata where available, and can help review terms before a production integration.
Maintained APIs include update metadata where available. For production integrations, we can add history, monitoring and push updates so changes are easier to detect and act on.
Production APIs can add SLA, stable identifiers, versioning support, history, push updates and direct support around the data your product or AI workflow depends on.
