Research Lab

What SwimSignal is investigating, the evidence so far, and what it does not yet show.

Each exhibit asks one question, shows the real data behind the answer, and keeps exploratory findings apart from results that were stated in advance. Missing data is drawn as missing.

What the model said against what the samples found: catches, misses and false alarms at every bathing water, beside simple alternatives.

Rain, overflow spills, E. coli samples, water temperature and the satellite index on one timeline and map, for Windermere and the Wharfe at Ilkley. Gaps drawn as gaps; a link and a CSV of the rows shown.
