Data preview
Dataset card
This dataset from Electric Sheep Africa contains 10 rows of large-hotel room occupancy rates in Mauritius, drawn from MDPA and covering semesters between 2019 and 2023. It is distributed as a CC BY 4.0 licensed Parquet file on Hugging Face Datasets.
What this dataset contains
The release is a small tabular extract focusing on a single indicator, hotel-room occupancy for large hotels in Mauritius, disaggregated by semester. The source is MDPA, with provenance captured in the source_provider, source_dataset, and source_url columns. Coverage spans source_period_start_year through source_period_end_year, both set to 2019 and 2023 respectively in the schema.
Structure and fields
Each row is keyed by indicator_id, country_iso3 ("MU"), and year, with the numeric observation stored in the float64 value column and its unit recorded in the unit field. A dimension_year column distinguishes "Semester 1" and "Semester 2" observations, while indicator_name, country_name, source_period_label, source_resource, source_resource_id, and source_package_id carry descriptive metadata. A retrieved_at timestamp and license_id field document when and under what terms the data was harvested.
How analysts use it
Analysts can pivot the value column by year and dimension_year to build a semester-level occupancy series for Mauritius, or join it with other MDPA-derived series using indicator_id and country_iso3. The dataset is tagged for tabular regression and time-series forecasting, supporting lightweight backtesting or nowcasting exercises. Given the very small row count, it is best treated as a reference benchmark rather than a primary signal for sector or country-level investment decisions.
