Canonical Mapping Rules

These mappings show how raw survey fields are converted into standardized analytical fields.

Mapping Status Reference
Mapped

Field has been validated and linked to the canonical model. These fields are currently powering dashboard metrics, API responses, opportunity mapping and sandbox analytics.

Detected

Field has been automatically discovered during schema profiling and identified as potentially relevant. Final semantic validation may still be required before inclusion in production analytics.

Production Extension

Future integration target. Represents external datasets such as climate, geospatial, demographic or regulatory sources that can be harmonized into the unified intelligence model.

Why This Matters

EFInA datasets may differ by year, structure, question codes, response format and thematic modules. This harmonization layer ensures that once a dataset is profiled, its important fields are mapped into a stable canonical model. That canonical model then powers the dashboard, API layer, opportunity map and research sandbox without rebuilding the platform for every new survey round.
