HOW TO READ THIS

Volume, rate and reality are different things.

  1. Report volume

    How often a model appears in the community registry.

  2. Representation signal

    Report count divided by the latest matched licensed population.

  3. Real-world risk

    Also depends on location, storage, security, use and reporting—not predicted here.
