Hide AdData analysts use areas of roughly equal population — known as Middle Layer Super Output Areas — each with an average of 7,200 people.
They allow a four or five day period after raw data is published for corrections to be made, convert the figure into a figure assuming each area had a population of 100,000 then add the numbers to an interactive map.
Latest numbers available up to October 31 show the number of new tests — using postcodes to identify locations — including seven day case rates and direction of change.
