Datacard for Congo, Rep. Digital Development Indicators (1960-2024)

This dataset contains a time-series of key digital development indicators for Congo, Rep., spanning from 1960 to 2024. The data has been aggregated from multiple sources, cleaned, and processed into a single, analysis-ready CSV file.

The raw data was sourced from The World Bank data portal. The original files were provided in Excel (.xls) format.

  • Temporal Coverage: 1960-2024
  • Geographic Coverage: Congo, Rep.
  • Format: Comma-Separated Values (CSV)

Data Points (Features)

The dataset includes the following digital development indicators, with 'Year' serving as the primary date column:

  1. fixed_broadband_subscriptions_per_100_people_: Fixed broadband subscriptions (per 100 people)
  2. individuals_using_the_internet_of_population_: Individuals using the Internet (% of population)
  3. mobile_cellular_subscriptions_per_100_people_: Mobile cellular subscriptions (per 100 people)

Data Preparation & Missing Data Handling

The raw data was processed using a Python script to transform it into a clean, structured format. The key steps were:

  1. Filtering: The data was filtered to include only records for 'Congo, Rep.'.
  2. Reshaping: The original wide-format data (years as columns) was melted into a long format.
  3. Merging: Data from all indicator files was merged into a single DataFrame on 'Year'.
  4. Handling Missing Data: Missing values (NaN) were filled using a two-step strategy: linear interpolation followed by a back-fill to handle any remaining gaps at the start of the series.
