What are metrics?

Understanding Metrics

Metrics let you answer the who, what, and where with respect to an entity and create clusters of areas depending on unique properties. They are the building blocks of Locale and allow you to help gather useful insights​​ faster and hence take quick actions and run more experiments on the ground. They are created upon the entities chosen by the user.

Entities are any moving or stationary component in your business with a location & time component. For instance: orders, riders, users, stores, and so on. Internally, they are used to define the relationships between data sources.

How do we make it happen on Locale? We parse these questions as SQL queries to help you get better and faster insights.

Like areas with high demand at 6:00 PM, areas with the most number of cancellations during the weekend, or routes where the most number of delays occur.
