Description
The dataset contains two folders, one for the GIS data and one for the statistics data of the paper. The GIS data contain five attribute tables, for Norway, Sweden, Germany, Italy and Spain, including the total COVID-19 incidence per municipality/country for the first 16 months of the pandemic, the Köppen-Geiger climate zone number for each municipality/county, the mean Continentality Index value for each municipality/county, and the mean or max degree of urbanisation for each municipality/county. The data were derived in ArcGIS Pro 2.8. The statistics data contain .csv data files, SAS program/log/output that we used to statistically analyse the data derived in GIS.
