Data Processing

In the lodging industry, the asymmetry of information deepens, bringing up the level of risks, while supply is continuously diversifying and demand is becoming more volatile. The best way to handle this growing level of uncertainties is to secure as many options as possible. Data is the most efficient tool to excavate options.
1. Value of Data
Lobin's comprehensive lodging database aims to help individual lodging establishments respond effectively to lodging market risks through data-driven decisions. In a dynamically changing lodging market, data holds the following significance:
2. Collecting Data

The goal is to ensure that the data can be used for decision-making related to lodging business management and lodging property investment, based on the following principles:
4. Correcting and Estimating
In addition, Lobin corrects errors caused by discrepancies in items or figures among various actual data available, and estimates missing values. Particularly, we estimate missing values using an algorithm developed by ourselves to captures regional and type-specific cyclicality and seasonality.

Correction
Subject
Demand & financial data with different values for the same item
Method
1) Identify independent variables and derive relevant fonctions
2) Independent variable error: replace with the value in confirmed statistics
3) Relevant function error: correct through history & benchmarking analyses
Standard
Correct sellable unit values by establishment and reflect sales volume
Validation
Compare with the sum in the confirmed statistics (same sample, 95% confidence level)
Estimation
Subject
Detailed items of demand & financial data with values missed
Method
1) Identify independent variables for the data item
2) Derive functions for cyclicality and seasonality by region and type
3) Estimate missing value through history & benchmarking analyses
Standard
Correct sellable unit values by establishment and reflect sales volume
Validation
Compare with the sum in the confirmed statistics (same sample, 95% confidence level)
* The history analysis refers to a comparative analysis against previous indicators of the establishment itself, and the benchmarking analysis refers to a comparative analysis against recent indicators of competitive establishments.
