# MEmilio Data #

This directory contains data used for real-world epidemiological simulations. Additional datasets (e.g., daily reported COVID‑19 data for Germany) can be added using the MEmilio Epidata Package [MEmilio Python library](../pycode/memilio-epidata/README.rst).

## Directory Structure
The data is organized by region. Within a region folder (e.g., Germany), you will find the following subdirectories:

- **contacts**: Contact matrices, i.e., the number of daily contacts between persons of different age groups.
- **mobility**: Number of daily commuters and other travelers moving between regional entities.
- **pydata**: Data generated using the `Epidata` package from the MEmilio library.
This directory contains a minimal set of data used for real-world epidemiological simulations. To separate model code from data, data has been removed on purpose. Additional datasets (e.g., daily reported COVID‑19 data or mobility matrices for Germany) can be added using the MEmilio Epidata Package [MEmilio Python library](../pycode/memilio-epidata/README.rst).
