Many people are tempted to collect continuous data and then convert it to discrete or attribute data. For example, you are collecting delivery time for each order.

Discrete Global Grid System (DGGS): A hierarchical spatial framework that partitions the Earth into regular, optimally shaped cells to facilitate efficient data integration and geospatial analysis.

This paper proposes a unifying approach to such analysis for a variety of discrete and continuous outcomes. A class of generalized estimating equations (GEEs) for the regression parameters is proposed ...

Upfront, discrete data capture in synoptic reporting fails when pathologists choose a response not associated with discrete data. We sought to determine the factors associated with this event.
