THE REGIONAL SPECIMEN
Two skies remain deliberately separate.
The bright field describes newly appearing, occupation-coded online adverts. The outer field describes filled jobs. Their difference is not automatically a shortage, surplus or cause.

THE REGIONAL BOUNDARY
A location field is not a judgement about its people.
Named official series, disclosed source month and records carrying usable regional and occupation coding.
Online advertisements do not include every route into work, and recent occupation coding is incomplete.
Regional differences are descriptive. Causal claims require separate evidence and review.

The map shows where requests gather. It does not explain why until evidence can carry the explanation.
