glx coverage
Show source coverage matrix for a person
Synopsis
Display a checklist of expected records for a person and which ones are present.
Generates a source coverage matrix based on the person's birth and death years, showing which census records, vital records, and other documents have been found versus which are still missing.
Record categories:
- Census: US federal census records the person should appear in
- Vital: Birth, death, and marriage records
- Other: Probate, land, military, and church records
Missing high-priority records are flagged to guide research efforts.
The person argument can be an exact entity ID or a name substring.
