Vividata’s Vivintel Canadian Cannabis Study is a national survey stratified by province, age, and gender, and is weighted by Statistics Canada’s population of the age 19 and over. Combining Vividata’s Canadian Cannabis Study with our geo-demographic data, household spending data, and CanaCode lifestyle clusters, we built adaptive predictive models for each variable and transformed responses to the survey into a data product “Consumer Cannabis Attitude and Usage Patterns” at the 6-digit postal code level with 330+ variables. Stepwise dimension reduction/deep learning techniques were used to consolidate information into effective predictors.
