How the comparison is calculated.
The newest complete public window ends seven days ago and covers 30 calendar days. It is compared with the immediately preceding 30-day period using the same license class, issued-status, expiration, and deterministic classification rules.
Counts are market signals, not evidence of openings, equipment, violations, purchasing intent, or unmet vendor needs. Read the full method.
