Building event histories of dead files

Beschreibung:

The dataset ehist.txt is a random sample taken from 'dead' building insurance files recording the history of insurance-relevant events occurring to insured buildings in Baden (Germany) between 1936 and 1993. A 'dead' file corresponds to addresses whose buildings were no longer insured under that address, e.g. because of demolition or property splitting.
