# How does scoring setup work in TargomoLOOP?

## Scoring in TargomoLOOP helps you combine multiple data points into a single score (0–100) to evaluate and compare locations.

#### What is scoring?

Scoring converts different datasets (e.g., population, income, footfall) into a **standardized score** and combines them using weights.

- **0 = worst value**
- **100 = best value**

This allows you to:

- Compare locations easily
- Visualize results as **heatmaps**
- Build **data-driven expansion decisions**

---

#### Step-by-step: How to set up scoring

### 1. Select datasets

1. Go to **Settings**
2. Click on **Score**
3. Click on **Add data**
4. Select the **datasets** you want to include (e.g., population, income, demographics)
5. Click Next

---

### 2. Configure scoring parameters

After selecting datasets, you need to define how each one contributes to the score.

---

### Key parameters explained

#### 1. Min and Max values

Defines the scoring range:

- **Minimum value → score 0**
- **Maximum value → score 100**

Any value:

- Below min → stays 0
- Above max → stays 100

👉 You can:

- Auto-calculate using **“My Network”**
- Or manually override for more control

---

#### 2. Logic (More is better / Less is better)

Defines how the metric should behave:

- **More is better** → e.g., population, income, footfall
- **Less is better** → e.g., competition, rent, vacancy

---

#### 3. Weight

Defines **importance of each dataset** in the final score.

- Higher weight = more influence
- Lower weight = less influence

---

#### How the final score is calculated

- Each dataset is normalized to **0–100**
- Then combined using **weights**
- Result = **final score per location**

---

#### Best practices

### 1. Use realistic Min/Max

- Avoid extreme values → leads to flat scores
- Use your **network data** for better calibration

---

### 2. Keep datasets meaningful

- Don’t add too many variables
- Focus on **what actually drives your business**

---

### 3. Balance weights

- Avoid giving everything equal weight by default
- Prioritize key drivers (e.g., footfall for retail)
