STRIPED DONKEYWe do the heavy lifting.

How FCTE works

One city.
Connected through time.

Striped Donkey is the marketplace. FCTE™ is the engine behind the connected synthetic cities. Both are Fidelra products. A persistent synthetic resident connects available household, education, employment and health records. Inspect a working example and the evidence behind each association.

Try a connected example.

32 Nairobi residents. Seven joined tables. Run Python and SQL, compare expected results, and trace records to their original profiles.

From evidence to release

Build around persistent relationships.

Follow the path from reference evidence to a documented synthetic city.

  1. 01

    Reference the city

    City, national and global evidence informs the published targets and historical context.

  2. 02

    Generate connected state

    Synthetic entities share documented identities and relationships across the chosen city scope.

  3. 03

    Retain the event context

    Dated lifecycle events carry their supplied time and source context into the connected record.

  4. 04

    Validate the release

    Structural, temporal and realism checks accompany the data. Review their scope and disclosed findings.

  5. 05

    Publish with evidence

    A versioned release brings the records, documentation and release identity together.

Explore the methodology and evidence →

Follow a question

Start with one resident. Look wider.

Use the same synthetic reference to inspect the available records in context.

How do education and work connect?

Read the sequence of learning and employment events around the same synthetic person.

Explore a timeline →

The public interface exposes representative records and relationships. Available coverage varies by city and domain; field guides and domain documentation describe the published scope.

The release package

The data travels with its context.

Use these three resources together when reviewing a release.

Using model outputs

Keep the question within the scope.

Scenario outputs depend on assumptions, calibration, time range and selected mechanisms.

Conditional results need context.

Consequential use needs validation against the intended real-world context. Assess the model against the question and the decision it is meant to support.
