It turns out this causes problems, as the spherical diffusion model does not handle missing data gracefully.  The analysis will run, but any dialects will be assigned a meaningless location, potentially skewing the results.\r\n\r\nIs it sensible to have dialects inherit the location of their parent language?  This is an easy fix to code, I just don't know if it is necessarily a safe assumption to make for all of Glottolog.\r\n\r\nMore generally, does every languoid classed as a \"language\" have a location, or are some missing?  If there are some languages with no location, we may be forced to drop them from analyses with a geographic component.  Either that or we'll have to edit the spherical diffusion model to handle this situation more gracefully (which *may* not be too hard)."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/lmaurits/BEASTling/issues/comments/223459008","html_url":"https://github.com/lmaurits/BEASTling/issues/77#issuecomment-223459008","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/lmaurits/BEASTling/issues/77","id":223459008,"user":{"login":"lmaurits","id":3752655,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/3752655?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/lmaurits","html_url":"https://github.com/lmaurits","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lmaurits/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lmaurits/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lmaurits/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lmaurits/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lmaurits/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lmaurits/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lmaurits/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lmaurits/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/lmaurits/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-06-03T00:13:03Z","updated_at":"2016-06-03T00:13:03Z","body":"Okay, great, I will try to make this fix today.
