Business closures and (re)openings in real time using Google Places / by Thibaut Duprey, Daniel E. Rigobon, Philip Schnattinger, Artur Kotlicki, Soheil Baharian and T. R. Hurd. : FB3-5/2022-1E-PDF
"We present a new method to measure business opening and closure rates using real-time information from Google Places, the dataset behind the Google Maps service. Our Canadian application confirms the importance of temporary closures and reopenings during the COVID-19 pandemic. Over 50% of the temporarily closed food and retail businesses during the April 2021 lockdown reopened by the end of September.

Our framework provides policy-makers with a tool for the timely monitoring of business dynamics"--Abstract, page ii.
