IDEA regularly updates the database as new data become available. Examples of IDEA sources include the Demographic and Health Surveys, STATcompiler; UN Food and Agriculture Organization, Food Price Index; IMF, Direction of Trade Statistics; Millennium Challenge Corporation; and World Bank, World Development Indicators. The database can be queried by navigating to the site displayed in the Home Page field below.

The International Macroeconomic Data Set provides data from 1969 through 2030 for real (adjusted for inflation) gross domestic product (GDP), population, real exchange rates, and other variables for the 190 countries and 34 regions that are most important for U.S. agricultural trade. The data presented here are a key component of the USDA Baseline projections process, and can be used as a benchmark for analyzing the impacts of U.S. and global macroeconomic shocks.

The World Development Indicators from the World Bank contain over a thousand annual indicators of economic development from hundreds of countries around the world.

Here's a list of the available indicators along with a list of the available countries.

For example, this data includes the life expectancy at birth from many countries around the world:

Country Risk Assessment helps businesses to confidently evaluate global markets by incorporating country evaluation into strategic planning. Analysing trends over time to forecast and proactively plan for potential market shifts.

Country Risk Assessment is an estimate of the average credit risk of a country’s businesses. It is drawn up based on macroeconomic, financial and political data. It offers: - An indication of a country’s potential influence on businesses’ financial commitments. - Insight into the economic and political environment that could impact credit risk.

Dataset Structure and Content: Assessment Coverage: 20 sample companies with country risk evaluations Geographic Diversity: Multiple countries represented via ISO-3166 alpha2 country codes.

Risk Classification System: The dataset employs a standardized A-E rating scale to categorize country risk levels: A1: Very good macroeconomic outlook with stable political context and quality business climate (lowest default probability) A2: Good macroeconomic outlook with generally stable political environment A3: Satisfactory outlook with some potential shortcomings A4: Reasonable default probability with potential economic weaknesses B: Uncertain economic outlook with potential political tensions C: Very uncertain outlook with potential political instability D: Highly uncertain outlook with very unstable political context E: Extremely uncertain outlook with extremely difficult business conditions (highest default probability)

Application Context: This sample demonstrates how country risk assessments can be systematically documented and tracked over time. Each assessment includes comprehensive evaluations of the macroeconomic environment, political stability, and business climate factors that directly influence payment behavior and default probabilities. The dataset structure allows for both current and historical tracking, enabling trend analysis and comparative risk evaluation across different national markets. It serves as a representative example of how comprehensive country risk data can be organized and utilized for strategic business decision-making. Note: This is sample data intended to demonstrate the structure and capabilities of a country risk assessment system.

The OECD organizes the MEI database using a hierarchical four level subject system of increasing detail, for example: · Production / Commodity Output / Crude Steel / Total Some series are defined just by three levels or fewer, for example: · Interest rates / 90 day rates / Interbank rate The topics listed below correspond to the first OECD subject level. - leading indicators (indicators that run 6-12 months ahead of GNP cycle) - national accounts - national income - production - business tendency surveys - consumer surveys - manufacturing - construction - domestic demand - employment - unemployment - other labour market indicators - labor compensation - producer prices - consumer price index - other prices - monetary aggregates and their components - domestic credit and debt - interest rates - security issues - share prices - currency conversions - external finance - foreign trade - balance of payments - capital and financial accounts - financial accounts - net errors and omissions - world trade

This dataset contains estimates of the socioeconomic status (SES) position of each of 149 countries covering the period 1880-2010. Measures of SES, which are in decades, allow for a 130 year time-series analysis of the changing position of countries in the global status hierarchy. SES scores are the average of each country’s income and education ranking and are reported as percentile rankings ranging from 1-99. As such, they can be interpreted similarly to other percentile rankings, such has high school standardized test scores. If country A has an SES score of 55, for example, it indicates that 55 percent of the countries in this dataset have a lower average income and education ranking than country A. ISO alpha and numeric country codes are included to allow users to merge these data with other variables, such as those found in the World Bank’s World Development Indicators Database and the United Nations Common Database.

See here for a working example of how the data might be used to better understand how the world came to look the way it does, at least in terms of status position of countries.

To create the dataset, the top 10 countries leading in the incidence of COVID-19 in the world were selected as of October 22, 2020 (on the eve of the second full of pandemics), which are presented in the Global 500 ranking for 2020: USA, India, Brazil, Russia, Spain, France and Mexico. For each of these countries, no more than 10 of the largest transnational corporations included in the Global 500 rating for 2020 and 2019 were selected separately. The arithmetic averages were calculated and the change (increase) in indicators such as profitability and profitability of enterprises, their ranking position (competitiveness), asset value and number of employees. The arithmetic mean values of these indicators for all countries of the sample were found, characterizing the situation in international entrepreneurship as a whole in the context of the COVID-19 crisis in 2020 on the eve of the second wave of the pandemic. The data is collected in a general Microsoft Excel table. Dataset is a unique database that combines COVID-19 statistics and entrepreneurship statistics. The dataset is flexible data that can be supplemented with data from other countries and newer statistics on the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to the fact that the data in the dataset are not ready-made numbers, but formulas, when adding and / or changing the values in the original table at the beginning of the dataset, most of the subsequent tables will be automatically recalculated and the graphs will be updated. This allows the dataset to be used not just as an array of data, but as an analytical tool for automating scientific research on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and crisis on international entrepreneurship. The dataset includes not only tabular data, but also charts that provide data visualization. The dataset contains not only actual, but also forecast data on morbidity and mortality from COVID-19 for the period of the second wave of the pandemic in 2020. The forecasts are presented in the form of a normal distribution of predicted values and the probability of their occurrence in practice. This allows for a broad scenario analysis of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and crisis on international entrepreneurship, substituting various predicted morbidity and mortality rates in risk assessment tables and obtaining automatically calculated consequences (changes) on the characteristics of international entrepreneurship. It is also possible to substitute the actual values identified in the process and following the results of the second wave of the pandemic to check the reliability of pre-made forecasts and conduct a plan-fact analysis. The dataset contains not only the numerical values of the initial and predicted values of the set of studied indicators, but also their qualitative interpretation, reflecting the presence and level of risks of a pandemic and COVID-19 crisis for international entrepreneurship.

The Economic Decline Indicator considers factors related to economic decline within a country. For example, the Indicator looks at patterns of progressive economic decline of the society as a whole as measured by per capita income, Gross National Product, unemployment rates, inflation, productivity, debt, poverty levels, or business failures. It also takes into account sudden drops in commodity prices, trade revenue, or foreign investment, and any collapse or devaluation of the national currency. The Economic Decline Indicator further considers the responses to economic conditions and their consequences, such as extreme social hardship imposed by economic austerity programs, or perceived increasing group inequalities. The Economic Decline Indicator is focused on the formal economy – as well as illicit trade, including the drug and human trafficking, and capital flight, or levels of corruption and illicit transactions such as money laundering or embezzlement. Quality/Lineage: The data is downloaded from the above link http://fundforpeace.org/fsi/indicators/e1/ and manipulated only table format keeping the value same for all the countries as the requirement of the Strive database. The map is created based on the values of the country using rworldmap package in R.

United States US: SPI: Pillar 4 Data Sources Score: Scale 0-100 data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by World Bank. The data is categorized under Global Database’s United States – Table US.World Bank.WDI: Governance: Policy and Institutions. The data sources overall score is a composity measure of whether countries have data available from the following sources: Censuses and surveys, administrative data, geospatial data, and private sector/citizen generated data. The data sources (input) pillar is segmented by four types of sources generated by (i) the statistical office (censuses and surveys), and sources accessed from elsewhere such as (ii) administrative data, (iii) geospatial data, and (iv) private sector data and citizen generated data. The appropriate balance between these source types will vary depending on a country’s institutional setting and the maturity of its statistical system. High scores should reflect the extent to which the sources being utilized enable the necessary statistical indicators to be generated. For example, a low score on environment statistics (in the data production pillar) may reflect a lack of use of (and low score for) geospatial data (in the data sources pillar). This type of linkage is inherent in the data cycle approach and can help highlight areas for investment required if country needs are to be met.;Statistical Performance Indicators, The World Bank (https://datacatalog.worldbank.org/dataset/statistical-performance-indicators);Weighted average;

This table provides statistics on Family Composition, Family Income, Housing Mobility, Language, Immigration, Educational Attainment, Household and Dwelling Characteristics for selected indicators. This indicator dataset contains information at both Local Geographic Area (for example, Lacombe, Red Deer - North, Calgary - West Bow, etc.) and Alberta levels. Local geographic area refers to 132 geographic areas created by Alberta Health (AH) and Alberta Health Services (AHS) based on census boundaries. The Federal Census (2016) and National Household Survey (2016) information is custom extracted by Statistics Canada at the local geographic area level. The population of these areas varies from very small in rural areas to large in metropolitan centers. This table is the part of "Alberta Health Primary Health Care - Community Profiles" report published August 2022.

The Annual Economic Survey of Federal Gulf and Atlantic Shrimp Permit Holders collects data about operating expenses and costs of owning and maintaining shrimp vessels. Each spring, surveys are sent by mail to a random sample of 33 of all vessels with federal permits for the harvest of Gulf of Mexico penaeid shrimp or South Atlantic penaeid or rock shrimp. This information is used to assess trends in the financial and economic state of the fisheries, and to determine the economic and social effects of regulations and other factors affecting the Southeast shrimp fisheries. The individual information is confidential and only summary statistics are released to the public.

Municipal Fiscal Indicators is an annual compendium of information compiled by the Office of Policy and Management, Office of Finance, Municipal Finance Services Unit (MFS). Municipal Fiscal Indicators contains the most current financial data available for each of Connecticut's 169 municipalities. The data contained in Indicators provides key financial and demographic information on municipalities in Connecticut. The data includes selected demographic and economic data relating to, or having an impact upon, a municipality’s financial condition. The majority of this data was compiled from the audited financial statements that are filed annually with the State of Connecticut, Office of Policy and Management, Office of Finance. Unlike prior years' where the audited financial information was compiled by OPM, the FY 2020 and beyond information in this edition was based upon the self-reporting by municipalities of their own audited data. Note: This dataset includes annually reported data using three types of years: calendar year, fiscal year, and grand list year. The calendar year spans January 1 to December 31. In Connecticut, the state fiscal year runs from July 1 to June 30, with the numerical year indicating when the fiscal year ends (e.g., fiscal year 2022 ended on June 30, 2022). The grand list year refers to the year municipalities assess property values, which occurs annually on October 1. For example, the property values assessed on October 1, 2020, are referred to as "Grand List Year 2020." However, these values are used to levy property taxes for the next fiscal year, spanning July 1, 2021, to June 30, 2022. In this context, grand list year 2020 corresponds to fiscal year ending 2022. Similarly, mill rates for each year are based on the grand list from two years prior. The most recent edition is for the Fiscal Years Ended 2018-2022 published in September 2024.

General Abstract/Purpose (70 words): Data were collected to assist in cost-benefit analysis of flood mitigation actions that could be taken by the U.S. and Canada to prevent structural damage and associated costs and losses in future flood conditions, including conditions worse than the historical record flooding in spring of 2011. Data were commissioned to revise or fill gaps in estimates from structural damage modeling software commonly used for depth-damage economic assessments of flood impacts. The Summary text that immediately follows this introductory sentence offers overview information, but also includes context and detail that is not present in the Word document ("Principal Indicator Combo SET - REVIEW FINAL v2.docx") that constitutes the main body of this data release, supported by Excel files (that are copied without formatting in csv files for each Excel tab). Lake Champlain is a relatively large lake bordered by New York on the western side and Vermont on the eastern side, whose uppermost region spans the U.S.-Canadian border. The 436 mi^2 (1,130 km^2) lake sits within a 9,277 mi^2 (23,900 km^2) basin, and Champlain’s only drainage point is north into Canada via the Richelieu River into the province of Quebec. About 75% of the Lake Champlain shoreline of New York is within Adirondack State Park, covering all or part of Clinton, Essex, and Washington counties. Of Vermont’s 14 counties, Franklin, Chittenden, and Addison Counties border Lake Champlain, while Grand Isle is surrounded by Champlain and at its northern edge the Canadian border. Development and anthropogenic modifications, especially over the last 50 years, have converted wetlands, changed the timing and flows of water, and increased impervious surface area including new residences in floodplains on both sides of the border. Occasionally there is damaging flooding, with significant economic damages in New York, Vermont, and Quebec. With flood stage at 99.57’ (30.35m) and major flooding from 101.07’ (30.81m) over sea level, a 101.4’ (30.91m) flood in 1993 broke the previous recorded high flood in 1869. Following the third heaviest recorded snow, almost no seasonal snowmelt, then heavy rains, the spring of 2011 brought record flooding more than one foot over the 1993 record to 102.77’ (31.32m), expanding the lake’s area by 66 mi^2 (106.2 km^2, or about 5.8%). From reaching flood stage to peak and then returning to a lake level below flood stage took around six weeks. Wind-to-wave-driven erosion was up to 5 feet (1.5m) above static lake elevation in some areas. The record flood height (102.77’) is often reported as 103.07’ or 103.27’ in Burlington, owing to different vertical and horizontal datums and digital elevation models (DEMs), and some wave action. In a 1976 flood the U.S. side incurred more than 50% of the economic damages, but in 2011, Quebec experienced some 80% of structural and economic damages estimated at $82 million. Tropical Storm Irene hit the area in August of 2011 and did far more damage on the American side, for example spurring $29 million in home and business repair loans for damage across 12 of Vermont’s 14 counties. Co-reporting across the two events for 2011 confounded some data, making it impossible to separately identify spring flooding numbers. Following the Boundary Waters Treaty between the U.S. and Canada in 1909, from 1912 the International Joint Commission (IJC) handles boundary water issues between the two countries. The IJC Lake Champlain Richelieu River (LCRR) Study Project is a bi-national (U.S., Canada) multi-agency effort to assess flood risk and flood mitigation options as they affect potential structural damages and wider non-structural damages that include secondary economic, community, and psychological effects. Key economic parts of the report to the IJC LCRR Study Board are calculated using a new tool developed for the study project, an Integrated Socio-Economic-Environmental (ISEE) model, with forecasting for damages up to 105.57’ flood (105.9’, or 106’ [32.3m] for short, by alternative datum and DEMs, as apply in some of the modeling and estimations herein). There is also a Collaborative Decision Support Tool (CDST) that also processes non-structural economic damages, costs, or losses as inputs. CDST is a pared-down version of ISEE that applies historical estimates but does not project outcomes for higher floods in the future. Outputs from this data release are inputs to the ISEE or the CDST for calculations of the benefit-to-cost ratios projected to follow different structural interventions. For example adding a weir in the Richelieu River yielded a greater-than-one benefit-to-cost ratio in late-stage modeling, whereas a dam on either side, or an entirely new canal on the Canadian side, were never entertained as cost feasible or even appropriate. USGS economists were contracted to supply economic “principal indicators” for potential U.S.-side depth-damage effects from lake-rise flooding. The scope of this analysis is limited by several factors associated with the objectives of the IJC LCRR Study Board. Damages from tributary flooding were defined out of a project focused on joint-management options for mitigating flood effects, as tributary flows would be managed only by the U.S. Uncommonly low Lake Champlain levels were also ultimately considered as a stakeholder concern (the weir option also addressed this concern). It is standard to model economic damages to structures and related economic costs due to flooding using the FEMA-designed Hazus®-MH (Multi-Hazard) Flood Model of structural damages (https://www.fema.gov/flood-maps/products-tools/hazus; the Hazus-MH Technical Manual, 2011, 569pp, which explains definitions and parameterization of the tool rather than use of the tool itself, is a frequently referred source here). “Hazus” (tool) modeling is used in the LCRR Study Board research to estimate structural damages at different flood depths, and the primary work presented in this data release estimates depth-damage values for “Principal Indicators” (PIs) that were defined to supplement or alternatively estimate results from applying Hazus, where gaps exist or where straight Hazus values may be questionable in the LCRR context. A number of Principal Indicators were estimated on the Canadian and U.S. sides, where no PIs include any estimates for repair of structural damage, as those calculations are done separately using the Hazus tool (or the ISEE model application with Hazus outputs as inputs). In the final list, the USGS team produced estimates for six PIs: temporary lodging costs, residential debris clean-up and disposal, damage to roads and bridges, damage to water treatment facilities, income loss from industrial or commercial properties, and separately and specifically recreation sector income loss. So associated with residential damage, the costs of securing emergency and longer-term lodging when a household is displaced by lake-rise flooding are estimated, and the costs of cleaning up and removing and disposing of debris from residential property damage are estimated. In the public sector, costs of clean up and repair of damages to roads and bridges from lake-rise flooding are calculated, as are damages and potential revenue losses from flood mitigation measures and service reductions where public or private water utilities are inundated by lake-rise flooding. In the commercial sector, revenue losses from being closed for business due to flooding are calculated outside of the recreation sector, and then also for the recreation sector as lakeside campgrounds, marinas, and ferry services (where the last is also used for local commercial traffic). All of these PIs are characterized by being little-discussed in the literature. To derive information necessary to bound economic estimates for each of the 6 PIs, consultation with subject-matter experts in New York and Vermont (or at agencies covering these areas) was employed more often than anything in peer-reviewed literature specifically applied. Depth-damage functions that result are not formal mathematical functions, and across the six PIs calculations and results tend to be in increments of one foot or more. Results thus suggest magnitudes of costs that comply with reasonable scenario assumptions for a small but fairly consistent set of flood depths from 99.57’ to 105.57’, where the latter value is almost three feet (1m) above the historic maximum flood. Nothing reported in these estimates is empirically deterministic, or capable of including probabilistic error margins. Simplifying assumptions serve first to actually simplify the calculations and legibility of estimated results, and second to avoid the impression that specifically calibrated empirical estimations are being conducted. This effort offers plausible, logical, reliable, and reproducible magnitudes for estimates, using a method that can be easily modified if better information becomes available for future estimations. Certain worksheets and specific results are withheld to avoid the outright identification of specific businesses (or homes).

The RVI/CVI database is derived from the CanEcumene 3.0 GDB (Eddy, et. al. 2023) using a selection of socio-economic variables identified in Eddy and Dort (2011) that aim to capture the overall state of socio-economic conditions of communities as ‘human habitats’. This dataset was developed primarily for application in mapping socio-economic conditions of communities and regions for environmental and natural resource management, climate change adaptation, Impact Assessments (IAs) and Regional Assessments (RAs), and Cumulative Effects Assessment (CEA). The RVI/CVI is comprised of five sub-indicators: 1) population change, 2) age structure, 3) education levels, 4) employment levels, and 5) real estate values. Index values are based on percentile ranks of each sub-indicator, and averaged for each community, and for three ranked groups: 1) all of Canada, 2) by province, and 3) by population size. The data covers the Census periods of 2001, 2006, 2011 (NHS), 2016, and 2021. The index is mapped in two ways: 1) as ‘points’ for individual communities (CVI), and 2) as ‘rasters’ for spatial interpolation of point data (RVI). These formats provide an alternative spatial framework to conventional StatsCan CSD framework. (For more information on this approach see Eddy, et. al. 2020). ============================================================================================ Eddy, B.G., Muggridge, M., LeBlanc, R., Osmond, J., Kean, C., and Boyd, E. 2023.

Mexico MX: Women Business and the Law Index Score: scale 1-100 data was reported at 88.750 NA in 2023. This stayed constant from the previous number of 88.750 NA for 2022. Mexico MX: Women Business and the Law Index Score: scale 1-100 data is updated yearly, averaging 67.500 NA from Dec 1970 (Median) to 2023, with 54 observations. The data reached an all-time high of 88.750 NA in 2023 and a record low of 55.000 NA in 1974. Mexico MX: Women Business and the Law Index Score: scale 1-100 data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by World Bank. The data is categorized under Global Database’s Mexico – Table MX.World Bank.WDI: Governance: Policy and Institutions. The index measures how laws and regulations affect women’s economic opportunity. Overall scores are calculated by taking the average score of each index (Mobility, Workplace, Pay, Marriage, Parenthood, Entrepreneurship, Assets and Pension), with 100 representing the highest possible score.;World Bank: Women, Business and the Law. https://wbl.worldbank.org/;;1. For the reference period, WDI and Gender Databases take the data coverage years instead of reporting years used in WBL (https://wbl.worldbank.org/). For example, the data for YR2020 in WBL (report year) corresponds to data for YR2019 in WDI and Gender Databases. 2. The 2024 Women, Business and the Law (WBL) report has introduced two distinct datasets, labeled as 1.0 and 2.0. The WBL data in the Gender database is based on the dataset 1.0. This dataset maintains consistency with the indicators used in previous WBL reports from 2020 to 2023. In contrast, the WBL 2.0 dataset includes new areas of childcare and safety. For those interested in exploring the WBL 2.0 dataset, it is available on the WBL website at https://wbl.worldbank.org.

This dataset package is focused on U.S construction materials and three construction companies: Cemex, Martin Marietta & Vulcan.

In this package, SpaceKnow tracks manufacturing and processing facilities for construction material products all over the US. By tracking these facilities, we are able to give you near-real-time data on spending on these materials, which helps to predict residential and commercial real estate construction and spending in the US.

The dataset includes 40 indices focused on asphalt, cement, concrete, and building materials in general. You can look forward to receiving country-level and regional data (activity in the North, East, West, and South of the country) and the aforementioned company data.

SpaceKnow uses satellite (SAR) data to capture activity and building material manufacturing and processing facilities in the US.

Data is updated daily, has an average lag of 4-6 days, and history back to 2017.

The insights provide you with level and change data for refineries, storage, manufacturing, logistics, and employee parking-based locations.

SpaceKnow offers 3 delivery options: CSV, API, and Insights Dashboard

Index Methodology Summary Continuous Feed Index (CFI) is a daily aggregation of the area of metallic objects in square meters. There are two types of CFI indices; CFI-R index gives the data in levels. It shows how many square meters are covered by metallic objects (for example employee cars at a facility). CFI-S index gives the change in data. It shows how many square meters have changed within the locations between two consecutive satellite images.

How to interpret the data SpaceKnow indices can be compared with the related economic indicators or KPIs. If the economic indicator is in monthly terms, perform a 30-day rolling sum and pick the last day of the month to compare with the economic indicator. Each data point will reflect approximately the sum of the month. If the economic indicator is in quarterly terms, perform a 90-day rolling sum and pick the last day of the 90-day to compare with the economic indicator. Each data point will reflect approximately the sum of the quarter.

Where the data comes from SpaceKnow brings you the data edge by applying machine learning and AI algorithms to synthetic aperture radar and optical satellite imagery. The company’s infrastructure searches and downloads new imagery every day, and the computations of the data take place within less than 24 hours.

In contrast to traditional economic data, which are released in monthly and quarterly terms, SpaceKnow data is high-frequency and available daily. It is possible to observe the latest movements in the construction industry with just a 4-6 day lag, on average.

The construction materials data help you to estimate the performance of the construction sector and the business activity of the selected companies.

The foundation of delivering high-quality data is based on the success of defining each location to observe and extract the data. All locations are thoroughly researched and validated by an in-house team of annotators and data analysts.

See below how our Construction Materials index performs against the US Non-residential construction spending benchmark

Each individual location is precisely defined to avoid noise in the data, which may arise from traffic or changing vegetation due to seasonal reasons.

SpaceKnow uses radar imagery and its own unique algorithms, so the indices do not lose their significance in bad weather conditions such as rain or heavy clouds.

The Uneven Economic Development Indicator considers inequality within the economy, irrespective of the actual performance of an economy. For example, the Indicator looks at structural inequality that is based on group (such as racial, ethnic, religious, or other identity group) or based on education, economic status, or region (such as urban-rural divide). The Indicator considers not only actual inequality, but also perceptions of inequality, recognizing that perceptions of economic inequality can fuel grievance as much as real inequality, and can reinforce communal tensions or nationalistic rhetoric. Further to measuring economic inequality, the Indicator also takes into account the opportunities for groups to improve their economic status, such as through access to employment, education, or job training such that even if there is economic inequality present, to what degree it is structural and reinforcing. Quality/Lineage: The data is downloaded from the above link http://fundforpeace.org/fsi/indicators/e2/ and manipulated only table format keeping the value same for all the countries as the requirement of the Strive database. The map is created based on the values of the country using rworldmap package in R.
