Cost of Living Index (Excl. Rent) is a relative indicator of consumer goods prices, including groceries, restaurants, transportation and utilities. Cost of Living Index does not include accommodation expenses such as rent or mortgage. If a city has a Cost of Living Index of 120, it means Numbeo has estimated it is 20% more expensive than New York (excluding rent).

The 2022 Environmental Performance Index (EPI) ranks 180 countries on 40 performance indicators in the following 11 issue categories: air quality, sanitation and drinking water, heavy metals, waste management, biodiversity and habitat, ecosystem services, fisheries, acid rain, agriculture, water resources, and climate change mitigation. These categories track performance and progress on three broad policy objectives, environmental health, ecosystem vitality, and climate change. The EPI's proximity-to-target methodology facilitates cross-country comparisons among economic and regional peer groups. The data set includes the 2022 EPI, component scores, and time-series source data. It is the result of a collaboration of the Yale Center for Environmental Law and Policy (YCELP), Yale University, and the Columbia University Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN).

The Nasdaq Composite Index increased overall following the global financial crisis of 2008. In 2022, the closing year-end value of the Nasdaq Composite Index was *********, a significant decrease compared to 2021. In the following years, however, the Index recovered and grew, closing at ********* points as of December 31, 2024.

This statistic displays a monthly index of consumer confidence in France from January 2021 to January 2022. Index values are calculated from ** subcategories focused on consumer sentiment, such as expectations on the development of domestic unemployment and consumer prices over the upcoming 12 months. An index value above 100 indicates a more optimistic outlook of consumers on the economic situation than the long-term average; an index value below 100 indicates a more pessimistic outlook. In January 2022, consumer confidence in France had ranged at ** index points.

The 2022 Heat Vulnerability Index (HVI) for Greater Sydney aims to combine information on urban heat, built form and population demographics to provide a fine-grained understanding of the spatial distribution of heat vulnerable populations.

The Index combines indicators of heat exposure, sensitivity to heat, and adaptive capacity to produce the composite vulnerability index. The 2022 HVI dataset is built upon the methodology established in the creation of the 2016 Sydney HVI dataset (Sun et al 2018), integrating land cover, urban heat, and demographic data, aggregated to Statistical Area Level 1 (SA1) of the Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS) produced by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS).

Broad comparisons can be made between the 2022 and 2016 HVI datasets, however there are multiple factors that may limit direct comparability over time. This includes variations in underlying datasets, the relative nature of the HVI, and the change in size of the study area between 2016 and 2022. When undertaking comparison it is recommended to examine the changes in the underlying datasets and the absolute values of the heat exposure, sensitivity and adaptive capacity indicators. This approach helps to explain the variations in HVI and informs effective heat mitigation strategies.

The 2022 HVI is most useful at the SA1 scale. It is not recommended to aggregate the HVI dataset to larger scales (i.e. average HVI for a suburb or LGA). Aggregating spatially specific and individual data to geographic areas smooths out local variation, losing locational specificity and population variation. In cases where individual human exposure is of concern, this may either increase or decrease the representation of the actual exposure of a given individual, causing the neighbourhood effect averaging problem (NEAP) (Kwan 2018).

As of 2022, Israel had the highest price level index among listed countries, amounting to 138, with 100 being the average of OECD countries. Switzerland and Iceland followed on the places behind. On the other hand, Turkey and India had the lowest price levels compared to the OECD average. This price index shows differences in price levels in different countries. Another very popular index indicating the value of money is the Big Mac index, showing how much a Big Mac costs in different countries. This list was also topped by Switzerland in 2023.

MODIS (or Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) is a key instrument aboard the Terra (EOS AM) and Aqua (EOS PM) satellites. Terra's orbit around the Earth is timed so that it passes from north to south across the equator in the morning, while Aqua passes south to north over the equator in the afternoon. Terra MODIS and Aqua MODIS are viewing the entire Earth's surface every 1 to 2 days, acquiring data in 36 spectral bands, or groups of wavelengths (see MODIS Technical Specifications). These data will improve our understanding of global dynamics and processes occurring on the land, in the oceans, and in the lower atmosphere. MODIS is playing a vital role in the development of validated, global, interactive Earth system models able to predict global change accurately enough to assist policy makers in making sound decisions concerning the protection of our environment.

Pavement Condition Index is provided by the Department of Transportation for analyzing the conditions of the pavement for all 5,200 lane miles of roadways within the County. Pavement Condition Index or PCI is a numerical expression between 0-100 numerically representing the pavements condition. For example, a PCI of 30 is considered as “poor” whereas a PCI rating of 80 indicates pavement in very good condition. The pavements’ numerical PCI score is developed through an analysis of nineteen (19) discrete pavement distresses (cracking, pot holes, environmental distress, utility cuts, etc.) and ranges from 1-100 with 1 being an absolute failure and 100 representing perfect conditions. This dataset is updated Bi-annually.
