UNECE improves its online database
Geneva, 25 November 2010 --
The UNECE has released a new and improved version of its online database. It provides high-quality data on Europe, Central Asia and North America. The “Country Overviews” section offers around 50 key economic, social and transport indicators for each UNECE member country. Users can choose data for one or more countries, indicators and periods using simple selection boxes. The result can be displayed on screen or easily downloaded in various formats for further analysis.
The new improvements in the database allow users to view the data using geographical maps, calculate percentages, multiply, divide or subtract values using simple mathematical functions and subscribe to RSS feeds to get notification on any change in the data. The UNECE is also working on better integration of the data with the online services like Google Earth, Google Public Data and Excel web queries.
The database is available in English and Russian and can be accessed at www.unece.org/stats/data
