| Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development STAN OECD Structural Analysis Statistics Annual 1970+ |
Enables analysis of industrial performance at a relatively detailed level of activity across countries. Includes measures of output, labor input, investment and international trade. The industry list, based on ISIC Rev. 3, provides sufficient detail to enable users to highlight high-technology sectors and is compatible with those used in related OECD databases. STAN is primarily based on Member countries' annual national accounts by activity tables and uses data from other sources, such as national industrial surveys and censuses, to estimate any missing detail. Since many of the data points in STAN are estimated, they do not represent official Member country submissions. | Online. |
