Product CPC Sector Reporting institutional sector Frequency of observation Time interval at which observations occur over a given time period. Time period Timespan or point in time to which the observation actually refers. Reference area Reporting Country in ISO code (The country, or geographical/political group of countries that the measured economic phenomen on relates to) Observation value The value of the observation Confidentiality status Information about the confidentiality status of the object to which this attribute is attached. Observation status 1 Information on the quality of a value or an unusual or missing value. Observation status 2 Information on the quality of a value or an unusual or missing value. Observation status 3 Information on the quality of a value or an unusual or missing value. Observation status 4 Information on the quality of a value or an unusual or missing value.

Footnotes Additional information on specific aspects of each observation, such as how the observation was computed/estimated or details that could affect the comparability of this data point with others in a time series. Frequency Indicates rate of recurrence at which observations occur (e.g. monthly, yearly, biannually, etc.). Location Refers to a disaggregation within the Reference Area the data alludes; normally National (total), Urban or Rural - although additional disaggregations are possible within an area (e.g. subUrban). Nature of data points Information on the production and dissemination of the data (e.g.: if the figure has been produced and disseminated by the country, estimated by international agencies, etc.) Reference Area Reference Area: Specific areas (e.g. Country, Regional Grouping, etc) the observed values refer to. Reference areas can be determined according to different criteria (e.g.: geographical, economic, etc.). Series The phenomenon or phenomena to be measured in the data set. The word SERIES is used for consistency with the term used in the MDG Database. SERIES are all the official MDG series and background series currently in the MDG Database. Sex Gender condition: male or female. This dimension applies only if data can be dissaggregated by sex. Source details Information on the name and specific details of each observation's data source. Both the sources for the numerator and denominator could be specified here. Source type Type of data source: survey, administrative records, census or other. Details about the source, if available, could be provided in the free-text attribute SOURCE_DETAIL. Time period details When TIME_PERIOD refers to a date range, this attribute is used to provide METADATA on the actual range the observation refers to (e.g. for period '2001-2003' TIME_PERIOD would be 2002 but the actual dates --2001-2003-- would be expressed here). Time period Reference date - or date range - the observed value refers to (usually different from the dates of data production or dissemination). For MDG data exchange it is usually expressed as a four-digit year (e.g.: 1995) so, if the observation refers to a period of time (range), details about such period should be specified in the attribute TIME_DETAIL Units of measurement Dimension by which the series are described (e.g.: percentage, USD, etc.) Unit multiplier Exponent in base 10 that multiplied by the observation numeric value gives the result expressed in the unit of measure. Observation Value Observation value SDG Concept Scheme Concept Scheme for SDG Indicators Frequency of observation Time interval at which observations occur over a given time period. Reference area Country or geographic area to which the measured statistical phenomenon relates. Sex State of being male or female. Age Length of time that an entity has lived or existed. Education level Highest level of an educational programme the person has successfully completed. Occupation Job or position held by an individual who performs a set of tasks and duties. Time period Timespan or point in time to which the observation actually refers. Observation status Information on the quality of a value or an unusual or missing value. Observation value Value of a particular variable. Unit multiplier Exponent in base 10 specified so that multiplying the observation numeric values by 10^UNIT_MULT gives a value expressed in the unit of measure. Unit of measure Unit in which the data values are expressed. Base period Period of time used as the base of an index number, or to which a constant series refers. SDG Series SDG Indicator or Series. Uses the CETS convention for encoding. Degree of urbanisation Refers to Total, Urban, or Rural location. Income or wealth quantile Income or wealth quantile Custom Breakdown Used to represent user-defined breakdowns. Composite breakdown Represents an amalgamation of infrequently used breakdowns. Disability status Represents a person's disability status. Nature of data points Information on the production and dissemination of the data (e.g.: if the figure has been produced by the country, estimated by an international agency, etc.) Time period details When TIME_PERIOD refers to a date range, this attribute is used to provide metadata on the actual range the observation refers to (e.g. for period '2001-2003' TIME_PERIOD would be 2002 but the actual dates --2001-2003-- would be expressed here). Observation-level footnotes Additional information on specific aspects of each observation, such as how the observation was computed/estimated or details that could affect the comparability of this data point with others in a time series. Time period or range (ISO8601) ISO8601 representation of the actual time interval to which the observation refers Upper bound value Upper bound value for the indicator or series. Lower bound value Lower bound value for the indicator or series. Reporting type Represents whether the official SDG series is reported by a national, regional, or international agency. Source details Information on the name and specific details of each observation's data source. Both the sources for the numerator and denominator could be specified here. Economic activity Classification of economic activities Time series-level footnotes Additional information on specific aspects applicable to all observations in the time series. Geoinformation URL Location of geoinformation Geoinformation type Type of geionformation provided in attribute GEO_INFO_URL Label for custom breakdown Information provided in the CUST_BREAKDOWN dimension, when applicable Type of product Type of product Date of the most recent change of the series. Date of the most recent change of the series.

For MDG data exchange it is usually expressed as a four-digit year (e.g.: 1995) so, if the observation refers to a period of time (range), details about such period should be specified in the attribute TIME_DETAIL Time Span Specifies time range for series describing multiple year intervals.

WPP Concept Scheme World Population Prospects Concept Scheme Scenario Projection scenarios in the context of population cohort-component population projections are based on a specific set of assumptions about future trends in respect to each demographic component (i.e., fertility, mortality, international net migration). WDI Concept Scheme WDI Concept Scheme Frequency Indicates rate of recurrence at which observations occur (e.g. monthly, yearly, biannually, etc.). Reference Area Reference Area: Specific areas (e.g. Country, Regional Grouping, etc) the observed values refer to. Reference areas can be determined according to different criteria (e.g.: geographical, economic, etc.). Series The phenomenon or phenomena to be measured in the data set. The word SERIES is used for consistency with the term used in the WDI Database. SERIES are 54 key indicators from WDI Time period Reference date - or date range - the observed value refers to (usually different from the dates of data production or dissemination).
