World country x industry table

213208 rows covering 226 countries and 96 industries across ten years, one row per country per industry per year.

The numbers

What one record is

One row per country, industry and year. Columns: ISO3 code, country name, HS2 industry code and name, export value, import value, world share, year-over-year growth, economic complexity index (ECI), revealed comparative advantage (RCA), year, and the source tag for that row. Industry codes are HS2 chapters rolled up from HS92 4-digit lines.

Records

This is the fact table underneath our country and industry work. It answers what happened in a given country and industry in a given year, and nothing else.

Columns

• iso3, country_name - the country, as an ISO3 code and a name.
• industry_code, industry_name - the HS2 chapter. Codes are rolled up from HS92 4-digit lines.
• export_value, import_value - traded value in USD, as published upstream.
• share - the country's share of world trade in that industry that year, computed from the imported values.
• growth - year-over-year change, computed from the imported values; empty for the first year of a series.
• eci, rca - economic complexity index and revealed comparative advantage, as published upstream.
• year, source - the year of the row and the upstream dataset ids it came from.

Sample rows

Boundaries

• Not every column has a value on every row. Share is populated on 195560 rows, RCA on 175613 and ECI on 125238, so the four answer columns cannot be used interchangeably.
• The industry here is an HS2 chapter, not a consumer category. A chapter such as rubber and articles thereof is not a market you can enter directly.
• Values are nominal USD as published upstream. We do not deflate them, and we do not restate them.

Method & definition

• Source. Two parts, and they are not the same part. Imported, not collected by us: export value, import value, RCA and ECI, taken from the OEC / BACI public trade and complexity series; the exact dataset ids are carried in the source column of every row (oec:trade_i_baci_a_92,complexity_rca_a_hs92_hs4,complexity_eci_a_hs92_hs4). Ours: the roll-up from HS92 4-digit lines to HS2 chapters, and the world share and year-over-year growth columns computed from the imported values. Nothing here was collected by crawling; the imported part is somebody else's measurement, republished with its source string.
• Definition. One row per country, industry and year. Columns: ISO3 code, country name, HS2 industry code and name, export value, import value, world share, year-over-year growth, economic complexity index (ECI), revealed comparative advantage (RCA), year, and the source tag for that row. Industry codes are HS2 chapters rolled up from HS92 4-digit lines.
