National Statistics / 2014 63% open (avg.)

Census.gov has data on a wide variety of national statistics including all major demographic and economic indicators (population, GDP etc etc). Tabular data is generally provided in machine-readable formats such as Excel (an open format such as CSV would be preferable but we still consider this acceptable). The data is also available "in bulk" in the sense that ther e are complete files plus data is available via automated access on an FTP site at http://www2.census.gov/ (where CSV files are often available). One point to note is that there are other sources of such data within the US government including the Bureau of Economic Analysis (http://bea.gov), the Bureau of Labor Statistics (http://bls.gov/) etc.

The data are in the public domain.

Data is available and downloadable in tabular data format. License is PDDL.

Data is freely available as long as the source is referenced. See http://ssb.no/en/informasjon/copyright

Previous editor's note: But I've been corresponding with Statistics Norway ( the home of the statistics ) and they've said the same. Their license is essentially the same as the Norwegian License for Open Government Data ( NLOD - http://data.norge.no/nlod/en/1.0 ), but they can't yet write this, though they're working on it. That is, their license is CC BA compatible.

Datasets available through the API (data.ssb.no) is licensed under NLOD: http://www.ssb.no/en/omssb/tjenester-og-verktoy/api

Data are machine readable (csv file) and available on the open data platform data.gouv.fr.

All the data produced by Statistics Finland as official national and regional statistics is available free of charge and by open data principles in the StatFin database.

In addition, Statistics Finland hosts some charged information services tailored for user-specific or other special needs. The charge is based on the amount of work needed for building the service and checking for quality matters such as data protection issues.

All the national statistics data are open to public, reusable and freely available in Data Portal India. The Data has been shared under National Data Sharing and Accessibility Policy – 2012 (NDSAP-2012). This was a unique initiative taken by Govt of India to facilitate access to Government of India owned shareable data and information in both human readable and machine readable forms.

The national statistics office publishes statistics at https://www.destatis.de/DE/Publikationen/Publikationen.html and statistical data at https://www-genesis.destatis.de/genesis/online/data is available in XLS and other formats, however the quality of the machine readable data is abysmal.

The general Copyright statement is essentially saying that you can reuse the data provided attribution is given, but you are not allowed to change or manipulate the information: "© Statistisches Bundesamt, Wiesbaden 2013. Sie können Informationen speichern, (auch auszugsweise) mit Quellenangabe weitergeben, vervielfältigen und verbreiten sowie Links zur Homepage des Statistischen Bundesamtes legen. Die Informationen dürfen im Übrigen nicht verändert oder verfälscht werden." which would make it not openly licensed. At http://www.govdata.de the same data is available under the German "Datenlizenz Deutschland" which has been reviewed and considered not compliant with the Open Definition in Version 1.0. However, this non-compliance was due to the fact that there is the option to apply the Datenlizenz Deutschland with an NC component. However, non of the data sets on govdata.de published by the National Statistics Agency carry the NC component. Thereby the data is openly licensed. Furthermore the Datenlizenz 2.0 has been approved by the Open Definition Advisory Council recently and it can be assumed that it will replace the 1,0 version shortly to erase and ambiguities about openness.

In partnership with the the African Development Bank (AfDB), the National institute of statistics opened some of its datasets to end users (in French & English): Socio-economics indicators, population datasets and other data such as the health ministries' budget...

A lot of data sets are available from the NZ.Stat interface at http://nzdotstat.stats.govt.nz/wbos/Index.aspx

CBS published 3500 datasets early 2014, after doing tests with 150 sets in 2013

The UK's Office for National Statistics has primary responsibility for maintaining and publishing national economic and demographic information (including the Census). ONS material is re-usable under the terms of the Open Government Licence and UK Government Licensing Framework. http://www.ons.gov.uk/ons/datasets-and-tables/index.html lists (as of 14 Oct 2013) 13059 datasets and reference tables available under the OGL. Each of the datasets is downloadable in full, machine-readable formats (mainly Excel, but some also available in CSV and XML). Data is not available in bulk - users must download each file separately. There are a variety of Census 2011 datasets including population by local authority (http://www.ons.gov.uk/ons/rel/census/2011-census/key-statistics-and-quick-statistics-for-local-authorities-in-the-united-kingdom---part-1/rft-ks101uk.xls), GDP dataset (2Q2013 at http://www.ons.gov.uk/ons/rel/naa2/quarterly-national-accounts/q2-2013/tsd-quarterly-national-accounts--q2-2013.html with links to XML and CSV formats), and unemployment by age and duration (http://www.ons.gov.uk/ons/rel/lms/labour-market-statistics/september-2013/table-unem01.xls) Some, but not all, of these datasets are fed onto data.gov.uk Statistics are released according to a published schedule.

Very detailed data is protected due to privacy issues. Data is not available in bulk. It can be configured via an interactive interface and then only this specific graphic/table can be downloaded in different file formats.

The quality and openness of the data varies. Some are available up to date and in usable spreadsheets, some docs or pdfs. Terms of use state that data is freely available, but the author must be attributed and the statistical figures must not be changed.

For example, data from Population and Housing Census 2011 are available in machine readable formats (XLS, CSV). http://www.czso.cz/csu/redakce.nsf/i/otevrena_data_pro_vysledky_scitani_lidu_domu_a_bytu_2011_(sldb_2011)

GDP data is available as individual spreadsheets per quarter.

Unemployment data are redirected to Eurostat website.

noted that localised IM OGL now available based on UK OGL

Sakstat / Geostat makes numerous national indicators available on their website for free.

In some cases, the data is presented in HTML tables, which I believe are machine-readable. Some data is provided in Excel spreadsheets as well. Still other data is only provided as images of pie charts or line graphs. In aggregate, I don't believe that the data is sufficiently structured to qualify as machine-readable, but some datasets are machine-readable.

Data is not available in bulk; each dataset must be downloaded individually.

Sakstat / Geostat provides foundational statistics for free, such as population, GDP, unemployment, etc. However, the agency collects more detailed statistics which are not freely available. The freely-available statistics are sufficiently detailed that I believe the dataset qualifies as freely available even though not all statistics collected by the agency are available for free.

All government-generated data in Georgia is legally in the public domain.

Data is accessible in a wide variety of formats and can be downloaded in bulk. The only information that cannot be accesed is cenus microdata, since it contains a great degree of personal data and data that can make people identifiable.

INEGI changed its internal normativity to make all information free. They only charge a cost of distributrion is incurred (eg. printing): http://sc.inegi.org.mx/repositorioNormateca/Nod_23Sep14.pdf

Right now the terms of use clearly state that the only requirement is the soruce attribution.

Fruthermore, following the change in normativity already provided, starting november 11th, INEGI will adopt the Mexican Open license that can be found at 'http://datos.gob.mx/libreusomx/'.

The National Statistics Institute collects the data and it can be retrieved:

(1) online, free of charge, PDF format, for the main indicators

(2) online, interrogation of the database using the interface provided by an institution. Most data is free but it requires an account (also free). Data can't be downloaded in bulk.

(3) Offline, data can be downloded in bulk data, for a fee, after submitting a specific request

(4) the data are under copyright © 1998-2014 Institutul National de Statistica - ROMANIA, and it is unclear if there is a licence.

No change from 2013

Reuse is allowed in policy but no specific license given.

Registration needed to access data. The home page states "Use and publication of data is allowed provided the source is acknowledged."

Commercial users need to obtain written permission, as per Liability and copyright page.

Statistics Austria has launched an open data sub-section of its website, http://data.statistik.gv.at/. However, it only offers about a dozen datasets there under open data standards. The datasets released there include data on the total population of Austria, but not on its GDP.

Numerous datasets are released by Statistik Austria on its main website in PDF and some also in HTML and other formats. Data can also be access through access to a web-based free but captcha protected database, that allows for download of selected data in various formats, including CSV and XLS. Statistik Austria retains a strict copyright on the data (except the few datasets released on its open data sub-website) and charges for many data sets, including municipal budget data.

Many separate spreadsheets available, although some data is only available when making a selection using online report builder.

More data is available at http://www.census2011.be/.

Note that all statistics are also published by Eurostat. Where they are available in bulk. See https://ec.europa.eu/CensusHub2/query.do?step=selectHyperCube&qhc=false&countrycode=be This holds for every European Union Member state.

Unsure how to answer "Available in bulk?":

• each dataset is available in bulk via a data selection form where users can choose time periods and data fields to export. However, there is no single downloadable archive with all the national statistics in it.

Comment: No changes since 2013 year

StatsSA is the national statistics agency. Data is available at various levels of aggregation but is often difficult to extract data in bulk - e.g. for the census, each indicator needs to be extracted individually. Not all data is available in machine readable format. Some of it is available only in PDF files, but some datasets are available in Excel and ASCII formats under the 'interactive data' heading.

From the dataset for national statistics, each segment has open data based on Economic, Labour Market and Earnings, Demographic & Social Statistics and Censuses. Each category can be clicked and the option to download statistics in CSV, PDF, XLS, etc.

The data are arranged in approximately 150 spreadsheets for each region (totaling 2,250 sheets for the country, resulting in about 1,000,000 records). Those are grouped in three variables (Economic, Social, Environment) and these into 16 categories that can be accessed through an index.

There are different data sets available, but not always with in a homogeneous temporal series. Not license nor terms od se of the information has been found

The data is available at the National Statistics Institute. It keeps data on quite a lot of aspects of economics and demographics. The data is however only in XLS format (when it is not as PDF) and in Bulgarian language. Bulk download is not possible. Historic data is limited. Despite a detailed data release schedule (see for ex. http://www.nsi.bg/bg/content/11918/basic-page/%D0%BA%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%B4%D0%B0%D1%80-%D0%B7%D0%B0-%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%B7%D0%BF%D1%80%D0%BE%D1%81%D1%82%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%B5-%D0%BD%D0%B0-%D1%80%D0%B5%D0%B7%D1%83%D0%BB%D1%82%D0%B0%D1%82%D0%B8%D1%82%D0%B5-%D0%BE%D1%82-%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B0%D1%82%D0%B8%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B8%D1%87%D0%B5%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B8%D1%82%D0%B5-%D0%B8%D0%B7%D1%81%D0%BB%D0%B5%D0%B4%D0%B2%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%B8%D1%8F), the data is not always up-to-date.

No change from 2013 was observed on this dataset.

No changes from 2013

nothing changed in 2014

There are plans to make more data available in future .

The National Bureau of Statistics have now started making data available online - first is with its elibrary at http://nigerianstat.gov.ng/nbslibrary and recently an amazing data portal at http://nigeria.prognoz.com/ However, when we tried using the xls download button it returned the map version of the data??? I am thinking it should give a spreadsheet as output. An excellent progress overall!

According to Genova, no change from 2013.

No licence specified

The data in Traditional Chinese version is .xls file formate, but the English version is .pdf http://eng.stat.gov.tw/mp.asp?mp=5

Statistics available on different topics: some data is machine readable, but some is in PDF format. Data is not always regularly updated (sometimes the latest numbers are from 2009). Data is copyrighted under 2013 - Central Administration of Statistics

The National Statistics Office maintains a data catalogue. Microdata can be downloaded in different machine readable formats. No open license is available: http://web0.psa.gov.ph/nsoda/index.php/about-the-data Data is not timely - the last update of the website is from 2010.

The major issue related to the work of the State Statistical Office is that there is no recent census. This fact makes all data less valuable and affects their accuracy. Data is not available in bulk. Every indicator must be downloaded separately. Example here: http://makstat.stat.gov.mk/pxweb2007bazi/Database/Statistics%20by%20subject/Gross%20Domestic%20Product%20and%20Gross%20Fixed%20Capital%20Formation/Gross%20Domestic%20Product/Gross%20Domestic%20Product.asp

National Statistical Office responsible for National Statistics. Their data focuses on:

• Census data (สำมะโน)
• Society Survey (สำรวจด้านสังคม)
• Economy Survey (สำรวจด้านเศรษฐกิจ)
• Information and Communication Technology Survey (สำรวจด้านเศรษฐกิจ)

INEC has a lot of specific analysis but getting access to the whole dataset is not possible.

Demography and social statistics (aloing with some others) ar available at URL which starts with "http://slovak.statistics.sk/..." but is too long to be pasted here. Instead, we can start at http://slovak.statistics.sk/, click at "Statistics" and than at "Demography and social statistics".

Data there is in HTML table.

There is no formal license attached to data, only copyright assertion at the bottom of the page. So at least free access is assumed (sort of improvement over 2013), while openly licensed is filled as "no".

No all data is consistently availabe this way but at least those few stats mentioned in Census definition are, thus we can fill "yes" for "is it accessible online" (again, sort of improvement over 2013).

El Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Censos (INDEC) provide an up-to-date downloadable datasets in various format for research. However, this process involves a registration to the website. No license was found on the website.

In addition, several research papers have found the data on economic indicators, which are relevant for this Index are not accurate of completely missing. Therefore, while there is data around statistics, the relevant one does not exist and we decided to change the submission. Sources: http://www.economist.com/blogs/americasview/2014/04/statistics-argentina http://www.economist.com/blogs/americasview/2014/09/statistics-argentina

The data is available as one-shot PDFs, therefore each file needs to be downloaded individually.

The key economic and demographic indicators are available in the official website of the National Institute of Statistics, mainly in Arabic or French. Most of them are regularly updated (most recently Nov 11th 2014). There is no explicit license indicated neither on the Institute's website nor in the individual documents. As in such cases default copyright seems to apply, we consider data to not comply with the definition of openly licensed data.

Massive lot of statistics is available online. However, most of statistics are not in machine-readable formats.

Regarding up-to date status of data, the documents are available, but some are very slow processed. It is currently (as of November 2014.) unclear whether the data from the 2011 census is fully published.

Census data is available in a machine-readable format (MS Excel), but most periodical publications are not (available only in PDF or HTML).

Reproduction in whole or in part in any form or medium of any of CBS publications without acknowledging the Croatian Bureau of Statistics as the source is prohibited.

Only preliminary results of the last census are available in pdf format. There is no yearly statistics available on the website.

Not all files published are machine readable.

Includes GDP by USA Department of Commerce: http://www.usviber.org/GTPVI2012.pdf

Reviewer's comments: Extensive statistics available (economic, social), divided in a series of sub-divisions. Submission appears correct.

There are open files and licenced files.

Licensed files: This approach involves a signed agreement between the National Data Archive and external trusted users, to permit them to access semi-anonymized data files. Licensing agreements are only entered into with bona fideusers when there is an appropriate sponsoring institution or referee. Users must be able to:

Demonstrate a need to access the data in order to fulfill a stated statistical or research purpose; and Comply with the conditions set forth in a formal Microdata Access Agreement. Those interested in accessing the data under license should fill our Licensed Dataset Request Form. Requests are evaluated by a our Microdata Release Panel. When the decision is made to grant access to the data, users will receive them through secure ftp server.

The National Statistical Agency is Statistics Canada - http://www.statcan.gc.ca/start-debut-eng.html. Some of the data it produces are free and under and open licence, many are not and are under a cost recovery program. Statistical data are also available from many federal agencies and they are released intermittently. Administrative health data are available from the Canadian Institute of Health Information (CIHI). Health, education and so on are administered by provinces and territories and these are available by contacting all 13 jurisdictions. Revenue data are available from the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) while housing data are available from the Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC). Unemployment, bankruptcy data are available from Human Resources and Development Services canada (HRSDC), immigration from Citizen Immigration Canada, and so on. Some data are for fee, some are for free, some are difficult to find as there is no central repository, many of the agencies are not well organized and not all are in the open data portal. Also some of these are administrative data while others are official national statistics. There is a unified open data licence in progress but this is not yet in practice for all federal level data and this is most certainly not the case for provinces and territories. Municipal statistical data are available at that jurisdiction. An up to date list of open data portals is available here - http://datalibre.ca/links-resources/. (No change from 2013)

The CAPMAS (Central Agency for Public Mobilization and Statistics) is the national authority responsible for collecting, curating and releasing the country's data on demographics, wages, agriculture, tourism, etc. The website and the data are available in Arabic and English.

Majority of are in PDF format, but some others are in XLS. There are also some broken links on the website.

Final reviewer: The majority of information is available as PDF embedded in a flash reader. The data overall is available in a non-readable format and is not available in bulk. Yet these criteria were marked as 'unsure' since one can filter and download quite some data through the CensusInfo database, incl. in a machine-readable format.

Regarding the timeliness of data, it is marked as outdated: http://www.censusinfo.capmas.gov.eg/DivInfo/ and http://www.censusinfo.capmas.gov.eg/DivInfo/DIWizard/DIWizardHome.aspx are the CAPMAS database; they seem to provided data from either 1980 or 2012 (unclear). Indeed, some summary numbers are provided for 2014 (e.g., http://www.capmas.gov.eg/Pepo/lab_e.pdf). Lastly, it is unknown what the release mechanism is and how often the data is updated.

According to the Census and Statistics Act of 2007, Zimbabwean statistics is done by a corporate body - The Zimbabwe National Statistics Agency (ZIMSTAT). The agency suppose to provide quarterly surveys, yet it seems that they can not sustain such reports and that most of the data is out dated. Quarterly reports that do exist are in PDF format and do not give bulk information. There is a link to the African development bank portal, but I couldn't find the information there.

The Department of Statistics provides census data as a report. As for the digest of statistics this seems to be spread over a number of different reports per category and reporting period.

For a copy of a complete digest of statistics for a reporting period it would probably be easier to use the one available at Bermuda.io (although that is a non-gov source): http://bermuda.io/dataset/bermuda-digest-of-statistics

Demographic and economic indicators can be found on the website of the Statistics & Informatics Institute (URL mentioned: http://www.ihsi.ht/). However, the site is not user-friendly, not all indicators can be downloaded (sometimes there are only data visualisations) and if so mostly in pdf.

You can view the data without paying, but there are charges for some datasets and reports. Data is mixed, between percentages and whole numbers. Some data is machine-readable, some is not.

We find find official statistics including those regularly conducted national surveys/ censuses.

The High Commissioner for Planning (HCP) of the Kingdom of Morocco is responsible for the statistics. More precisely, the Statistics Directorate (Direction de la statistique http://www.hcp.ma/Direction-de-la-statistiquea716.html ) at the HCP.

The data is diverse but generally outdated and provided mostly as PDFs or Word documents although Excel sheets also exist. The Moroccan Open Data portal data.gov.ma also hosts several datasets from the HCP (http://www.data.gov.ma/data/fr/organization/haut-commissariat-au-plan). The data here is as Excel sheets yet is mostly outdated and not available for bulk download.

The question about licensing is tricky to answer: when it boils down to the HCP, the data and content it provides are property of the institution. The Open Data portal has an unclear status: each dataset here is individually licensed under the ODbL yet the website itself and all its content are copyrighted by the eGov unit (data.gov.ma has no indication whatsoever on its 'License' page: http://www.data.gov.ma/fr/licence). Thus, the copyright mention has priority and the data is considered non-open.

The Datasets available are from 2002 to 2013.

The Kenya National Bureau of statistics which is the central government agency that collects data has statistics on census, economic activities, demographics. It has many channels through which the some of the data is distributed, with links for these pages on their website, one of which is the Kenya Open Data Initiative (KODI). However there seems to be no standard for distributing data. Some are available and open e.g. KODI but some are available on the KNBS website itself but not open. Some of these are not charged while others are. KNBS applies a statistics act and a form has to be submitted for data requests. On the plus side some include metadata, background information, data description. On the Kenya Open Data portal, the datasets are mostly from KNBS but not up to date. [According to Ahmed - No changes from 2013]

The National Centre for Statistics & Information is a relatively new government entity in Oman that works on publicising national statistics in all fields. NCSI is active on social media and publishes its stats on Facebook ( https://www.facebook.com/OmanNCSI?ref=hl ) and Twitter ( https://twitter.com/NCSIOman ) , it also has smart phone apps for accessing the data from mobile devices. The data is currently not "open", but the website of the NCSI has a "coming soon" section that promises to have "Open Data".

Reviewer: I have introduced major amendments to this indicator as the website seems to solely provide a HTML table with very high level numbers; the key national statistics (e.g., demographic and economic indicators) are do not seem to be featured, neither on the Arabic nor on the English part of the website. There is no file associated/linked to through this table, therefore it is unknown whether the detailed data is available in a digital form at all. The promised Open Data portal (http://www.ncsi.gov.om/NCSI_website/N_open_data_ar.aspx) is under construction, so not considered in the assessment. The indicator has been downgraded to reflect these considerations.
