HISTORECO: Historical Spanish transition database on climate, geography, and economics of the 20th-21st Century

HISTORECO is a comprehensive database that includes more than 45 geographic, climatic, hydrological, demographic, and economic variables (64 columns of data apart from the 7 first of identification of the municipality in "Historeco.csv") spanning the 20th and 21st centuries, covering all 8,122 municipalities in Spain each of which has one value per decade. It is a unique dataset that integrates data from various sources, facilitating the analysis of long-term temporal and spatial trends across multiple disciplines such as climate, geography, and socio-economic development.The dataset combines information from twenty sources (databases/articles), harmonizing and downscaling them to the municipal level using GIS and programming tools (mainly QGIS, R, and Python). This is the most extensive dataset of its kind in terms of temporal depth and spatial granularity available for Spain.This project has been developed thanks to funding from the Ramón Areces Foundation, without which it would not have been possible.

HISTORECO是一款综合性数据库，除"HISTORECO.csv"中用于识别西班牙市镇的前7个标识字段外，共计包含超45项地理、气候、水文、人口与经济类变量，对应64列数据。其时间跨度覆盖20世纪与21世纪，涵盖西班牙全部8122个市镇，每个市镇每十年可获取一组对应数据。
本数据集为独特的多源整合型数据库，整合了来自各类渠道的信息，可为气候学、地理学、社会经济发展等多学科领域的长期时空趋势分析提供助力。
本数据集整合了20个不同来源（数据库/学术论文）的信息，并借助地理信息系统（GIS，Geographic Information System）及编程工具（主要包括QGIS、R与Python）完成数据协调与降尺度处理，将所有数据统一至市镇级空间粒度。其在时间深度与空间精细度维度上，均为当前西班牙境内同类研究中规模最广的数据集。
本项目的开发得益于拉蒙·阿塞斯基金会（Ramón Areces Foundation）的资助，若无该项支持，本项目无法完成。
