2007-2013 ERDF CF Categorisation Projectselection AIR2014 Raw

This dataset provides the raw cumulative categorisation data on the projects selected for support as reported in the 322 ERDF/CF programme annual Implementation reports (AIR) as at end 2014. The dataset is not a final picture of what was financed during 2007-2013. The values at the moment of closure of the period 2007-2013 are provided in this dataset: https://cohesiondata.ec.europa.eu/2007-2013/ESIF-2007-2013-categorisation-raw-data-from-closur/qt3c-wiyg

Each row presents a volume of EU support allocated to selected projects along with a combination of categorisation dimension codes. The Categorisation information system 2007-2013 was composed of 5 dimension providing information on:
- Priority themes (activities supported)
- Form of Finance
- Territorial context
- Location (NUTS codes)
- Economic Dimension

This raw data is of interest because it allows cross analysis of the different dimensions to answer questions such as:
- Which industries were supported under enterprise support measures? - (Comparing Priority themes vs Economic dimension)
- What sectors benefited from support to research activities
- What form of finance was used to deliver support to energy efficiency measures? - (comparing form of finance vs Priority theme)
