UNIDO Industrial Statistics Database, ISIC Rev.3- 3/4 digit levels "INDSTAT4-Rev.3", 138 countries, 1985-2013 - #

Abstract --------------------------- UNIDO maintains a variety of databases comprising statistics of overall industrial growth, detailed data on business structure and statistics on major indicators of industrial performance by country in the historical time series. Among which is the UNIDO Industrial Statistics Database at the 3 & 4-digit levels of ISIC Revision 3 (INDSTAT4- Rev.3). INDSTAT4 contains highly disaggregated data on the manufacturing sector for the period 1985 onwards. Comparability of data over time and across the countries has been the main priority of developing and updating this database. INDSTAT4 offers a unique possibility of in-depth analysis of the structural transformation of economies over time. The database contains seven principle indicators of industrial statistics. The data are arranged at the 3- and 4-digit levels of the International Standard Industrial Classification of All Economic Activities (ISIC) Revision 3 pertaining to the manufacturing, which comprises more than 150 manufacturing sectors and sub-sectors. The time series can either be used to compare a certain branch or sector of countries or – if present in the data set – some sectors of one country.
