International Measures of Development

The International Measures of Development dataset provides a snapshot into the economic, demographic, and investment profiles of 70 countries from across the globe over the last 50 years. The included countries provide representation of all major geographic regions, while being diverse in their financial and social characteristics. The dataset contains a total of four tables, each representing a separate entity inherent to a country’s overall image. By placing all of these tables in one dataset, different aspects from various categories can be compared for different countries. The first of which is the country table, which serves as the primary reference for the three other tables. Each record within this table represents one of the 70 countries which comprise the dataset. The attributes associated with this table include country ID, country name, continent, current population, and land area. The respective datatypes are of type VARCHAR and INT. Secondly, the demographic table contains key quality of life indicators relevant to countries on an international scale. Each record in this table represents a given year for a given country, for a total of 3500 records. It contains the following 12 columns: demographic ID, country ID, year, life expectancy, population, birth rate, death rate, median age, percent married, sex ratio, child dependency, and old age dependency. Datatypes for this table are of type INT and DECIMAL. Next, the economic table contains variables which represent the country’s financial and workforce profile. Like the demographic table, each record in this table represents a given year for a given country for a total of 3500 records. It contains the following 8 columns: economic ID, country ID, year, GDP, GDP per capita, inflation, unemployment rate, and GNI. Datatypes for this table are of type INT and DECIMAL. Lastly, the investment table captures a country’s investing landscape. It features the same structure as the other two tables. The 12 contained columns include investment ID, country ID, year, inflow FDI, outflow FDI, investments in energy, ICT, transportation, and water, non-financial asset investment, portfolio investment, and net financial account. Datatypes for this table are of type INT and DECIMAL.国际发展测度数据集（International Measures of Development dataset）提供了过去50年间全球70个国家的经济、人口与投资概况快照。该数据集覆盖所有主要地理区域的国家，且在金融与社会特征上呈现多样性。本数据集共包含四张数据表，每张对应国家整体图景中一个独立的核心维度。将所有数据表整合于同一数据集下，可实现不同国家多类别维度的对比分析。 首个数据表为国家表，作为其余三张表的核心参照。该表每条记录对应数据集内70个国家中的一个，包含的属性有：国家ID（country ID）、国家名称、大洲、当前人口与国土面积，数据类型为VARCHAR和INT。 其次为人口统计表（demographic table），收录国际层面关键的生活质量指标。该表每条记录对应单个国家的单一年度，总计3500条记录，包含12个字段：人口统计ID（demographic ID）、国家ID（country ID）、年份、预期寿命、总人口、出生率、死亡率、中位年龄、已婚人口占比、性别比、儿童抚养比与老年抚养比，数据类型为INT和DECIMAL。 接下来为经济数据表（economic table），收录反映国家金融与劳动力状况的变量。与人口统计表一致，该表每条记录对应单个国家的单一年度，总计3500条记录，包含8个字段：经济统计ID（economic ID）、国家ID（country ID）、年份、国内生产总值（GDP）、人均国内生产总值（GDP per capita）、通货膨胀率、失业率与国民总收入（GNI），数据类型为INT和DECIMAL。 最后为投资数据表（investment table），呈现国家的投资格局。其结构与前述两张表一致，包含12个字段：投资统计ID（investment ID）、国家ID（country ID）、年份、外商直接投资流入额（inflow FDI）、外商直接投资流出额（outflow FDI）、能源领域投资、信息与通信技术领域投资（ICT）、交通运输领域投资、水务领域投资、非金融资产投资、证券投资与金融账户净额，数据类型为INT和DECIMAL。
