Canadian International Trade Data, 1998: Canadian Import Summary Files

These files, produced by Statistics Canada International Trade Division, give the value of goods (in CDN) and quantities by 2, 4, 6, 8 or 10 -digit SITC Rev.3 code. Trade figures are divided into imports and exports relative to Canada. Currently the Export file is only referenced at the 8 digit level. The imports file is referenced at the 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 digit level. Since the files are so large, the imports have been divided into 5 sections based on the commodities. These are referenced below in the Documentation Section. Users may also be interested in the WorldTrade Database which contains information on imports and exports between any two countries, at the 4 digit level. This data contains annual figures from 1980-1997.

本数据集由加拿大统计局国际贸易司编制，列示了以加拿大元（CDN）计价的货物价值，以及按2位、4位、6位、8位或10位《标准国际贸易分类修订第3版》(SITC Rev.3)编码分类的货物数量。贸易数据分为针对加拿大的进口与出口两类：目前出口文件仅支持8位编码层级的调用，进口文件则支持2位、4位、6位、8位及10位编码层级的调用。鉴于文件体量庞大，进口数据已按商品类别划分为5个分册，各分册的详细说明详见下文文档部分。用户亦可关注世界贸易数据库（WorldTrade Database），该库包含以4位编码层级分类的任意两国间进出口贸易数据。本数据集涵盖1980年至1997年的年度贸易统计数据。
