The development of OECD eXplorer is the result of a fruitful cooperation between OECD and the National Centre for Visual Analytics (NCVA, http://ncva.itn.liu.se/) at Linköping University, Sweden. In October 2008, Professor Mikael Jern from NCVA made available a preliminary version of OECD eXplorer on the OECD website. Since then, NCVA has worked intensively on improving the tool and this new version has been greatly enhanced to meet demands expressed by data users.
