Description
Finding the right data can be difficult when information is spread across multiple pages or presented in formats that are hard to analyse. The OECD Data Explorer helps users find, understand and use OECD statistics through search, topic browsing, filtering tools, interactive tables and charts.
The platform allows users to refine queries by country, time period and other dimensions, view metadata and source information, customise table layouts and generate visualisations. Data can be downloaded in formats such as Excel and CSV or accessed programmatically through APIs. Users can also save, share and embed data queries.
