Search and Visualize a table To start the search and visualize process, simply click on the pulsating button. This will open up the catalogue
The catalogue Here you have all the list of dataset available in the website By clicking on “data domain”, “Reference area” (and so on by clicking on the “+” button) the retrieval of datasets can be filtered. More than one filter can be selected at once
Be careful on how to use the "free text" function The catalogue Be careful on how to use the "free text" function Type the exact keyword, or if you wish to make a general research write the word with "*" at the end (e.g., "pop*" to find all the words that start with “pop”; e.g. “animal*” to find both singular and plural words)
Filtering the catalogue The more criteria are imposed the more the dataset’s retrieval will be refined, since, by selecting more than one filter at once, only datasets compliant with every one of those filters will be shown.
Search and Visualize a table After the filtering is done, select the resource you wish to visualize by clicking on “select”
Table Example Once a resource is selected from the catalogue, it will be visualized in its tabular form
Table Example Here it is shown: Page 1: 15 lines
Table Example Here one can change the page: Here one can change the page: Page 2, page 3, page 4, page 5, etc.
Table Example Here it is possible to change how many lines per page (e.g. 150 lines)
Visualize the resource’s metadata By clicking on “meta” next to the resource’s title, the metadata linked to that resource will be shown in tabular form. To go back to the tabular form use the menu next to the “meta” button
Visualize the resource’s metadata Here is the metadata interface

Aggregation of the resource Drag and drop the interested dimensions Group by indicator / product / year / admin level and sum (or average) by value If you click on "aggregation" you can make sums directly online
Aggregation of the resource exemple
