Standards for Statistical Data 2024

Standards for Statistical Data (SDS)are standardized concepts, definitions, classifications, measures, and units designed to produce consistent and reliable statistical data. SDS are developed with the aim of serving as a reference in the collection of statistical data, ensuring that the resulting data can be easily shared and integrated. SDS also help ensure data consistency, making it possible to compare data across different time periods and regions, and facilitating data use by various central and regional agencies.
