How to navigate through the visualisation page of a dataset

The page is structured in areas:

• Information

• Actions

• Visualisations

• Similar data

Each area can be accessed by:

• Clicking on the section name in the side navigation menu in the upper area of the page
  

• Scrolling the page up and down.

Information

This area provides:

• The location of the dataset in the navigation tree (in a breadcrumb).

• The dataset name.

• The dataset code.

• The date of the last update of the dataset.

• The source of the dataset (not available for every dataset).

• The About this dataset button to open the dataset information window (see below).

• The Explanatory texts button to display the explanatory notes (not available for every dataset).

• The Add to 'My datasets' button to add the dataset to My data basket (see this page).

Dataset page

The Dataset page is accessible by clicking on  About this dataset. This modal appears:

This modal exposes:

• In the first part:

  • Basic information on the dataset, like the date of its last update

  • Command buttons:

    • Click  to add the dataset to the My data basket

    • Click  to download the data (in TSV or SDMX 2.1 formats)

    • Click  to access the metadata page describing this dataset

    • Clickto share the dataset on websites (such as social networks)
      
      

      Please note that not every dataset has a corresponding metadata page. If the  button is grayed out, it means there is no metadata page available for this dataset

• The second part of the modal presents three tabs:

  1. Default tab, which displays for every dimension of the dataset the selected codes along with the following information:

  • Example:
    

  • The label of the dimension (Demographic indicator in the example)

  • The code of the dimension (INDIC_DE in the example)

  • The amount of positions used in the dataset (5 in the example)

  • The amount of positions available in the codelist corresponding to the dimension (28 in the example)

  • The list of positions effectively used in the dataset (on the right side)

    2. Full dataset (name of the dataset) tab, which displays for every dimension of the dataset the total available codes along with the following information:

  • Example:
    

  • The label of the dimension (Demographic indicator in the example)

  • The code of the dimension (INDIC_DE in the example)

  • The amount of positions available in the codelist corresponding to the dimension (28 in the example)

  • The list of positions available in the dataset (on the right side)

    3. Custom datasets tab, which contains any saved data view of the dataset.

  • Example:
    

  • The views saved for the dataset

  • The Create Custom dataset button, which redirects to the “Define your custom dataset“ window

  • The  button to download the data (in TSV or SDMX 2.1 formats), corresponding to the saved view

  • The button to access the metadata page describing the dataset, corresponding to the saved view

Actions

This area contains 2 tabs:

• Selection. This tab changes the layout, in other words, the presentation of the data. The available options depend on the current view such as table, bar chart, line chart, map, time series. It also allows a specific filtering using the dimensions available in the dataset. For example, to select specific TIME observations or GEO areas.
  

• Format. The available options depend on the current view such as table, bar chart, line chart, map, time series.
  

 Download allows downloading data.

 allows for creation and display of a custom view.
