|Dimension|Brief Description|
|---|---|
||Availability of Goal 1-6 indicators, measured by an average score. The primary data<br>source is the UN SDG database. While this is a database with comprehensive coverage<br>that all countries have signed up to, many countries are not yet submitting all their|
|Dimension 3.1: social<br>statistics|<br>available national data. Scores for some countries thus may not capture their<br>performance in calculating the indicators. For OECD countries, we supplement the UN<br>SDG database with comparable data submitted to the OECD following the<br>methodology inMeasuring Distance to the SDG Targets 2019: An Assessment of<br>Where OECD Countries Stand.|
|Dimension 3.2:<br>economic statistics|Availability of Goal 7-12 indicators, measured by an average score. See 3.1.|
|Dimension 3.3:<br>environmental statistics|Availability of Goal 13 & 15 indicators, measured by an average score. Goal 14 - Life<br>on Water - is not included because land-locked countries do not report on these<br>indicators. See 3.1.|
|Dimension 3.4:<br>institutional statistics|Availability of Goal 16-17 indicators measured by an average score. See 3.1.|
||Availability of recent censuses and surveys covering broad areas. The following<br>censuses and surveys are considered: Population & Housing census, Agriculture|

||Availability of Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS) indicator. An ideal<br>indicator would include a score based on the density of administrative data available in<br>sectors of social protection, education, labor, and health. However, social protection,|
|Dimension 4.2:<br>administrative data|<br>education, health, and labor admin data indicators not included because of lack of<br>established methodology. While several promising sources for administrative data from<br>the World Bank’s ASPIRE team, WHO, UNESCO, and ILO have been identified, the<br>were not included due to incomplete coverage across countries. Further research and<br>data collection effort would be needed to fill in this information, so that a more<br>comprehensive picture of administrative data availability can be produced.|
||Geospatial data available at 1st Admin Level. This data source from Open Data Watch<br>|
||focusing on data availability at the sub-national level provides a partial understanding|
|Dimension 4.3:<br>geospatial data|<br>of a country’s ability to produce geospatial data. A research and data collection effort is<br>needed to develop an more comprehensive global database of the availability of key<br>geospatial indicators.|
|Dimension 4.4:<br>Private/citizen<br>generated data|Not included because of lack of established methodology. Currently no comprehensive<br>source exists to measure the use of private and citizen generated data in national<br>statistical systems, and this should be another area where more data collection is<br>needed by the international community.|
||This indicator is based on PARIS21 indicators on SDG 17.18.2 (national statistical|
|Dimension 5.1:<br>Legislation and|<br>legislation compliance with UN Fundamental Principles of Official Statistics),<br>existence of National Statistical Council, national statistical strategy generation,|
|governance|national statistical plan. Limited country coverage makes cross country comparison<br>limited. So this is included in the dashboard, but not in the overall SPI score or index.|
