STAN database is primarily based on Member countries' Annual National Accounts by economic activity tables, compiled according to the recommendations of System of National Accounts 2008 (SNA 2008). The database provides annual measures of output, value added and its components, labour input, investment and capital stock at a relatively detailed level of activity across countries. Previous versions of STAN (from 2000) were based on SNA93 statistics. Missing data are estimated using other sources such as national industrial surveys/censuses. Time series are extended back to the 1970's where possible. This is done using vintage SNA93 or STAN estimates. In STAN, many data points are Secretariat's estimates and are flagged to the attention of users; as such, they do not represent official Member countries' submissions. STAN industry list is based on the International Standard Industrial Classification of all economic activities, Revision 4 (ISIC Rev. 4) and covers sufficient detail to highlight technology and digital-intensive sectors. Earlier versions of STAN were using ISIC Rev. 3 and, prior to 2000, ISIC Rev. 2 (the latter only covering the manufacturing industries). • Structure • Documentation Note that STAN is updated on a rolling basis as national data become available.
