Economic statistics ROPI-adjusted for inflation - Regions (for 'Developer API')

<p style="text-align: justify;">This dataset provides indicators on real GDP, GVA and labour productivity measures in large regions (TL2) and small regions (TL3).&nbsp;Real values are deflation-adjusted using Regional Producer Price Index (ROPI), where available.</p> <p><strong>Regions and territorial levels</strong></p> <p style="text-align: justify;">Regions are subnational units below national boundaries and correspond to administrative divisions defined autonomously by countries according to different criteria. The OECD classifies regions into two regional levels: large regions (territorial level 2 or TL2) and small regions (territorial level 3 or TL3). This classification facilitates greater comparability of geographic units at the same territorial level.</p> <p>For more information, see the OECD Territorial grid <a href="https://stats.oecd.org/wbos/fileview2.aspx?IDFile=cebce94d-9474-4ffc-b72a-d731fbdb75b9">(pdf)</a>.</p> <p><strong>Regional typologies</strong></p> <p style="text-align: justify;">Regional typologies helps to assess differences in socio-economic trends in regions, both within and across countries. Small (TL3) regions are categorized based on shared characteristics into two types of typology:&nbsp;</p> <ul> <li style="text-align: justify;">Typology based on the proximity of regions to functional urban areas of different sizes (FUAs encompass the economic and functional extent of cities based on daily people&rsquo;s movements). See the methodology&nbsp;<a href="https://doi.org/10.1787/b902cc00-en">(pdf)</a>.</li> <li style="text-align: justify;">Typology based on urban-rural population: traditionally the OECD has classified small regions as predominantly urban, intermediate, or predominantly rural regions. See the methodology&nbsp;<a href="https://www.oecd-ilibrary.org/defining-regions-and-functional-urban-areas_5j8l8fgd288t.pdf?itemId=%2Fcontent%2Fcomponent%2Freg_cit_glance-2018-50-en&amp;mimeType=pdf">(pdf)</a>.</li> </ul> <p style="text-align: justify;">The list of OECD regions and typologies are presented in the OECD Territorial correspondence table&nbsp;<a href="https://stats.oecd.org/wbos/fileview2.aspx?IDFile=db68c5c3-5fd5-465c-b25b-b50aa14c2da1">(xlsx)</a>.</p> <p><strong>Cite this dataset</strong></p> <p>OECD Regions, Cities and Local Areas database&nbsp;<a href="http://oe.cd/geostats">http://oe.cd/geostats</a>.</p> <p><strong>Further information</strong></p>
