FAO CountrySTAT SDMX Project

This document provides a functional overview of the immediate-term project and its first results being undertaken by FAO's CountrySTAT Programme1 to leverage SDMX2 formats and registry technology to improve accessibility and timeliness of data reporting from the country level. The programme will potentially involve as many as four countries using CountrySTAT today, and will also involve a regional organization using RegionSTAT. Although this project facilitates exchange through only a small part of the total information chain, it will illustrate how similar approaches and tools could be used and integrated to make data collection easier at the FAO level from both regions and countries as well. The data involved in this project will be a set of straightforward tables, based on existing standard structures as collected and disseminated by FAO today.
