titleExpand to learn about search and filter

You can search by various criteria including:

  • Data source document: name and organization

  • Data series: name, description, and metadata

Learn more about search functionality in FDE.

You can filter the available data series using one or more of the following criteria:

  • Period: Filters by the collection/reporting period.

    • Start date: Returns all data series starting on or before this date.

    • End date: Returns all data series ending on or after this date.

  • Geographic*: Filters by country.

  • Market: Filters by the name of the actual market or the name of the the town or city where the market is located. This filter aggregates items into a multi-level lists (e.g., cities and markets are aggregated into countries, which are aggregated into regions). Selecting the higher-level item in the list will automatically select all the lower-level items in the list.

*You can search using any of the above criteria marked with an asterisk. You can also search, but not filter, by:

  • Data Source Document: The name of the document used as the primary source of information or data.

  • Data Source Organization: The name of the organization that provided the data source document.

  • Data Series: The name of a particular data series.

Expand
titleExpand to learn about data selection

Once you have applied your search terms and filters, you will be presented with a list of all available data series that match your criteria. A data series is a collection of related data points from a single data source that are viewable as a single row within a table of data. They represent the change over time of a specific indicator. Data series are presented in table format where each row represents a single data series.

The Exchange Rate domain data selection table includes the following columns:

  • Name: Name of the data series, formatted as {to_currency} per {from_currency}: {rate_type}: {market.full_name}.

  • Country: Country where the exchange rate was observed.

  • Data source organization: The name of the organization that provided the data source document.

  • Data source document: The name of the document used as the primary source of information or data.

  • First: Period date for the first collection/reporting period in the data series.

  • Last: Period date for the last collection/reporting period in the data series.

  • Count: The number of data points in the data series.

Tip

To visualize and export data, you will need to select one or more data series by checking the box at the beginning of the row containing that series.

In addition to selecting data series, you can interact with the data selection table in the following ways:

  • Selected data series can be viewed in the Selected tab.

  • You can clear your selections using the Clear Selected button.

  • By default the series are ordered alphabetically by country. You can click on the header of any column to sort by that column instead of by country.
