CountrySTAT Nigeria

Metadata

CountrySTAT is a framework that includes structured and comprehensive metadata. It can be useful not only for statisticians who compile, validate and analyse the data, but also for users who access and use the data.

The metadata system enhances understanding of any given data item within CountrySTAT by managing the documentation of related concepts and definitions, its sources and the methodologies used in its collection.

Reference documentation on CountrySTAT metadata can be found at:
