a) Economic Data
The database consists of two main sections, namely primary source regional data and standardised regional data. The first section is an archived collection of relevant electronically available industry and population censuses and surveys published by Statistics South Africa and various other government departments and organisations. These resources give users direct access to complete actual datasets and survey questionnaires.
The second section (standardised regional database) combines the actual data as reflected in the first section in a standardised format to conform to the national accounts, a long-term demographic model of South Africa and other socio-economic national and regional benchmark time-series. With data available on a municipal level, and for 23 industries (where appropriate) this collection of data will facilitate the comparison of economic and development indicators over time and region.
b) Economic Analysis
A regional forecast based on the standardised regional database and Quantec's macroeconomic and industry outlook. The forecast covers population demographics, household income, household and government consumption expenditure, investment, output, GVA and employment.
