Data-as-of date

Data-as-of date: A data-as-of date is the date on which the underlying records behind a published figure stood, as distinct from the date the figure was published.

A data-as-of date is the date on which the underlying records behind a published figure stood, as distinct from the date the figure was published.

DDSIntel stores every refresh of its database as a new version, so each figure can be traced to the records as they stood on its data-as-of date. Data years also explain many apparent conflicts between sources: two figures can both be correct while describing different years.
