iotables (version 0.2.4)

iotable_get: Get an input-output table from bulk file

Description

This function is used to filter out a single input-output table from a database, for example a raw file downloaded from the Eurostat website. It provides some functionality to avoid some pitfalls. Unless you want to work with bulk data files, you should not invoke iotables_download directly, rather via this function, if and when it is necessary.

Usage

iotable_get(source = "germany_1990", geo = "DE", year = 1990,
  unit = "MIO_EUR", stk_flow = "DOM", labelling = "iotables")

Arguments

source

A data source, for example "naio_10_cp1700". Possible codes are "naio_10_cp1700", "naio_10_cp1750", "naio_10_pyp1700", "naio_10_pyp1750", "naio_cp17_r2", "naio_17_agg_60_r2", "naio_17_agg_10_r2", "croatia_2010_1700", "croatia_2010_1800", "croatia_2010_1900". For further information consult the Eurostat Symmetric Input-Output Tables page.

geo

A country code or a country name. For example, "SK" or as "Slovakia".

year

A numeric variable containing the year. Defaults to 2010, because this year has the most data.

unit

A character string containing the currency unit, defaults to "MIO_NAC" (million national currency unit). The alternative is "MIO_EUR".

stk_flow

Defaults to "DOM", alternative "IMP".

labelling

Defaults to "iotables" which gives standard row and column names regardless of the source of the table, or if it is a product x product, industry x industry or product x industry table. The alternative is "short" which is the original short row or column code of Eurostat or OECD.

Examples

Run this code
# NOT RUN {
germany_table <- iotable_get( source = "germany_1990", geo = 'DE', 
             year = 1990,   unit = "MIO_EUR", 
             labelling  = 'iotables')
# }
