Details

The data are organized as datasets, each of which is a family of related series. Most datasets are multi-dimensional cubes: a single time series is one cell, addressed by the dataset plus one code per dimension (e.g. the GDP cube splits along type, structure and seas_adj). A handful of datasets are a single series and need no dimensions at all.

  • ds_catalog() lists every available dataset.

  • ds_search() is a flat, searchable list of the individual series.

  • ds_meta() describes one dataset's dimensions and their codes.

  • ds() downloads series, as a data.frame or ts object.
