Source-first data
Every metric stores source family, access method, refresh cadence, year, update date, and notes so users can judge reliability.
Methodology
How STATLAS turns raw place data into useful pages
Comparable metrics
Values are normalized only when the original source uses different scales. Raw units stay visible wherever possible.
Useful page quality
Pages publish only when enough data exists for a useful summary, table, FAQs, related links, and source context.
Refresh cadence
Automated refreshes update public World Bank and Wikidata-backed records on a regular schedule, with source and date labels kept visible.
