摘要

In 2007, JRC-IPTS started to develop concepts for data consolidation, harmonisation and management together with external partners. Building on the experience of this project, JRC-IPTS began a second initiative in 2009, together with the PROGNOZ software company to design and implement a software platform for data harmonisation and management. The resulting product, DataM, is a database management tool intended to simplify the daily data work of analysts and modellers. DataM helpsfacilitates them feeding economic models with data, checking statistical information or analysing results.
