IMF Data Mapper®
Market Development Comments (0)
The IMF Data Mapper® is an interactive data visualization tool. It provides an intuitive way to access the IMF’s key data.
The data available through the tool dates from 1980 to the present date and users have the option to change the parameters of the line chart to focus on a specific data range.
You can select data from individual countries or for regional and other groups, using the world map or a pull down menu. The tool immediately displays the selected data in chart form. The map and charts are always fully interactive.
You also can also see your chosen data changing over time by using the “play time” feature or sliding the time axis on a line chart to change the shadings on the map to reflect the underlying data at a different time.
Furthermore, you can print or download the charts and maps for use in your own reports.
The data available through the tool is gradually expanding to include additional variables.
