Data Sources
Statistical and official
EDS gathers source material at scale and turns it into structured data and written intelligence. Each capability below says plainly where it stands: available in Aperture, available on request, or in development.
3,200+ statistical and official data sources, 1.8 million time series and 100 million+ data points. MERI scores 158 countries on readiness for foreign market entry, across 188 indicators.
4.2 million bilateral trade records since 1948 across 6,360 traded commodity codes, with side-by-side country comparisons.
49,000 news and publisher feeds, 7.6 million news articles collected, in dozens of languages. Country briefings are AI-drafted from cited sources and labelled as such.
Sanctions exposure and similar red-flag indicators, shown by country on Aperture country pages and traced to their sources.
A written report on a country or market, produced to order from the same cited sources that feed Aperture.
A file of series or trade data cut to your specification, with the source and licence of each series attached.
We can add sources and collect to a specification: new publishers, registers or statistical series, brought into the same provenance and checking pipeline.
Companies, people, institutions and government bodies named in news are extracted by a working pipeline at pilot scale. Matching them into a shared entity register is in development.
Corporate filings archive (SEC EDGAR) collected; ownership analysis in development.
Every figure traces to its source, retrieval date and licence. Every archived artifact carries a provenance record, and every figure in Aperture shows its source and licence.
Sources tracked means every source in the register: 3,232 data sources plus 49,019 news feeds. Current health of each data source is published on Aperture.
