Description

Eora

This database provides high-resolution input-output tables, including 186 individual economies and identifying 26 sectors for each economy (Lenzen et al., 2012; Lenzen, Moran, et al., 2012; Lenzen et al., 2013).

EXIOBASE

This database covers about 40 countries or regions and is applicable to regional emissions studies (Bjelle et al., 2020; Stadler et al.).

Global Trade Analysis Project (GTAP)

This database provides a database of harmonized input-output tables and trade data which can be used to construct MRIO tables (Andrew Peters, 2013; Meng et al., 2018; Peters, 2007).

World Input-Output Database (WIOD)

This database contains the input-output tables with the information of 40 countries and regions throughout the world and rest region as ROW (27 EU countries and 13 other major countries) (Dietzenbacher et al. 2013; Timmer et al. 2015).

Asian International Input-Output Tables (AIIOTs)

This database mainly focuses on the Asian Pacific economies (Meng et al., 2013).

Full International and Global Accounts for Research in Input–Output Analysis (FIGARO)

This database mainly focuses on the EU (Rémond-Tiedrez Rueda-Cantuche, 2018).

The Global Resource Input–Output Assessment Model (GLORIA) MRIO database

This database provides a global perspective on resource input-output (Lenzen et al., 2017, 2021).

OECD’s Inter-Country Input-Output Database (ICIO)

This database provides input-output data for 34 sectors, up to 70 regions (OECD 2015).

Global Trade Analysis Project MRIO table (GTAP-MRIOT)

This database provides input-output data for 57 sectors, 120 countries/regions (Peters et al. 2011b).

EMERGING

This database provides valuable input-output data for various sectors and regions, complementing the GTAP database. It contributes to understanding the interdependencies between different sectors and regions, providing a comprehensive view of the global economy (EMERGING, n.d.).
