How to use the digital platform
Tips and tricks
– There is a wide range of statistics from abstraction to charges – Select the Statistic Type of data from the list.
– Depending on the statistic type, you can make a selection of a volume for 100 m³ or 200 m³ and for the years between 2014 and 2023 – Choose the Volume/Year.
– If you want to compare, please select all cities and/or all countries in the pop-up menu or mark the preferred selection – Select the Countries/Cities.
– Click the Generate button to see the data you’ve selected.
– You can Sort by ascending or descending on a specific parameter.
– By hovering on the bar, you can read the value.
– By hovering over the country/city, you can consult the available explanatory notes. Extensive notes can be consulted by clicking to view more details.
– Click the Share button to save the results or share them with others.
Interpreting the graphs correctly:
– The explanatory notes give more background information to interpret the data in the right way.
– All data are on country and city level, NOT on a company level.
– All financial data are converted to US$, the latest known exchange rate of December 2019.
– The exchange rates vary in time. Therefore it is not possible to compare charges in time.
