Informa Economics Data Services
(IEData)
IEData is one of
the most comprehensive agricultural databases available today.
IEData is a
full-featured, network-ready database manager designed specifically for time
series data.
Specially created
add-ins access the data without leaving the spreadsheet environment.
Instant access to
thousands of different data series, from daily cash prices to worldwide supply
and demand estimates.
The IEData add-in for Microsoft
ExcelTM (Currently only 32-bit) is designed to give you access to all of the data stored in
the system from within the ExcelTM spreadsheet or workbook. With this add-in, you have access to
thousands of time series, without having to know where the data is stored, or
the structure of the data. For many of
our time series, we also compute weekly and monthly aggregates, where
applicable.
The core data is stored on an Informa
Economics' database server with only a menu database which needs to be installed
locally on your computer or your company network.
The fast response of the IEData add-in for
ExcelTM allows you navigate the menu system and pull requested data
over the internet. A more advanced use
of IEData and the IEData add-in would be thru the use of macros and custom
spreadsheets to automatically request updated data with the use of the IEData
functions.
Currently, there are over 38,000 data series with
440,000 points of information ranging from the actual precipitation for wheat in
Romania in 1965 to the latest beef trimmings prices in
Omaha or the latest barge movement of corn on the
Mississippi
River. With this vast
database, you can spend more time analyzing trends, etc.. rather than keying in
data.
The IEData add-in for
Microsoft ExcelTM and access to the IEData databases are available as
a subscription item to Informa Economics retainer clients. For more
information, please contact your Informa Economics
representative.
