Data Dictionary

Sector The Sector indicates what is being provided at the site of the project. This is unique to each project and while it is guided by the company involved, a company may have projects in multiple sectors.

    Function Function describes the business activity conducted at the project, such as manufacturing, sales, extraction, construction, or R&D.

      Tag Tags enable users to refine searches with additional technological and political criteria of interest, not fully covered by standard classifications. Examples range from business areas like Blockchain to current events such as Coronavirus.

        Technology Level Projects are classified by Technology Level, based on definitions from the OECD, EU, and BEA:

        • High Tech: Significant R&D investment, cutting-edge technologies, high innovation, often involving advanced manufacturing, biotechnology, aerospace, and IT. Typically involves a high proportion of skilled labour.

          • Medium Tech: Combines advanced and traditional manufacturing, with moderate R&D and technology integration. Common in automotive, chemical, and machinery industries.

            • Low Tech: Minimal R&D, reliance on established processes, typically in labour-intensive sectors like textiles, food processing, and basic metal production.

              Project Type

                      Capex Capital expenditure (capex) reflects the total investment from all involved parties. For phased investments, the initial amount is recorded.
