Scientific Description
The software is structured in three different modules:
the database module stores all the input-output data coming from Eurostat, OCDE, Insee or other sources.
the computation module performs the input-output calculations
the visualization module displays the results in a synthetic manner.
The database module is based on the SQlite format and makes use of SQL to manipulate the various tables involved in the process. The goal of this module is to provide a normalized data interface for the computation module, from various types of input-output data which are often stored as Excel sheet on web sites.
Functional Description
The purpose of this software is to automatize most of the work of standard input-output analysis and to visualize the results in a user-friendly way in order to efficiently address related environmental questions.
