tiva2018 package

[Charles Cadestin]

Dear Stata users,

https://algobank.oecd.org:4430/CC/ti...-stata-package

Here is test version of a package I wrote for myself but that may help people that want to use OECD international Inter-Country Input-Output (ICIO) tables. This package calculates trade in value added indicators such as those presented on the OECD website: https://stats.oecd.org/Index.aspx?Da...e=TIVA_2018_C1.

I made it as flexible as I could in order to add extra indicators to it.

It uses the from http://www.oecd.org/sti/ind/inter-co...put-tables.htm and unfortunately at this stage the user has to download the data first and to specify the path to the folder of the downloaded data location.

then, after installing it and compiling it, indicators can be calculated with a single line of code.

For instance, after having downloaded and extracted the package and downloaded the data:

clear all
net install tiva2018, from("G:\develop\tiva\test15may2020\tiva2018-stata-package-master\tiva2018-stata-package-master") replace
tiva2018_compile
tiva2018 calc, indicator(OECD_EXGR_DVA) path("path/to/data") clear year(2011) cou(FRA)

This is the first time I post a package and make it public. I hope I am doing it through the right channel and of course, if you have any thought, any suggestion, I am all ears.

Best regards,

Charles.

You should probably submit your package to the SSC. Next step could be writing an article for the Stata Journal to introduce your package to a wider audience.
As a side note: You should change "from("G:\develop\tiva\test15may2020\tiva2018-stata-package-master\tiva2018-stata-package-master")" to something which is not located on your computer.
