This package provides a set of classes and methods to read data and metadata
documents exchanged through the Statistical Data and Metadata Exchange (SDMX)
framework, currently focusing on the SDMX XML standard format (SDMX-ML).
.
SDMX is an initiative to foster standards for the exchange of statistical
information. It is sponsored by several major providers of statistical
information: the Bank for International Settlements, the European Central
Bank, Eurostat (the statistical office of the European Union), the
International Monetary Fund (IMF), the Organisation for Economic Co-operation
and Development (OECD), the United Nations Statistics Division, the United
Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization and the World Bank.
.
The package can therefore be used to download statistical information from the
servers of those organizations, and from those of several other institutions.
