Datasets and documentation

Here you can download datasets and corresponding documentation of the datasets generated in the PRONTO project. Please keep in mind that these papers and databases provide a snapshot view of what is in reality a set of moving targets. Data are often under review, updating, and revision. Updated versions of all datasets will be published here on a periodic basis.

Brief Name	Status and Brief Description	Resource Links	Relationship to WPs and Deliverables
Consolidated R-Image	This R-image contains the main datasets of the PRONTO project. For an overview see the codebook.	Data	This item is linked to: PRONTO workpackages WP1, WP2, and WP3; and is part of deliverable D1.4. It incorporates other deliverables as detailed below.
Export processing zones	This dataset provides information on use of export processing and special economic zones. The accompanying paper analyses the impact on trade patterns.	(i) paper (ii) documentation (iii) data	This item is linked to: PRONTO workpackages WP1 and WP2; and PRONTO deliverables D1.4, D2.1.
Domestic environmental taxes	Consolidated information on environmental policies from the OECD databases.	(i) documentation (ii) data	This item is linked to: PRONTO workpackages WP1; and PRONTO deliverables D1.4.
NTM-MAP	This database contains processed indicators measuring the incidence of Non-Tariff Measures by using different methodologies, calculated from raw data from the UNCTAD multilateral database.	(i) documentation (ii) data	This item is linked to: PRONTO workpackages WP1; and PRONTO deliverables D1.4.
Extended services STRIs	This database is an extension of the services STRI data from the World Bank. Based on a re-processing of the original underlying regulatory classification data, these data offer both intra-EU and extra-EU STRI estimates for most EU Member States. This is the interim release of the data.	(i) documentation (ii) data	This item is linked to: PRONTO workpackages WP1; and PRONTO deliverables D1.4.
Border Rejection	This database extends the HS codes of the EU RASFF border rejection data via text matching techniques.	(i) paper (ii) data	This item is linked to: PRONTO workpackages WP2; and PRONTO deliverables D2.2.
Procurement	These data provide a mapping from GTA-based notifications of public procurement and subsidies, centred on the years before and after the crisis, product groups and trading partners. These data are relatively aggregated. A more detailed mapping to affected HS categories, along with a database of pairwise trade in these products suitable for gravity analysis is available under the GTA-BACI mapping.	(i) background paper (ii) Crisis measures (iii) GTA-BACI mapping (iv) paper	This item is linked to: PRONTO workpackages WP1 and WP2; and PRONTO deliverables D1.4, D2.5, D2.6
NTM notifications	These data are based on notifications of measures by WTO Members. There has been a large amount of processing, using text-based analysis, to map these NTM notifications to NTM categories and also to affected products.	(i) paper (ii) data	This item is linked to: PRONTO workpackages WP1; and PRONTO deliverables D1.4. It is also an inpuit for futher data and anlysis under WP3 and D3.1 and D3.2.
NTMs and value chains	These data provide cumulative bilateral-trade restrictiveness indices (BRIs) using the AVEs of NTMs and tariffs taking into account backward linkages. In a three-stage approach, the cumulative impacts of trade policy measures along GVCs using the world input-output database (WIOD) are quantified. In the first stage, bilateral import demand elasticities consistent with WIOD classification have been estimated. In the second stage, bilateral ad-valorem equivalents (AVE) of nine types of NTMs notified to the WTO by the end of 2011 are quantified (see the notifications data under WP1). Then the cumulative indexes are calculated.	GVCs (i) original paper (ii) updated paper (April 2017 draft) (iii) final paper (iv) data Demand elasticities (i) paper (ii) data AVEs (i) paper (ii) data	This item is linked to: PRONTO workpackages WP1 and WP3; and PRONTO deliverables D1.4 and D3.1.
Services and productivity	These data provide evidence linking NTMs in services to productivity in goods. They build on data from elsewhere in WP1 and WP3.	(i) paper (ii) data	This item is linked to: PRONTO workpackages WP1 and WP3; and PRONTO deliverables D1.4 and D3.2.
PCA-based NTM indexes	These data provide PCA-based NTM indexes on the HS sector level. It summarises the information in the Global Trade Alert, wiiw's WTO notifications, and NTM TRAINS to MFN-type rankings of countries.	(i) paper (ii) data	This item is linked to: PRONTO workpackage WP4 and deliverable D4.3.
