Most of the data used in the water preprocessor comes from the AQUASTAT database. [http://www.fao.org/nr/water/aquastat/main/index.stm http://www.fao.org/nr/water/aquastat/main/index.stm]<span style="font-size:medium;"> </span> | |||
The AQUASTAT database can be queried on-line and the query results can be downloaded in CSV (table or flat) format. The current database regroups data per 5-year period and shows for each variable the value for the most recent year during that period, if available. For example, if for the period 2003-2007 data are available for the year 2004 and for the year 2006, then the value for the year 2006 is shown. Also, for many variables no time series can be made available yet due to lack of sufficient data. Data collection began in 1958.<br/><br/>Data for the variable [4313] "Area equipped for irrigation: total" is collected by and available in both AQUASTAT and FAOSTAT and harmonization between AQUASTAT and FAOSTAT takes place on a regular basis to ensure consistency between the two. The difference between the two is that AQUASTAT only enters data for the year given in the reference, while FAOSTAT fills all years from 1961 onwards by inter- and extrapolation from the common data-points. Thus, time series on this variable can be found under [http://faostat3.fao.org/download/E/EL/E FAOSTAT land], choosing the last variable in "items": Total area equipped for irrigation. For other non-water related time-series on food and agriculture see the [http://faostat3.fao.org/home/E FAOSTAT home page]. | |||
= Metadata = | |||
== Update Frequency == | |||
==== Varies by Main Database category and sub-category: ==== | |||
#Geography and population category: Every year (through FAOSTAT for land use and population and undernourishment, World Bank for GDP, UNDP for HDI and GII). | |||
#Water resources category: These are long-term average annual values and therefore remain the same over the years. A comprehensive review had been undertaken in 2014. | |||
#Water use category and Irrigation and drainage development category: For Africa, Southern and Central America & Caribbean, and Asia: between 1 and 10 years, depending on data availability which is checked at least every 5 years for each country, and with a thorough update (full dataset) every 10 years together with the country profile update. For Europe, Northern America, Australia and New Zealand: depends on data availability from Eurostat and OECD. | |||
#Updates of data for some specific sub-categories are being done in collaboration with others, as and when data become available, such as: wastewater sub-category in collaboration with IWMI; conservation agriculture sub-category in collaboration with Conservation Agriculture expert groups; access to improved drinking water source sub-category data are provided by the WHO/UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme for Water Supply and Sanitation. | |||
#Some of the variables are updated during major review exercises (see the other datasets below). | |||
== AquaStat Questionnaires and Guidelines == | |||
AQUASTAT uses questionnaires and prepares guidelines with detailed definitions and instructions, implements projects to strengthen national capacities, and holds workshops to clarify some of the more complex data concepts. Survey information is as follows: | |||
To reach the above objective, it has been decided to proceed as follows, with two surveys: | |||
*Every 5-10 years: a detailed global survey to prepare/update country profiles and regional syntheses. This document refers to this survey, which is prepared on the basis of a detailed questionnaire filled in at country level by national and regional experts, under the supervision of FAO/NRL. | |||
*Every year: a small global survey to ensure regular updating of the existing country profiles, of key changes at country level, especially on the area equipped for irrigation and on the institutional and policy aspects. It is done by concerned institutions, which are willing to participate, and is managed in the regional and central offices of FAO. | |||
The 5-10 year survey aims at preparing national country profiles in a homogeneous way. It ensures participation of national experts, in charge of the information collection and report drafting at the country level, and validation by FAO experts. The experts are provided with: | |||
*A detailed questionnaire to be completed for each country at national level (and sub-national level for some variables) on the basis of existing available information | |||
*Detailed guidelines for preparing a country profile and gathering qualitative information | |||
*Explanatory notes and definitions to ensure consistency in the use of concepts and words and facilitate computation | |||
=== Costs === | |||
Costs should be expressed in US$ (United States Dollars) in the questionnaire and country profiles. The conversion used to pass from the local currency to US$ should be the one that was valid in the year to which the value refers and should be indicated in the comments. | |||
== Definitions == | |||
Definitions for every series can be found in this document: [http://www.fao.org/nr/water/aquastat/sets/aq-5yr-guide_eng.pdf  http://www.fao.org/nr/water/aquastat/sets/aq-5yr-guide_eng.pdf ]; | |||

Most of the data used in the water preprocessor comes from the AQUASTAT database. http://www.fao.org/nr/water/aquastat/main/index.stm
The AQUASTAT database can be queried on-line and the query results can be downloaded in CSV (table or flat) format. The current database regroups data per 5-year period and shows for each variable the value for the most recent year during that period, if available. For example, if for the period 2003-2007 data are available for the year 2004 and for the year 2006, then the value for the year 2006 is shown. Also, for many variables no time series can be made available yet due to lack of sufficient data. Data collection began in 1958.
Data for the variable [4313] "Area equipped for irrigation: total" is collected by and available in both AQUASTAT and FAOSTAT and harmonization between AQUASTAT and FAOSTAT takes place on a regular basis to ensure consistency between the two. The difference between the two is that AQUASTAT only enters data for the year given in the reference, while FAOSTAT fills all years from 1961 onwards by inter- and extrapolation from the common data-points. Thus, time series on this variable can be found under FAOSTAT land, choosing the last variable in "items": Total area equipped for irrigation. For other non-water related time-series on food and agriculture see the FAOSTAT home page.
Metadata
Update Frequency
Varies by Main Database category and sub-category:
- Geography and population category: Every year (through FAOSTAT for land use and population and undernourishment, World Bank for GDP, UNDP for HDI and GII).
- Water resources category: These are long-term average annual values and therefore remain the same over the years. A comprehensive review had been undertaken in 2014.
- Water use category and Irrigation and drainage development category: For Africa, Southern and Central America & Caribbean, and Asia: between 1 and 10 years, depending on data availability which is checked at least every 5 years for each country, and with a thorough update (full dataset) every 10 years together with the country profile update. For Europe, Northern America, Australia and New Zealand: depends on data availability from Eurostat and OECD.
- Updates of data for some specific sub-categories are being done in collaboration with others, as and when data become available, such as: wastewater sub-category in collaboration with IWMI; conservation agriculture sub-category in collaboration with Conservation Agriculture expert groups; access to improved drinking water source sub-category data are provided by the WHO/UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme for Water Supply and Sanitation.
- Some of the variables are updated during major review exercises (see the other datasets below).
AquaStat Questionnaires and Guidelines
AQUASTAT uses questionnaires and prepares guidelines with detailed definitions and instructions, implements projects to strengthen national capacities, and holds workshops to clarify some of the more complex data concepts. Survey information is as follows:
To reach the above objective, it has been decided to proceed as follows, with two surveys:
- Every 5-10 years: a detailed global survey to prepare/update country profiles and regional syntheses. This document refers to this survey, which is prepared on the basis of a detailed questionnaire filled in at country level by national and regional experts, under the supervision of FAO/NRL.
- Every year: a small global survey to ensure regular updating of the existing country profiles, of key changes at country level, especially on the area equipped for irrigation and on the institutional and policy aspects. It is done by concerned institutions, which are willing to participate, and is managed in the regional and central offices of FAO.
The 5-10 year survey aims at preparing national country profiles in a homogeneous way. It ensures participation of national experts, in charge of the information collection and report drafting at the country level, and validation by FAO experts. The experts are provided with:
- A detailed questionnaire to be completed for each country at national level (and sub-national level for some variables) on the basis of existing available information
- Detailed guidelines for preparing a country profile and gathering qualitative information
- Explanatory notes and definitions to ensure consistency in the use of concepts and words and facilitate computation
Costs
Costs should be expressed in US$ (United States Dollars) in the questionnaire and country profiles. The conversion used to pass from the local currency to US$ should be the one that was valid in the year to which the value refers and should be indicated in the comments.
Definitions
Definitions for every series can be found in this document: http://www.fao.org/nr/water/aquastat/sets/aq-5yr-guide_eng.pdf
