What do we mean by “Dynamic Graphics”… : What do we mean by “Dynamic Graphics”… Graphics that help us to understand and digest knowledge in a simple and intelligent way. Graphics that can show moving pictures Graphics that “speak” clearly to all audiences Graphics that can use time-series Graphics that can show multidimensional pictures Graphics where it is possible to go further into the depths of the data. To be able to go directly behind the graph to interrogate the information in more detail, if so required.


Why we are interested in Dynamic Graphics : Why we are interested in Dynamic Graphics To clearly disseminate statistical data as knowledge But…. It should be easy to plug into OECD.Stat SDMX-ML should be clearly presentable on the web Flash & Flex should be usable also for publications Àpollo and PDF


Why Adobe® Flex™ was our choice… : Why Adobe® Flex™ was our choice… A seminar was help in Rome this year, to scan the market regarding currently available products which use dynamic graphics.

This development will be based on SDMX-ML Adobe® will collaborative with the OECD for this pilot development.
