It should also be noted that each indicator available in the Database contains the corresponding metadata, which can be accessed through the “Mi” icon associated with it in the “Indicators” column. In the metadata sheet, the description of the indicator contains a direct link to the Metadata System, providing access to the related objects available in the different modules of that System.
In addition to the indicators available in the Database, the statistical information disseminated in the publications, press release collections and thematic dossiers – Tourism Satellite Account is also accompanied by metadata, thus enabling a characterisation of its main technical and methodological aspects.
