What the files contain

CSV files hold one row per table row, with the unit in each column name, then a note, whether the row is verified, the URLs of its sources and the date they were last read. A range is written as low-high. JSON files add the column labels and the full source records.

A row counts as verified only when enough of its sources were read on a recorded date and agree with it. The methodology sets out the rule.
