INE-SPAIN Services & Retail Sales data

Hello,

I hope you’re all well!

I really enjoy using DBNomics and I was very happy to find that you have INE-SPAIN dataset. However, I’m strugling to find services and retail sales datasets (e.g. ‘1.2.3.2 National rates: general and by distribution class’ available here: https://www.ine.es/dynt3/inebase/en/index.htm?padre=4097&capsel=4106). I suspect that this might be because Services dataset from INE (https://www.ine.es/en/index.htm) was not imported in DBNomics. If that’s correct, would you mind advising me if there are plans to import this dataset in the future?

Thank you very much!

Regards,
Aiste

I added “services” in INE-SPAIN fetcher. Data should be available on DBnomics website tomorrow. Please check and tell me if everything is fine.

Hi @thomasbrand,

Thank you very much for your quick reply & scheduled fix for this! I’ve checked the dataset and your job dashboard this morning - it seems that the scheduled job has failed: https://git.nomics.world/dbnomics-fetchers/ine-spain-fetcher/-/jobs/220135. I hope it’s not a big issue?

Thank you!

Based on the list of datasets here (https://www.ine.es/dyngs//INEbase/en/listaoperaciones.htm), we added datasets of “Services> Global surveys on Services Sector” and “Services > Commerce”. Please check https://db.nomics.world/INE-SPAIN and tell me if something’s wrong.

Hi @thomasbrand,

Thank you very much for adding these datasets!

When I go to “Services >> Commerce”, in DBNomics I only see “Retail Trade Indices >> Results >> Results by Autonomous Community. Base 2015”. But in https://www.ine.es/dyngs//INEbase/en/listaoperaciones.htm, if I go to “Commerce >> Retail Trade Indices >> Results” (https://www.ine.es/dyngs/INEbase/en/operacion.htm?c=Estadistica_C&cid=1254736176900&menu=resultados&idp=1254735576799#!tabs-1254736195063), I see 2 datasets:

  1. National results. Base 2015
  2. Results by Autonomous Community. Base 2015

Is there a reason why “National results. Base 2015” were not imported? Or was this dataset merged to some other dataset? In “National results. Base 2015”, I was looking for this data:
“National results. Base 2015 >> business turnover indices >> constant prices >> Series adjusted for seasonal and calendar effects >> 1.2.3.2 National rates: general and by distribution class”, but I’m not able to locate this in DBNomics.

Thank you very much for your help with this! I appreciate that data is very convoluted and not easy to locate on INE website…

Hi @thomasbrand,

Thank you very much for all your help so far. I was just wondering if there is any chance you have some updates on my question above? i.e. it seems that “National results. Base 2015” for Spain’s retail sales data is missing.

Have a great day,
Aiste

Hello @snaiste,

Thank you for contacting us again. I investigate why we do not have “National results. Base 2015” and I come back to you later.

Have a great day too,

Enzo

Hi @snaiste,

We have added “National Results. Base 2015” data on DBnomics https://db.nomics.world/INE-SPAIN.

Have a great day,

Enzo
