Estimate
Score, confidence interval, domain outcomes and approved secondary indicators.
Open aggregate access
Data designed to be cited, checked and reused.
Public aggregate results and metadata should remain freely accessible. Personal data, assessment content, proprietary algorithms and security-sensitive material remain protected.
Research Preview downloads
Founding aggregate dataset.
The current release contains country-level adult and youth means from the internal benchmark workbook. Every value is labeled as a research observation rather than an official score.
Public data model
Every certified release will include the context needed to interpret it.
Population
Target ages, geography, coverage, gross sample and effective sample size.
Method
Fieldwork dates, administration mode, language, weights and methodology version.
Quality
Certification status, quality badge, exclusions, limitations and audit information.
Governance
Funding, material conflicts, implementation partner and correction history.
Citation
Stable profile URL, release date, downloadable table and machine-readable metadata.
Access principles
Open where possible, protected where necessary
The Observatory intends to release public aggregate scores and metadata under an open attribution license or equivalent. Individual records are never part of the public download. Test items and security-sensitive information are excluded to preserve assessment integrity.
Responsible reuse
Users must preserve status labels, uncertainty and methodology version. Research observations cannot be relabeled as official scores. Country aggregates cannot be used to infer the ability or worth of an individual.
Future API
The static JSON endpoint in this prototype demonstrates the planned machine-readable structure. The production API should add versioning, release identifiers, status history, regional hierarchies and formal data-license metadata.
