Release: v1.0.0 – Regional Matrices Analysis (MUST4Water Project)
Release Date: October 18, 2024.
Overview: This release, version 1.0.0, contains the initial implementation of the R code developed as part of the MUST4Water project. It automates the process of extracting and saving sectoral trade matrices from multi-regional input-output (MRIO) data for regional analysis. The focus is on transforming complex MRIO data into useful regional matrices and exporting them into an Excel file for further analysis.
Features:
Efficient extraction of six 43x6 matrices, each representing sectoral trade data for six regions: NW, NE, Toscana, Centro, Sud, and Ext.
Transposes the data into sector-wise matrices and organizes them by region.
Exports the matrices into a single Excel file with separate sheets for each region.
Designed to support regional socio-economic analysis in water management, part of the MUST4Water project.
Usage: The code reads the multi-regional input-output data, processes it into regional sector matrices, and exports the results into an Excel file for easy access and analysis.
Notes: This is the first release of the code. Future releases may include enhancements for data handling, error checking, and optimizations based on feedback.
