Abstract

AbstractWe provide an overview on the development of a tracker of economic activities and societal issues across EU member states mining alternative data sources, that can be used to complement official statistics. Considered alternative datasets include Google Searches, Dow Jones Data, News and Analytics (DNA), and the Global Dataset of Events, Language and Tone (GDELT). After providing an overview on the methodology under current development, some preliminary findings are also given.
