Nuclear Trade Atlas Data 2016-2020

QR code

The slice of world trade data underlying the Nuclear Trade Atlas is made available here, covering the trade period 2016-2020. The data is published in three sets. The first, named Nuclear Trade Atlas Data, is the main set. It includes trade flow data between countries in nuclear commodities over time. The second set, named Nuclear Commodities RCA Data, provides the estimation of the Revealed Comparative Advantage by countries in the trade of nuclear commodities for the time period of reference. The third set, named Total Trade Data, includes trade measures by countries in all commodities (nuclear and non strategic). This is of use to compute the share of nuclear trade versus all trade.
