Reaching an indicator
Click any indicator card in the catalog (at/indicators or from search results) to navigate to its detail page at /indicator/:id.
Page layout overview
The page is divided into three main areas:- Header — indicator name, description, and navigation dropdowns.
- Chart panel — interactive time-series visualization with type and granularity controls.
- Sidebar — two collapsible panels: Ferramentas (Tools) for data filters and Opções (Options) for exports.
Navigation workflow
Open an indicator
Click an indicator card from the catalog or search results. The page loads at
/indicator/:id.Change domain with IndicatorDropdowns
The IndicatorDropdowns component at the top of the page lets you navigate without going back to the catalog:
- Select a Domain from the first dropdown.
- The Subdomain dropdown updates to show only dimensions within that domain.
- Select a Subdomain to filter the indicator list.
- Select an Indicator from the third dropdown.
Explore the chart
The chart loads the most recent data by default. Use the chart controls to zoom, change granularity, or apply a date range filter. See Working with charts for full details.
Use the Ferramentas panel
Open the Ferramentas (Tools) sidebar panel to access:
- Granularity buttons: Raw, Dia, Sem, Mês, Ano.
- Start date and End date inputs to narrow the time window.
- Reset button to clear all filters and return to the default view.
Export data or image
Open the Opções (Options) sidebar panel to access:
- Exportar CSV — download the current data as a CSV file.
- Exportar como imagem — save the chart as a PNG.
- Copiar Referência — copy the URL of this indicator to your clipboard.
Chart panel
The chart displays time-series data for the indicator. By default it loads the most recent data points. Key controls:- Chart type — switch between Line and Bar using the icons in the Views component above the chart.
- Toolbar — zoom in by clicking and dragging, pan with the pan tool, and reset the view with the reset button.
- Lazy loading — when you zoom or pan to the left edge of the chart (older data), the platform automatically fetches additional historical data points. A loading indicator appears while data is being retrieved.
Indicator metadata panel
The metadata panel below the chart shows structured information about the indicator:| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Source | The organization or system that provides the data |
| Scale | Geographic or administrative scope |
| Unit | Unit of measurement (e.g., %, nights, tonnes) |
| Periodicity | How frequently data is updated (e.g., monthly, annual) |
| Governance | Whether this is classified as a governance indicator |
| Domain | Top-level thematic area |
| Subdomain | Dimension within the domain |
Sources table
Below the metadata panel, the Sources table lists all data sources linked to this indicator. Each row shows:- Name — the name of the linked resource.
- Start period — the earliest date covered by this source.
- End period — the most recent date covered by this source.
- CSV icon — click to download data from this specific source as a CSV file.
An indicator can have multiple sources, each covering a different time period. If you need data from a specific source only, use the per-source CSV export in the Sources table rather than the global export.
