It is not designed for visualising results using the Table and Chart buttons. To access the ‘Developer API query builder’, click on the ‘Developer API’ button above. The application programming interface (API), based on the SDMX standard, allows a developer to access the data using simple RESTful URL and HTTP header options for various choices of response formats including JSON. The query filter is generated according to the current data selection. To change the data selection, use the filters on the left. To get started check the API documentation Indicators covered Healthcare resources: physicians, practising nurses, hospital beds and hospital discharges. Health status: life expectancy, infant mortality rate, crude mortality rate, age-adjusted mortality rate. Health risks: obesity, mortality due circulatory and respiratory diseases, air pollution.
