Standardised codes from Recommendation 20, mantained by UNECE.
Data
Data comes from the Excel file, merging Annex I and Annex II/III. It doesn't include units marked as deprecated and removed.
Preparation
- levels.csv is derived from the latest pdf available (Section VII) and explains the categories of the main dataset
- From the Excel spreadsheet we have merged the two Annexes to have the sector and the codes in the same file, removing the symbol and conversion factor columns; entries marked as deprecated (D) or deleted (X) have been removed.
Usage via Jitpack
Jitpack is a service that packages github repositories on-the-fly when you request an archive for the first time and the caches the result.
JVM / Android
The package can be used as a compile-time dependency for JVM / Andriod projects through https://jitpack.io.
- Add the https://jitpack.io repository to your build (Maven, Gradle, …)
- Add the dependency
com.github.datasets:unece-units-of-measure:<name-of-the-tag>
Example:com.github.datasets:unece-units-of-measure:rec20_Rev13e_2017
See the jitpack documentation for further details.
Zip download
Because .jar files are in essence just normal .zip files, it is perfectly possible to use the jitpack artifact as a zip file source for non-JVM usage.
