ODIN Score

Summary scores for 2018.

All summary scores are weighted. When using standard ODIN weights, category scores are weighted to make the shares of social, economic, and environmental statistics equal in the overall score. Coverage and openness elements are equally weighted. Summary scores and subscores are all scaled from 0 to 100.
