Big Data and measurement of GDP
Big Data also offers new possibilities for the prediction of GDP: Based on high frequency data timely so-called “nowcasts” can predict current GDP developments in real-time. On the one hand, the project deals with the analysis and classification of existing prediction methods and on the other hand it deals with the development of own, highly precise and timely nowcasts. |
