Gender Info 2007 is a global database of gender statistics and indicators on a wide range of policy areas, including: population, families, health, education, work, and political participation. It can be used by governments, international organizations, advocacy groups, researchers and others in need of statistics for planning, analysis, advocacy and awareness-raising. Users will find in Gender Info an easy-to-use tool to shed light on gender issues through customizable tables, graphs and maps. It is an initiative of the United Nations Statistics Division, produced in collaboration with the United Nations Children Fund (UNICEF) and the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA).

The Environment Statistics Database of the UN Statistics Division (UNSD) contains selected water (e.g. intern flow, precipitation, fresh wat, wastewater, total population supplied by water supply industry) and waste (e.g., hazardous waste treated or disposed, hazardous waste recycled, waste incinerated, waste generated) statistics by country. Statistics on water and waste are based on official statistics supplied by national statistical offices and/or ministries of environment (or equivalent institutions) in countries in response to the biennial UNSD/UNEP Questionnaire on Environment Statistics. They were complemented by data on EU and OECD member and partner countries from Eurostat and OECD. The online database includes data starting in 1990.

The ADIMA dataset includes 500 of the world's largest multinational enteprises (MNE), providing information such as where MNEs are located, how they operate, and where they pay taxes. The data is broken down according to four components: 1) a physical register offering a comprehensive view of each MNE and its subsidiaries, 2) a digital register showing all websites belonging to each MNE, 3) indicators providing harmonized data the global level, and 4) monitoring data identifying events like large company restructurings that can give early warnings of potential significant impacts on trade, GDP and FDI data.

The Observatory of Economic Complexity (OEC) is an online data visualization and distribution platform focused on the geography and dynamics of economic activities. The OEC data is predicated on both an Economic Complexity Index (ECI) and a Product Complexity Index (PCI). The ECI predicts important macroeconomic outcomes, including a country's level of income, economic growth, income inequality, and greenhouse gas emissions. It has also been estimated using diverse data sources, such as trade data, employment data, stock market data, and patent data. The PCI measures the complexity required to produce a product or engage in an economic activity.

ITU's World Telecommunication/ICT Indicators Database is the main source of global, and internationally comparable, telecommunication/ICT statistics. It includes time series for more than 140 indicators and around 200 economies. The data are collected directly from telecommunication regulatory agencies and/or ministries and national statistical offices by means of an annual questionnaire, and subsequently verified, harmonized and complemented by ITU. The statistics are used to track and benchmark the information society, to monitor the digital divide and to identify market potential and investment opportunities. Statistics available include fixed-telephone subscriptions, mobile-cellular telephone subscriptions, and percentage of individuals using the internet.

Movement provides data and tools for cities to more deeply understand and address urban transportation challenges. Movement harnesses this insight to help cities achieve their strategic goals: from reducing congestion and emissions, to improving road safety. The datasets leverage anonymous GPS information from hundreds of thousands of UBER vehicles and tracks changes over time. Data covered includes travel times (measures zone-to-zone travel times across some cities), speed (street speeds across a city to enable data-driven city planning), and new mobility heatmaps (volume of activity of mobility devices for select cities).
