This dataset provides the basic building blocks for the USEEIO v1.1 model and life cycle results per $1 (2013 USD) demand for all goods and services in the model in the producer's price (see BEA 2015). The methodology underlying USEEIO is described in Yang, Ingwersen et al., 2017, with updates for v1.1 described in documentation supporting other USEEIO v1.1 datasets. This dataset is in the form of standard matrices. USEEIOv1.1 uses original names for goods and services, to distinguish them from the sector names provided by BEA which reflect industry names and not commodity names, but the BEA codes are maintained. The main model matrices are in green, A, B, and C; the result matrices are in gold, D, L, LCI, and U. Aggregate data quality scores are presented for B, D and U matrices in peach. Data quality scores use the US EPA data quality asssessment system, see US EPA 2016. Aggregated scores are calculated using a flow-weighted average approach as described in Edelen and Ingwersen 2017.
