* The label for this dataset deviates from the standard naming convention since it was released before the current naming convention was put into practise. This dataset contains input data on a selection of the predictors that informed the ViEWS-ESCWA model. In this case, 2021_05 refers to the release date of the dataset. 01 is a default addition required by the API architecture – it holds no meaning for this specific dataset.
