EVE Technology Lab

Hi there,

for a while I have been watching the economy of EVE online. The different QENs have been very useful, that havn't been appearing anymore. Our Dr.EyjoG made his last Devblogentry on the 30th of August 2011.
One thing that interests me a lot, is what data is openly accesable and what isn't.
To me it seems that CCP releases small amounts of data, but very little on an up to date base.
Pricestability is one of my main interests, so 2 areas interest me the most.

1. Gross domestic product (GDP or GUP)

You can find small bits of information on this topic. These bits are all over the Internet and its very hard to understand what measurement method was used. Do you know places where I can find reliable data, that are up to date and transparent? Or at least a good alternative?
One goal is the BIP-Deflator, as an inflation indicator.

2. the different price indices (MPI, PPPI, SPPI, esp. the CPI)

These were an important part of the QENs. But even back then the origin were not made transparent. As an example in the CPI there is talk of "over 4000 individual items", but no word of what they are.
There are 2 different sides when it comes to Market Data (f.e. eve-markets.net, eve-central.com, jitonomic.com, evemarketeer.com) but they usually only reference one product - so microeconomics instead of macroeconomics is in the focus. Do you know any source where I can get reliable macroeconomic data?
