sdmx-dl - download SDMX data
SDMX is a standard for exchanging statistical data and sdmx-dl is a tool to download that data.
This project has two parts:

- a command-line tool that allows to easily browse and download data
SDMX is a standard but has the following issues:
- Slightly different interpretation from each provider
- Incomplete; doesn’t’ cover some technical details
- No native support in mainstream applications (Excel, RStudio, …)
- Provides easy and reliable data retrieval
- Allows data discovery and automation
- Corrects deviations from the standard
- Takes care of technical difficulties
- Is designed to be integrated into other applications
