The coal security resilience of countries along the “Belt and Road” reflects the level of coal security resilience of countries along the route. The higher the data value, the stronger the coal security resilience of countries along the route. The preparation of the coal guarantee resilience data product refers to the national energy statistics of the International Energy Agency, and uses the year-on-year data of the difference between coal supply and consumption in the countries along the “Belt and Road” from 2000 to 2019. Adaptability analysis, through comprehensive diagnosis, prepared and generated coal guarantee resilience products. The data set of coal security resilience of countries along the “Belt and Road” is of great reference significance for analyzing and comparing the current coal security resilience status of various countries.

File naming and required software

File naming: The coal security resilience dataset is stored as an ARCGIS vector data shapefile, and the compressed file name is "coal_security.zip".
Data reading method: After the data is decompressed, it is in ARCGIS vector data shapefile format. Please use ARCGIS software to open it. The value corresponding to the COALSECU field in the data attribute table is the country's coal guarantee resilience.
