Abstract (at least 300 words to describe your proposal)
The Global Economic Map is a Wikidata project. The goal is to create a standardized economic article (data set) for every country, region and city in the world. The purpose is to systematically organize and centralize economic data from various databases into a single location. This model can be replicated for other data sets and scientific fields helping Wikidata meet its potential. The purpose of this presentation is to inspire new ways of utilizing Wikidata.
