Since 2016, Cabinet Office has been operating the Economic, Fiscal, and Livelihood Indicators "MIERUKA (Visualization)" Database (Cabinet Office) , which allows users to download various data-related indicators, in order to visualize them and use them for more detailed analysis and verification.

In response to requests from users of the "visualization" database, renewal policies were established to improve operability and searchability, and to support a variety of analysis methods.
