EITI hosted a datathon in September 2022 to encourage innovation in the use of public data in planning for the energy transition. This video explains the winning prototype, the PREDIC Tool, submitted by Marco Zaplan.
ABOUT THE PREDIC TOOL PROTOTYPE
PREDIC Tool is fiscal modeling made simple. The tool aims to answer three general questions from the perspective of the government: (1) how much revenues are we going to collect, (2) what happens when prices change, and (3) how can we allocate the revenues collected. The tool is relevant to national and local economic planning agencies for scenario planning purposes but it can also be used as a capacity building tool for EITI Secretariats and an advocacy tool for civil society organizations.
Note to users: The tool is currently a prototype version. Actual data was used and analyzed using a hypothetical fiscal regime and assumptions. The output data in the prototype is not accurate and is for demonstrative purposes only.
