Abstract: The article presents methodological details regarding the calculation of regional indicators of economic complexity, which have been introduced in the new version of the DataViva platform launched in 2023. This updated platform includes three new indicators, derived from the original methodology of economic complexity, which was initially formulated based on export data. However, in this new version, the methodology has been adapted to utilize employment and occupation data from RAIS, addressing the issues associated with regional-level export data. This adaptation also allows for a flexible definition of regions by aggregating municipal data. The newly introduced indicators are as follows: (i) regional economic complexity indicator (ICE-R); (ii) activity complexity indicator (ICA-R); and (iii) activity density indicator (D), which can be used to calculate the productive coherence indicator (CP) of the regions. Additionally, the article describes the methodology employed for constructing the Activity Space.
