This dataset provides information on expected achievements (targets) set for ERDF and Cohesion Fund programmes **specific indicators** defined by national and regional programmes, the decided (forecasts from selected projects) and implemented values.

The reference date for the annual reporting of progress by the programmes achievements is the end of each calendar year.
This dataset contains:
- Time series of the cumulative amounts reported annually for decided and implemented values (i.e. 2016 values include the 2015 values);
- To avoid double counting, the cumulative values from different years **should NOT be aggregated**;
- Allows comparison of the targets year on year (targets change with reallocation of financial resources);
- Allows comparison of decided (forecast) and implemented values with the targets set (allowing users to calculate the % rate of progress);

For more information on the common indicators' definitions used by each fund please go to the "Related Information" sections at the bottom of the fund specific pages and the data on the **common indicators** is available in this separate dataset: https://cohesiondata.ec.europa.eu/2014-2020/ESIF-2014-2020-Achievement-Details/aesb-873i

The Database (DB) of 2014 - 2020 ERDF and CF monitoring indicators at the project level contains data on the target and achieved values of both common and programme-specific output indicators. The database covers 24 Member States and 245 operational programmes: 187 national and regional programmes out of 217 and 53 Cooperation Programme out of 76. Overall, the database contains 1,435,059 rows of data by output indicator.

The Database of Indicators is interlinked with the Database of operations and the Database of beneficiaries through a unique ad-hoc identifier of the operation, allowing linking the data on output indicators to the related operation and beneficiaries and vice versa. The Database of indicators includes data for a total of 421,629 operations.
