The ESA list identified critical frequencies for which each essential statistic should be produced, as determine by user demand. Over half of the datasets contributing to the essential statistics did not meet the critical frequency, as seen in Table 11.
Table 11: Number and Proportion of Datasets by Critical Frequency
|
| Critical Frequency | Number | Proportion |
|
| Meets critical frequency | 164 | 59% |
| Does not meet critical frequency | 115 | 41% |
|
| Total* | 279 | 100%** |
|
* Some datasets are counted more than once if they contributed to multiple statistics. Whether or not they meet the critical frequency may differ by statistic.
**Percentages may not add to 100% due to rounding
