Integrated Reporting - Website Data Tool

A company website data tool is a standalone feature designed to compile, isolate, export and display publicly-available data spread out through multiple disclosure sources according to users’ preferences. It is based on data that a company determines will be valuable to users. A data tool allows users to create and store customized data lists, tables and charts, but should not permit them to overlay multiple, disparate data points for comparison. For an example, refer to the PotashCorp DataTool (illustrated) and view the explanatory DataTool Demo Video.
