Abstract
Abstract We present and analyze the dataset on the international distribution of industrial robots by country, industry, and application provided by the International Federation of Robotics (IFR) since 1993. After describing the IFR we point out specificities and limitations of its dataset. We explain the process of data collection, develop a correspondence table between the IFR industry classification and the ISIC rev. 4 industry classification, and clarify the applied compliance rules. We further compute average implicit depreciation rates inherent to the robot stocks in the IFR dataset in the range of 4–7% per year between 1993 and 2019. We also find that the share of industrial robots that are not classified to any industry or application has sharply declined since 2005.
期刊介绍：
Die Jahrbücher für Nationalökonomie und Statistik existieren seit dem Jahr 1863. Die Herausgeber fühlen sich der Tradition verpflichtet, die Zeitschrift für kritische, innovative und entwicklungsträchtige Beiträge offen zu halten. Weder thematisch noch methodisch sollen die Veröffentlichungen auf jeweils herrschende Lehrmeinungen eingeengt werden.
