The system of statistical indicators of museum activities (hereinafter referred to as the system) is intended for the compilation and electronic representation of indicators and their values listed in annual statistical reports of museum activities. The system makes visible and analyses data for statistical reports of all Lithuanian museums registered in the system, and makes visible the changes in the most important indicators. The data comparison function provides even better opportunities for analysing the data contained in the system (see Report Filter at the end of this text). By selecting the desired fields, it is possible to compile a comparative report on statistical indicators and to download the report ("Pasirinkite metus" - Select Year; "Pasirinkite muziejų" - Select Museum; "Pasirinkite rodiklį" - Select Indicator).
