About datasets

There are 6 datasets with identical visa requirements data. Three datasets are matrix and three are long (tidy) format. Each comes in 3 versions: with country codes as specified in ISO-2 (two-letter codes), ISO-3 (three-letter codes), and full country names from no particular standard.

In distance matrices (files with matrix in the filename), the first column represents a passport (=from), each remaining column represents a destination (=to).
Files in tidy format (with tidy in filename) have three columns: passport (from), destination (to), and the requirement.

Dataset values

For visa-free regimes, the number of days (a positive integer) is specified whenever available. When not available, visa free code is used (for example, in the EU countries with the freedom of movement days are not limited).
