Sources & methodology

Original source
World Bank · SP.DYN.LE00.IN. Follow the indicator link for underlying providers and metadata.
Scope & missing values
All 216 countries and territories with a finite 2024 observation in our input are included. Regional and income-group totals are not ranked. No missing values are filled with zero. All entries in this indicator’s input have the same observation year. This is the coverage of our snapshot, not a claim of complete global coverage.
Ranking calculation
Values are ordered from highest to lowest at full precision. Equal values share a rank, with the next rank skipped (1, 1, 3). Tied rows are ordered alphabetically. Search filters rows without recalculating ranks. Higher values do not necessarily mean better outcomes.
Dates & revisions
Observation year: 2024. Input metadata date: 2026-04-08; input file generated: 2026-04-29. The original retrieval time is not recorded. Earth Data 360 release: 2026-10-15. Source revisions appear only in a new release; existing version files are preserved. No daily update is implied.
Interpretation
This period measure describes how long a newborn would live under the mortality rates of the observation year. It is not a forecast of an individual’s lifespan.
Reuse & attribution
The linked World Bank indicators are licensed under CC BY 4.0. Credit the World Bank and the underlying providers listed on the indicator page, link to the license, and indicate changes. Earth Data 360 filters to 2024, sorts and calculates ranks.
