Can I include my own data?

Yes you can.

The RAPS input files are completely transparent ASCII files with semicolon-separated formatting. Each file includes a header section, which explains the data fields. You can easily produce your own input files if you want to include specific data sets. Any text editor or spreadsheet program (MS-Word, MS-Excel) can be used for that purpose.

Of course, you can also save (and later re-load) the specifications for specialized development indicators, such as the weights of the included variables or the index names.
