OSPO has made the decision to retire certain products from its portfolio. As part of our ongoing efforts to streamline and focus our resources, these products will no longer receive active development and will be retired. We have compiled a comprehensive table below that lists all the retired products, along with relevant details such as product names, data source and date of retirement. Please refer to the table below for the complete list of retired products.
We appreciate your understanding and encourage you to explore our active product offerings, which receive regular updates and support from our dedicated teams. If you have any further questions regarding the retired products, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our User Services team.
