# Open data

Download WHO, JASSO, Asia-Pacific and China WGOC BMI cut-offs as CSV plus datapackage.json. Capture date 11 June 2026. CC-BY 4.0.

## Quick answer

BMI classification thresholds for WHO, Asia-Pacific, Japan (JASSO) and China (WGOC) are published as a Frictionless Data Package. Last verified 11 June 2026 from the named authorities. License CC-BY 4.0. Not medical advice.

## Where do I download the files?

The descriptor is /data/datapackage.json (mirrored at /.well-known/datapackage.json ). The table is /data/bmi-standards.csv . Each row names the authority and the source URL we checked.

## Who should not treat this as a clinical dataset?

Anyone making an individual diagnosis. These are population screening cut-offs. Children, pregnancy, and high-muscle athletes need a different interpretation — the calculator page says so. Tax and salary figures stay in the page engines until we can publish them with the same capture-date discipline.
