What you can do with it
Use the sector's own vocabulary — Segment definitions come from the people who coined them.
Tell a trade body from a vendor — An industry position and one company's marketing are kept apart.
Find the structure of a market — How an industry divides itself is usually the first thing an outsider needs.
Read the primary material — The published document, not a summary of a summary.

A new record is a newly published document. A revision replaces the text on the record that already exists rather than adding a second one, so the count does not double.
Where it stops
It is not neutral analysis. This is what an industry says about itself — read it as a source, never as a verdict.
It is not a market-size database. Where a figure appears it belongs to whoever published it, with all that implies.
