The International Database on Longevity is the world's second-largest supercentenarian database, after the Gerontology Research Group supercentenarian database, reaching the 1000-case mark in 2015. It was founded in 2002 by Jean-Marie Robine, James Vaupel, and others is based in France. Its primary focus is demographics of supercentenarians. The IDL was founded in coordination with the MPIDR of Germany and also included collaboration from authoritative world contributors.
