Data unit is % of land area, but the y-axis and data label values are clearly not percents

I will make part of the admin section editable so you can edit units

My concern is also that the incorrect data is being pulled in. If you look at the World Bank source URL, it's pulling from a page that has % as the units, too. So I don't know where the numbers in FIND are coming from.

It is coming from a field in the database that is mostly empty. We put in preliminary values. That "% of land area" was input by someone on the databank site.

If you go to the admin section->Reports-> Indicators, you can see which are empty. I have made it editable so the fields can be filled in.
