GPV

GPV is an acronym that can denote several unrelated concepts depending on context. In biology and veterinary science, GPV most commonly refers to goose parvovirus, a small DNA virus that infects geese and can cause illness and mortality in young birds. The virus belongs to the Parvoviridae family and is spread through contact with infected birds or contaminated materials; vaccines and biosecurity measures are used to control outbreaks.

In economics and payments, GPV may stand for gross processing value or gross processing volume, describing the total value of payment transactions processed by a payment gateway or processor over a given period. The term is used by some financial technology providers and merchants to measure scale and activity, though exact definitions and reporting formats vary by provider.

In national accounts and economic statistics, a related concept is gross production value (GPV), the total market value of goods and services produced in an economy, before subtracting intermediate consumption. Depending on the statistical system, GPV can be used alongside other aggregates like gross output or value added.

GPV can also denote other specialized terms in different fields, and its meaning should be inferred from context.
