Art/Literary - Surveying
Spanish term or phrase: Fuente: Elaboración propia
In this context, the "fuente" is the source, I'm clear on that. But how coul one say "elaboracion propia"?

I thought about "personal compilation" but it doesn't feel right... does anybody have any better recommendations?

Thanks! This seems to be the most logical one in this context, although Source: author(s) was also a good one.
