Strategic vision of the HLG-BASHigh-Level Group on Strategic Developments in Business Architecture in Statistics Steven Vale UNECE steven.vale@unece.org
Background • HLG-BAS created by the Bureau of the Conference of European Statisticians in 2010 • Mission: • To oversee and guide discussions on developments in the business architecture of the statistical production process, including methodological and information technology aspects
HLG-BAS Members • Netherlands - Gosse van der Veen (Chairman) • Australia - Brian Pink • Italy - Enrico Giovannini • Slovenia - Irena Krizman • United States - Katherine Wallman • Eurostat - Walter Radermacher • OECD – Martine Durand • UNECE - Lidia Bratanova • Observers METIS – Alice Born (Canada) MSIS – Rune Gløersen (Norway) SAB – Marton Vucsan (Netherlands)
HLG-BAS Strategic Vision • Endorsed by the Conference of European Statisticians on 14 June • Perspective • Challenges • Vision
The internet has 1800 exabytes of data in 2011 exa = 10^18 Some perspective:
We live in exponential times 50,000 exabytes by 2020 27 fold growth in the next 9 years
Are these data interesting? • Probably 99.9% are videos, photos, audio files, text messages and other nonsense • But that still leaves 1,800,000,000,000,000,000 bytes of potentially relevant data
High Level Group Vision: We have to re-invent our products and processes and adapt to a changed world
The Challenges are too big for statistical organisations to tackle on their own.We need to work together
Other international initiatives • “Industry” standards • Generic Statistical Business Process Model • Generic Statistical Information Model • Statistical Data and Metadata eXchange • Data Documentation Initiative
Other international initiatives • New collaborative networks • “Statistical Network” • Sharing Advisory Board • ESSNet projects • SDMX / DDI Dialogue

Standards save money New methods and architectures for large volumes of data Minimise labour, innovate Collaborate to spread the burden Industrialising processes
Next steps • Autumn 2011: workshop for representatives of the expert groups in the inventory to develop a strategy to implement the vision • June 2012: Strategy presented to Conference of European Statisticians
