SEEINGTHE FOREST THROUGH THE TREES: A GRAPHICAL VIEW FOR EDITING THROUGH E-SPHERE WP 26 Work Session on Statistical Data Editing(Bonn, Germany, 25-27 September 2006)Topic (v): New and Emerging Methods Submitted by the U.S. Energy Information Administration
Overview • The problem with the editing process • The solution being developed graphically ►”The forest”: macro view ►”The trees”: micro view • Summary and description of work remaining
The Problem • Two years ago implemented StEPS► rule-based edits► no prioritization of edit failures ► limited edit failure presentation context ■ Survey forms changes, more detailed data ► no historical data for new product edits
The Solution ■ Graphical approach using SAS Insight► user interface thru menus ► interactively creates the data sets ► displays graphs
The Forest • Bottom down—interactive instruction booklet ►maps final data product to a reported item►provides catalog of available data►resides outside of StEPS
Summary • User interfaces to SAS Insight to view the data reported easily • Context to prioritize edit failures, as well as identify data not flagged by the edits. • Higher-level mappings from publication tables to individual surveys provide a higher-level context • Two access points to edit: top down or bottom up.
Work Remaining • Complete Development and train • Implement • Improve overall edit process
