ESS VIP project on Validation Presented by: Pedro Díaz EUROSTAT
CONTENT • Scope & objectives • Business case • Link with previous projects & maturity • Proposed approach & milestones • Next steps
Scope & objectives • Documentation / Standardisation • Methodological analysis of Data Validation • Distribution of responsibilities in the production chain • Preparing for IS/IT solutions and architecture
Scope & objectives • Coherent validation policy in the different statistical domains, in cooperation with MS. • Standard validation language • Solutions for complex validation actions to ensure: • Coherence between data files • Coherence between Member States • Integrity of the ESS data
Scope & objectives Contribution to the VISION:
Business case: Need for change • Two steps circular validation process • Step 1: Validation in Member States • Step 2: Validation in Eurostat • Lack of harmonisation • In documentation (validation procedures & rules) • In coordination: "Validation ping pong" • In software solutions • Subjective assessment of data quality • Risk of low quality results
Link with previous projects & maturity • Favourable reaction of Member States in • ITDG: Oct 2011 • DIME: March 2012 • ESSC: May 2012 • Working Groups
Proposed approach & milestones Packages:
Next steps: 2013 - 2014 • Data sent to Eurostat already validated (push mode, in-file validation, micro-macro) • Enablers: • Descriptive syntax • Governance mechanism with Member States • Implementation monitoring • Adaptation of IT Tools • Micro data specificities
Next steps: 2014 - 2020 • Extended validation (across files, time series) • Need for shared databases • Need of shared tools • Mirror checks: One country checking after countries' data • Confidentiality treatment • Enhancement of transmission tools • Change roles (Member States, Eurostat) • Pull and shared modes • Common warehouses • Census hub technologies • Change roles (Member States, Eurostat)
Next steps Why an ESS VIP? Role of NSI's in project phases • Methodological Task Force • Validate phase-1 deliverables • Advise on implementation/monitoring • Definition of ESSNet work ESSNet
