The Dataflow Inventory is a comprehensive system that catalogues data flows, including their origin, destination, format, and frequency of transmission. It helps facilitate data exchange and ensures smooth data management within organizations. This inventory is particularly relevant for organizations like Eurostat, INSEE, and other international institutions.

90 % / 99 => 99 = 1999 but in 90 % what means « % » a percentage of what ? 2) Dataflows Inventory = Administrative Metadata Inventory WHY I’M HERE ?
SITUATION DATAFLOW INVENTORY
Definition : homogeneous package of data sent regularly Practice : data sent by a person to another one => strong connection with structure Answer to a question DATAFLOW
DATAFLOWS EUROSTAT OECD IMF ECB WB @ 1/3 INSEE-HQ SSM SSM SSM
Dataflows : Q : who send what to whom ? A : Census (Ediflow inventory) Data transmission : Q : How to do it? Through which channels ? A : Insee central site (Stadium & Statel ) Data Format : Q : File definition ? Which standards ? A : Standardisation (Gesmes-TS) QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
DESCRIPTION DATAFLOW INVENTORY
European side of dataflows : - Legal basis of the request (which may be regulatory or an informal agreement) - statistical description of the data flow-statistical theme - working group associated. - - statistical products and data base Characteristics of the request : format, confidentiality, periodicity satisfaction of the requester (only in French inventory) QUESTION = REQUEST
means of transmission, physical medium and logical format. volume work : follow-up , specific work , work burden volume evolution producer ‘s satisfaction NATIONAL ANSWERS
Persons : name and telephone, fax, e-mail Organisations : name, postal address and telephone, fax, e-mail, web address and links PERSONS & ORGANISATIONS
Producers knows the content (in French) but : a) what is the Eurostat name ? b) what is the legal or informal basis for that work ? A flow is an answer to a request but : what is the exact request ? Producer logic receiver logic DATAFLOW Inventory : method
INSEE = 1 year's work in 1998 At this time, small, but good partnership with Eurostat. New directory from Eurostat now could permit efficient work But I have to check dataflows one by one DATAFLOW inventory : workload
Direct results : production of French & European Cd-ROM inventory in French and English with detailed administrative metadata published on the intranet good partnership with Eurostat DATAFLOW Inventory :results
Former inventory, being updated now : INSEE EUROSTAT In progress : INSEE Other international organisations Planned update next year : SSM, etc.. EUROSTAT SSM IMF, OECD, ECB,.. DATAFLOW Inventory : current situation
Edifloweuropean on line update +local database Jonction with monitoring for follow-up Harmonized metadata (SDMX) DATAFLOW Inventory :future
PROBLEMS DATAFLOW INVENTORY
Description about data flows : What is the optimum size ? 1999 : FR -> Eurostat 215 flows checked Now Eurostat >500 identified What is the number of time-series ? DATAFLOW Inventory : metadata questions
National differences : national answer expected Ediflow inventory production classification => no sources into Ediflow inventory Ediflow inventory = export classification DATAFLOW Inventory : metadata questions
CONCLUSION DATAFLOW INVENTORY
Inventory strongly linked with organisation but Need for stability Need for theoretical basis but also for realistic approach Very useful CONCLUSION
