Population Statistics: Forward Research Plan Alison Whitworth April 2013
Work strands – Population estimates • Migration • International emigration (LA) • Internal migration • E- borders • Quality assurance for population estimates • Conceptual framework
International emigration • Review of model • Variable selection • Administrative sources • Geographical effects • Cannot use improved methods as adopted for immigration
Internal migration • Lessons learnt from reconciliation with Census data • Work to assess the improved student adjustment
E-borders Potential uses for migration estimates • Improved understanding of migration patterns: • Analysis of travel histories • Improving IPS estimates through: • Enhanced weighting of IPS • Efficiency of IPS sampling • Targeted sampling
Quality assurance • Previous quality work: • Plausibility ranges • Measures of uncertainty • Successful 2011 Census QA • Systematic mechanism for making adjustments to implausible estimates
