A Quality Framework for Statistics based on Administrative Data Sources using the Example of the Austrian Census 2011
Abstract
Along with the implementation of a register-based census we develop a methodological framework to assess administrative data sources for statistical use. Key aspects for the quality of these data are identified in the context of hyperdimensions and embedded into a process flow. Based on this approach we develop a structural quality framework and suggest a concept for quality assessment and several quality measures.
