SDGs Dissemination The iceberg syndrome: 10% of what is going on! The role of statistical standards in Building National Data Backbones

SDGs Dissemination Much more than SDGs reporting, if we don't look below the surface and reflect on how a national level statistical network works, then we cannot build National Data Backbones and will miss the boat! The role of statistical standards in Building National Data Backbones

SDGs NSO Dissemination NSO can orchestrate the information flows within the national network, acting as the experts to guide and enforce standards and building a shared knowledge. The role of statistical standards in Building National Data Backbones

Our conviction and guiding principles Component-based following international standards CSPA, SDMX, GSIM, GSBPM. Community driven by the SIS-CC a strong well-established community continually investing in product development 4 Open-source enabling to be used by a wider set of users for free. Full data lifecycle support from collection, processing, through to dissemination The role of statistical standards in Building National Data Backbones

Statistical standards Component-based following international standards CSPA, SDMX, GSIM, GSBPM. Community driven by the SIS-CC a strong well-established community continually investing in product development GSBPM provides the conceptual framework for Full Data Lifecycle. In the context of a NDB, GSBPM defines the 'data aggregator' use case. Open-source enabling to be used by a wider set of users for free.

SDMX Native {“SDMX IM”} {“SDMX-#format(s)”} {“SDMXSource”} SDMX facilitates for a standardised full data lifecycle, and guides data modelling to ensure a coherent output suitable for consumption by data portals and visualisations. {“SDMX-#format(s)”} {“SDMXSource”} {“SDMX Web Services”} The role of statistical standards in Building National Data Backbones

Standards are not enough Not everyone is an SDMX expert? The role of statistical standards in Building National Data Backbones

Standards driven can sometimes contradict user-centric design! The role of statistical standards in Building National Data Backbones

Gaps in Standards SDMX was developed as an data exchange protocol, and is being used for much more exposing it's constraints. Sparse dataset! Performance issues! The role of statistical standards in Building National Data Backbones

Standards need to evolve! The role of statistical standards in Building National Data Backbones

{ JSON } SDMX Evolution </> xml SDMX has and continues to evolve into a software architecture protocol with an increased format offering. The role of statistical standards in Building National Data Backbones

New Standards? A need for a standard to exchange at technical level. For example, Reusable Components for the Web. The role of statistical standards in Building National Data Backbones

Integrate Market Standards The role of statistical standards in Building National Data Backbones

Standards is fundamental to develop the conceptual framework to build a shared knowledge by bringing together a community of practitioners and statistical experts.

What we are trying to create is a Community of practice with shared knowledge. Component-based following international standards CSPA, SDMX, GSIM, GSBPM.

SDGs NSO Dissemination Ministries will continue to report to their related IO or exchange with other national entities - it's not a hub and bespoke, rather it's open, transparent and structured - orchestrated by the NSO. The role of statistical standards in Building National Data Backbones
