2. Socio-Demographic and Economic Survey
To address the vacuum of vital data, CSO started the Socio-Demographic and Economic Survey (SDES) in 2011, with the intent of conducting it province by province, as the Expert Group had recommended, with an emphasis on collecting the socio-demographic and economic data at the district level.
SDES provides data on the population characteristics, literacy, educational attainment, migration, employment, functional difficulty, fertility, mortality, birth registration and living status of parents, disaggregated by sex and district. Information on the household and housing characteristics is also included

Mapping
Mapping of the enumeration area is one of the first and most critical phases of the census and survey. Maps are important to guide the enumerators on the coverage of their assigned area so that they know the correct boundary of their assignment, and thus avoid duplication or missing out some households.
