1. Census interaction data: from CIDS to CIDER Census interaction data: from CIDS to CIDER John Stillwell School of Geography, University of Leeds, CIDS Director and UPTAP Coordinator Third International Conference on Population Geographies organised by the RGS-IBG Population Geography Research Group at the University of Liverpool, 19-21 June 2006

2. CIDS Census Interaction Data Service ESRC/JISC funded Data Support Unit under the Census Programme 2001-2006-2011 Provides registered users throughout the UK with access to census origin-destination migration and commuting statistics Overall aim is to encourage more use to be made of these data sets Web-based Interface to Census Interaction Data (WICID) is the online access system

3. Presentation 1 Introduction Census interaction data Developments from 1991 CIDS data holdings 2 WICID: How does it work? Building queries Analysis tools 3 From CIDS to CIDER CIDS useage CIDER objectives 4 UPTAP Overview

4. 1 Introduction: Census interaction data 1 Introduction: Census interaction data SMS/SWS/STS involve migration and commuting flow data involving two geographies: origins and destinations Extremely rich data sets for use by researchers and practitioners Especially valuable because of lack of alternative data sources, especially below district scale Territorially comprehensive and reasonably reliable Tell us many things about mobility patterns, place connectivity and behavioural processes

5. Example: Patterns of net migration for London boroughs, 2000-01 Aggregate rates of net migration show losses from all but three boroughs (& City of London) Source: 2001 Census SMS level 1

6. The importance of disaggregating net migration for London boroughs, 2000-01 Net rates of migration for boroughs with the rest of GB Net rates of migration for boroughs within London Source: 2001 Census SMS level 1

7. Developments from 1991 Developments from 1991 Coverage of whole UK (for most interaction data) 100% data for all interaction data including SWS Data on journey to place of study in Scotland (STS) Student migration to, at and from university Richer data: more tables and detail within tables Additional sets of tables at ‘output area’ level Imputation of missing data on workplace and migrants’ origins (if not stated and not ‘no usual address 1 yr ago’ New concept of ‘moving groups’ in SMS Different approach to disclosure control

8. In comparison with 1991 Census, there are a similar number of tables but: (1) considerably more counts in 2001, (2) all the counts are 100% in 2001, (3) OA level Data sets Level 1 (District) Level 2 (Ward) Level 3 (OA) 2001 SMS 10 tables, 996 counts 5 tables, 96 counts 1 table, 12 counts 1991 SMS 11 tables, 94 counts 2 tables, 12 counts - 2001 SWS 7 tables, 936 counts 6 tables, 354 counts 1 table, 36 counts 1991 SWS* -Set C: 9 tables, 274 counts - 2001 STS 7 tables, 1,176 counts 6 tables, 478 counts 1 table, 50 counts * 10% sample

10. Adjustment for disclosure control in 2001 Various methods used by ONS in 2001 –minimum thresholds of people and households before the release of data –record swapping between areas –small cell adjustment method (SCAM) SCAM assumed to adjust values of 1 and 2 to values of 0 and 3 Significant impact on flows, especially at OA level

11. How many UK internal migrants? Seven different counts of total migration in 2001 SMS for 2000-01 period: Level from which total derived Table Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Table 1 (Total): 6,202,016 6,267,740 6,164,996 Table 2 (Family status): 6,204,876 na na Table 3 (Ethnicity): 6,206,216 6,190,926 na Table 4 (LTL illness): 6,205,128 na na Source: 2001 Census SMS tables

15. WICID general query interface See paper in Environment and Planning A (2003) for further details

16. Selection of origins or destinations Selection of origins or destinations When choosing origins or destinations, users are confronted with a set of alternative selection tools

17. Map selection window in WICID WICID uses Post GIS extended PostgresSQL database and MapServer library components

18. Example of a query: to select flows to City of London from districts in SE and other regions

19. Analytical Tools Some basic statistics Suite of indicators Some of which require additional data: e.g. distances populations at risk Assembly of PARs is currently underway for 2001 data sets: needs specially commissioned counts for some variables

22. 3 From CIDS to CIDER (Centre for Interaction Data Estimation and Research CIDS useage statistics

23. Objectives of CIDER To continue delivery of a high quality service To redesign WICID database structure and develop user interface To gather/estimate further UK census-based data sets (e.g. commissioned tables, SOA-SOA flows) To expand WICID to include UK non-census data sets (e.g. from NHSCR, patient registers, HESA) To provide training, to upgrade documentation and to disseminate To advise on 2011 Census and prepare for inclusion of interaction data sets in WICID

25. 4 UPTAP: Overview

26. Primary aims of UPTAP To build capacity in secondary data analysis To promote the use of large-scale social science data sets, both qualitative and quantitative To improve our understanding of demographic trends and processes which affect society and the population

27. To build capacity in secondary data analysis amongst new and mid-career researchers To spread knowledge and use of secondary analysis through and beyond the social science community To add value to the ESRC investments in the collection, preservation and promotion of large- scale national data sets by encouraging their use and exploitation in the longer term, to maximize the knowledge gained about economic and social change from secondary data analysis Principal objectives of UPTAP
