Cross UK Census collaboration
All three user support units and statistical offices are working together with ESRC to make UK research possible
Some examples of this
Calls-Hub – one stop shop for an introduction to the three LSs www.calls.ac.uk
Edata shield -a technical resource for modelling with comparable data from all three LSs – www.calls.ac.uk/more/contact-us/
SYLLS - synthetic longitudinal data akin to real data preserving the relationships between variables and transitions of individuals over time – planned OGL release contact [email protected]
SYNTHPOP R tool for generating synthetic versions of sensitive microdata for statistical disclosure control
