Integration means matching

statistical information from Official Statistics (FSO)

+

geospatial information from National Mapping Agency (BKG)

=georeferenced statistical information

1. Basics

(1) Each agency – FSO and BKG – has ist own tasks, duties

and obligations.

(2) Legal acts, gentlemen‘s agreements, guidelines and

recommendations are fundamental for functioning in a

transparent and open manner.

(3) For integration only the interdependencies and

cooperation, when combining statistical information from

FSO and geospatial data from BKG, matter.

Tasks provision of statistical data in

every form (tables, graphs, maps)

for its customers and the users

from the political, economic, and

scientific areas for free and

according to ‘open’ standards

Products about 400 statistics of which 2/3 are

EU-wide harmonized with 5,5 million

monthly visits and 760.000

downloads

Functioning federally with the 16 Länder

according to the constitution (Art. 83

GG); Länder offices are conducting

statistics, i.e. data collection, data

aggregation as their own business up

to Laender level

Tasks, products and cooperation in OS

a general agreement for instance a Memorandum of Unterstanding

between OS and NMA seems to be a good basis

a detailed work plan, regularly monitored and infraannual meeting needed

for operational cooperation in times of decreasing resources and

increasing workload and complexity of tasks

new forms of cooperation with other data providers concerning statistical

data sources and geospatial information must be taken into account

good cooperation between federal statistic producers and mapping

agencies

harmonizing procedures and results

ensuring high quality, in particular relevance and reliability of statistical and

geographical data in a comparative manner
