DEVELOPMENT OF GEOSPATIAL STATISTICAL
FRAMEWORK AT NSO MONGOLIA
• GIS was first introduced at the NSO Mongolia for the 2010 Population and
Housing Census: used throughout all stages
• Before 2010, geographic information in statistical undertaking mainly
served as planning and monitoring tools in forms of roughly drawn basic
cartography.
• The development of GIS at the NSO Mongolia brought the inter-agency
government collaboration to a new level.
– Changes in legal basis were carried out in regards to enabling the use of certain
scale topographic and cadastral maps, which were otherwise considered as
classified and not shared.
MANUALLY DRAWN PROVINCE MAP IN 2000 VS. GIS
GENERATED CENSUS CARTOGRAPHY IN 2010
GEOSPATIAL DATABASE AT THE NSO
• Use of GIS in censuses
– Location of enumeration unit (e.g. household) was captured and
digitized without the use of GPS devices
– Development of web-based GIS
– Dissemination of census results on an interactive web maps
– National Atlas

INTEGRATED STATISTICAL DATABASE
• In 2015, Population and Housing by-Census was conducted for the first
time since the enactment of the Law on Population and Housing Census
in 2008.
• It was the first ever register-based census approach for Mongolia.
• Based on existing local database of population and household register
booklet recorded and kept at the primary level administrative units, real-
time and online Population and Household Register Database was
created.

STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES
• Integration of over 1700 sets of existing population and household
register local database was checked against more than 30 administrative
records databases. It revealed serious underlying problems and identified
areas of improvements
• One of the major problems was inconsistency of coding standards and
classifications for commonly used main attributes, such as geospatial
information standards and guidelines
– Discrepancies between the administrative unit names and codes among the Civil
Registration Database (administered by Civil Registration Authority) and the
Population and Household Register Database (supervised by NSO and administered
by local Governor’s Office)
– This specific type of discrepancies require minor to major changes to be made in
more than 150 primary level administrative units for their names and codes in either
of the two databases.
STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES, cont’d
• NSO Mongolia is taking the lead role for aligning the standards and
classifications used in databases and actively promoting the development
of integrated government database. For this purpose, NSO Mongolia is
undertaking the following activities:
– Carry out complete evaluation of government agency databases and identify
methods of incorporation;
– Make amendments in the Law on Statistics /to enable the NSO to access all
databases established at government and private sectors for only statistical purposes
upon safeguarding the privacy and confidentiality/;
– Improve the development of satellite databases such as health, education, social
insurance, disability and others one by one and foster the linkage to the Population
and Household Register Database;
– Develop or improve current non-coherent coding standards, including addresses,
education and so on that can facilitate linking databases;
USE OF SATELLITE IMAGERY FOR STATISTICAL PRODUCTS
AND DECISION MAKING
• Geospatial statistical database established at the NSO Mongolia
comprises of individual census databases and the Population and
Household Register Database.
• Administered online by local officers at primary level administrative units,
the Population and Household Register Database displays high resolution
satellite imagery as its base map.
• Local officers can digitize household locations on it while keeping the
demographic and socio-economic records of the household members.
BENEFITS OF USING SATELLITE IMAGERY IN THIS DATABASE
• Latest physical location of herders who are highly mobile unit of
enumeration can be determined prior and during census and survey
enumeration.
• Accurate: Contrary to using handheld GPS devices
• Cost-efficient: no field exercise for collecting waypoints
• Huge potential to be used as the basis for planning, producing official
statistics and conducting researches
– When linked with administrative records, such as education, health, border patrol,
emergency and so on
• The biggest challenge when linking different databases remains in the
alignment of key indicators, coding standards and classifications.

URBAN AND RURAL HOUSEHOLD LOCATION DIGITIZED
USING SATELITE IMAGERY
• Each household is assigned with a unique ID number that stays with
the household when moved to a different place.
• With this feature, lifetime migration can be captured and analyzed
which was otherwise possible based on decennial census results only.
INTEGRATION OF CENSUS DATABASES
• Incorporation of household ID number into the Livestock Census and
Agricultural Census enabled further use of the geospatial statistical
database to produce non-traditional statistical products.

National Geospatial Infrastructure
The project is still under its
development and substantial
amounts of achievements have been
done with supports from international
organizations and partner agencies.
However, establishment of its legal
basis and related documents and
standards are still yet to come.

• Since the 2010 Population and Housing Census, total of 65 primary administrative units
were newly created, including 45 new Bags in provinces and 20 new Khoroos in the
Capital city.
• Reasons to establish statistical units:
– New administrative units can be created, taken down or merged together by the Order of the
Governor of superior level at any time.
– It creates inconsistencies in statistical dynamics.
– Delineations of the sub-district level administrative unit boundaries are not officially
established and causes confusions between different databases.
• For the 2010 Population and Housing Census, the country territory was divided into over
12000 enumeration areas.
• Enumeration area boundaries were not digitized during the 2010 census; however, the
method of digitizing the household waypoints can indicate rough delineation
ESTABLISHMENT OF STATISTICAL UNITS
ESTABLISHMENT OF STATISTICAL UNITS
• Benefits of establishing statistical units include:
– Consistency of socio-economic statistical dynamics in geographical areas
– Better sampling frame
– Accurate estimation of small area statistics and others
• For the 2010 Population and Housing Census, the country territory was divided into over
12000 enumeration areas.
• Enumeration area boundaries were not digitized during the 2010 census; however, the
method of digitizing the household waypoints can indicate rough delineation, if the 2010
census enumeration area should serve as the base.

ESTABLISHMENT OF GEOCODED ADDRESS
DATABASE
• Address system and database in Mongolia is very rough.
• Addresses of streets, land plots, buildings, real estates are issued and
administered by different government agencies
– no standardized system or format
– no integrated address database
• Since the enactment of the Law on Addresses in 2013, new standards
and guidelines have been developed
• Adaptation of new standards for assigning street names and numbers
• Establishing a database based on the new adaptation.
• Although the new standard applies commonly used international
practices similar to that in the USA, the implementation requires changes
to be made on existing street names and numbers that were originally
issued in disorganized and unsystematic customs.
ESTABLISHMENT OF GEOCODED ADDRESS
DATABASE
• The implementation process requires certain procedures that include:
– Re-assignment of street names and numbers in accordance with the new standards;
– Legal acts and orders overruling previous resolutions on street names issued by
Governor’s Orders;
– Modification in display signs of street names and numbers
– Re-issuance of personal and organizational ID cards and related documents of
those affected by the modification of addresses;
• Since the scope of the operation is so large and strenuous, the
implementing partners are cautious towards public objection.
• Current approach maintained by the Administration of Land Affairs,
Geodesy and Cartography Office is to act the modification by the normal
flow of administrative procedures.
CONCLUSION
• NSO Mongolia is trying hard and quite successful.
• Point data in censuses created possibilities
– improved its geospatial statistical framework
– enabled visualization
– dissemination of more effective statistical products for informed decision making.
• Satellite imagery for geo-referencing point data has been a cost-efficient
mission while the database is highly regarded by local administrative
officers as the key tool for statistical and administrative purposes.
• National interest on geospatial development has been rising
• NSO Mongolia is one of the leading agency for the improvement of
geospatial statistical framework.
CHALLENGES WE HAVE
• Legal environment to obtain all databases
• Inadequate address system
– Development of geocoded address database
• Inconsistency in standards and guidelines
• Skilled human resource
