Slide 22 2001 Census Programme Casweb System Aggregate statistics from 1971- 81-91-2001 UK censuses Digital Boundary Data (2001 soon) Slide 23 2001 Census Programme Digital boundary data from UKBORDERS University of Edinburgh Data Library Slide 24 2001 Census Programme Includes the results of censuses, the surveys and records gathered about individuals by health authorities, central/local government and the service sector. Normally we are dealing with aggregated data describing a group of observations grouped by a particular Geography. Socioeconomic Data Slide 25 2001 Census Programme Which Geography? Geographical space can be subdivided in many different ways and for many different purposes for the reporting of socioeconomic data (census or otherwise). Reporting geographies form intangible boundaries which differ from natural geographic features. Differences between epochs of geographies between the 1971, 1981, 1991 and 2001 census years for example. Slide 26 2001 Census Programme A Hierarchy of census output geographies. Slide 27 2001 Census Programme UKBORDERS United Kingdom Boundary Outline and Reference Database for Education and Research Study. Based at EDINA, University of Edinburgh. Boundary data delivered through UKBORDERS since 1996. Provides services for supporting geographic data for learning, teaching and research. Slide 28 2001 Census Programme Why use UKBORDERS? Web based delivery of digitised boundary datasets and associated look-up-tables of the UK. Main group of datasets correspond to the various levels of the 1981, 1991 and 2001 census geography. Important associated datasets include current and historical postcode directories from ONS. Slide 29 2001 Census Programme A key benefit is convenient access to ready-made datasets. Full on-line help is provided. Off-line support is provided through the EDINA Geo Data Services support team. Dedicated facilities provide access to these datasets, either pre-packaged or through a dynamic user driven interface. Slide 30 2001 Census Programme Slide 31 Who uses UKBORDERS? Researchers interested in the spatial visualisation and analysis of census statistics and other socioeconomic datasets linked to census output geographies. Population Deprivation Employment Education Health Housing Crime Slide 32 2001 Census Programme Researcher is interested in patterns of deprivation and access to public health services in Oxford. Has claimant data from DWP and deprivation data from ODPM reported using the lower layer Super Output Area geography. Map data using boundaries Slide 33 2001 Census Programme Wants to visualise the data geographically and look for interesting patterns. Through UKBORDERS, the researcher can download Lower layer SOA boundary data for Oxford. Slide 34 2001 Census Programme Background DWP Claimant Data. Provides a count of Jobseekers allowance claimants broken down by 3 age bands. ODPM deprivation data. Index of Multiple Deprivation made up from 7 weighted indices including income; employment; health & disability; education, skills & training; barriers to housing & services; crime and, living environment. Slide 35 2001 Census Programme Both datasets are reported using the Lower Super Output Area (LSOA) geography. Designed by ONS to improve the reporting of small area statistics. Built from groups of Output Areas, LSOA`s have a minimum population of 1000, a mean population of 1500 and are constrained by the boundaries of census Standard Table wards. Slide 36 2001 Census Programme Obtain LSOA boundaries Slide 37 2001 Census Programme Login to UKBORDERS requires Registration with Census Registration Service and an Athens username. Slide 38 2001 Census Programme Use UKBORDERS Boundary Data Selector to extract LSOA boundary data for Oxford only. Slide 39 2001 Census Programme Preview Data. Select Output Format. Slide 40 2001 Census Programme Download boundary data and load into GIS Slide 41 2001 Census Programme Link data to the boundaries Slide 42 2001 Census Programme DWP data mapped using LSOAs Slide 43 2001 Census Programme ODPM data mapped using LSOAs Slide 44 2001 Census Programme Having explored the patterns in the datasets, the researcher chooses to focus on the patterns of deprivation within Oxford and explore possible associations between deprivation and access to Health care. Researcher obtains from Oxford Primary Care Trust a list of NHS dentists in the city, each of which has a postcode as part of its address. Use postcode directories Slide 45 2001 Census Programme Through UKBORDERS, the researcher can download postcode directories supplied by ONS Directories provide a grid reference for each postcode and allocates each postcode to a range of geographies Holds Live and terminated postcodes Current version known as the National Statistics Postcode Directory (NSPD) and is released quarterly Slide 46 2001 Census Programme Obtain latest version of ONS NSPD from UKBORDERS. Slide 47 2001 Census Programme Use NSPD to assign LSOA codes and grid reference to each dental practice using its postcode. Associate ODPM Index of Multiple Deprivation Scores using the LSOA code. Slide 48 2001 Census Programme Are there any patterns? Slide 49 2001 Census Programme Developments during 2006-11 Maintain the viability and operation of existing UKBORDERS facilities Add new datasets Improved access to postcode directories Enhanced metadata and support materials Support the proposed Census Portal Slide 50 2001 Census Programme Interaction data from the Census Interaction Data Unit (CIDS) Universities of Leeds and St Andrews Slide 51 2001 Census Programme What are Census interaction data? Interaction data include: - Special Migration Statistics (SMS) - Special Workplace Statistics (SWS) - Special Travel Statistics (STS) 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 Slide 52 2001 Census Programme Research questions? MIGRATION What are the key patterns of migration in the UK at different spatial scales: north-south, inter-regional, counterurbanisation, within cities, within small localities...? How do migration propensities and patterns vary by age, sex, ethnicity, occupation,.? Does the urban exodus from larger cities involve the loss of those with more skills and higher social status? (see Champion et al., 2006, report for JRF) Is there any evidence of linkage between patterns of immigration and internal migration and by ethnic group in the UK? (see Stillwell, 2005, paper at BSPS) Slide 53 2001 Census Programme Research questions? COMMUTING What differences exist in the patterns of commuting to workplace areas by age, sex, mode of travel ? How extensive has working from home become? How can the SWS be used to define functional urban areas or daily urban systems, i.e. travel-to-work areas? (see work of Coombes et al. at CURDS on definition of functional regions/TTWAs) What are the environmental implications of work travel? (see Frost et al., 1997 on estimation of energy consumption involved in commuting) Slide 54 2001 Census Programme Simple scenario Assume researcher who wants to: find out how many people migrated to Oxford in 2000-01 and which districts of the UK they came from know the 5 year age breakdown of migration flows from rest of England to Oxford in 2000-01 by sex Both these queries require migration data from 2001 Census SMS Slide 55 2001 Census Programme Overview: CIDS data holdings TypeMigrationCommuting 2001 RawSMS (Levels 1, 2, 3)SWS, STS (Levels 1, 2, 3) 1991 RawSMS (Sets 1 and 2), Table 100SWS (Sets A, B, C) DerivedMIGPOP, SMSGAPS DerivedSMS Set 1 for 2001 areasSWS Set C for 2001 areas 1981 RawSMS Set 2 (County and region)SWS Set C (County and region) DerivedSMS Set 2 for 2001 areasSWS Set C for 2001 areas DerivedSMS Set 2 for 1991 areasSWS Set C for 1991 areas Slide 56 2001 Census Programme Levels are the geographical units used in 2001 SMS/SWS/STS CountryLevel 1Level 2Level 3 EnglandLondon Boroughs (33), Metropolitan Districts (36), Unitary Authorities (46), Other Local Authorities (239) CAS wards (7,969)Output areas (165,665) WalesUnitary Authorities (22)CAS wards ( 881)Output areas (9,769) ScotlandCouncil Areas (32)ST wards ( 1,176)Output areas (42,604) Northern Ireland Parliamentary Constituencies (18) CAS wards (582 )Output areas (5,022) TotalDistricts (426)Interaction wards (10,608) Output areas (223,060) Slide 57 2001 Census Programme Access to these data Registered users throughout the UK access the origin-destination statistics via an online access system called: Web-based Interface to Census Interaction Data (WICID) developed by Oliver Duke-Williams (University of Leeds) Slide 58 2001 Census Programme WICID: How does it work? Interactive interface that allows users to construct queries that extract the required data from the database Users need to specify which origins and destinations and which census variables they require One of the most powerful features of the system is that users can choose different sets of origins and destinations at different spatial scales Slide 59 2001 Census Programme / CIDS homepage: http://cids.census.ac.uk / Slide 60 2001 Census Programme WICID home page Slide 61 2001 Census Programme WICID general query interface See paper in Environment and Planning A (2003) for further details Slide 62 2001 Census Programme Selection of origins or destinations Users confronted with a set of alternative tools Slide 63 2001 Census Programme Map selection window WICID uses Post GIS extended PostgresSQL database and MapServer library components Slide 64 2001 Census Programme Example query 1 Use Quick selection to select all 426 districts at level 1 as origins Use List selection select Oxford district as destination Use SMS 2001 Census at level 1 and select Total Migrants 1.User wants to find out how many people migrated to Oxford in 2000-01 and where they came from Can then map the data WICID query Slide 65 2001 Census Programme Inflows to Oxford from districts in the rest of the UK Slide 66 2001 Census Programme Example query 2 2. User wants to find out what is the 5 year age breakdown of migration flows from rest of England to Oxford in 2000-01 by sex Can then graph the data Select two origins: England and Oxford Select one destination: Oxford Select variables from Table 1 2001 SMS level 1: Migrants by age and sex Derive new variables for 0-4, 10-14 and 15-19 age groups Slide 67 2001 Census Programme Migrants to Oxford from rest of England and those within Oxford by age, 2000-01 Slide 68 2001 Census Programme Extensions: analysis 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 Slide 69 2001 Census Programme Migration effectiveness by ethnic group for regions, 2000-01 Slide 70 2001 Census Programme Need to understand the data Particularly when making comparisons between 1991 and 2001 because of: Changing definition of variables e.g. new categorizations of variables; inclusion of students Different measurement and adjustment of counts e.g. infants; underenumeration; migrants with unstated origins; migrants with no fixed address; SCAM adjustment of counts for confidentiality Inconsistency in geographical areas e.g. no migration data for Northern Ireland in 1990-91; local government re-organisation during the 1990s Slide 71 2001 Census Programme CIDS becomes CIDER Centre for Interaction Data Estimation and Research from 1 August 2006 Funded by ESRC for next 5 years (to 2011) Aims to continue delivery of a high quality service Need to redesign WICID database structure and develop user interface Slide 72 2001 Census Programme Other CIDER objectives 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 Slide 73 2001 Census Programme CIDS is funded by the ESRC/JISC under Census Programme Research Grant H507255177 CIDER is funded by the ESRC under Census Programme Research Grant RES-348-25-0005 Acknowledgement Slide 74 2001 Census Programme Samples of anonymised records from the Centre for Census and Survey Research (CCSR) University of Manchester Slide 75 2001 Census Programme Samples of Anonymised Records from the 2001 Census Cathie Marsh Centre for Census and Survey Research Five different microdata files with varying amounts of detail Three different modes of access With level of security related to the level of detail in the data Slide 76 2001 Census Programme Individual SAR 3% sample of individuals from UK 1.84 million records All census variables present Lowest geography GOR Access End User Licence (via Athens for academics Do not attempt to identify anyone Do not pass on data to unregistered individual Slide 77 2001 Census Programme Controlled Access Individual SAR 3% sample of individuals from UK 1.84 million records All census variables present with very great detail Lowest geography LA Access Only within 4 ONS offices Rigorous application procedure by ONS Careful vetting of outputs by ONS Slide 78 2001 Census Programme Household SAR 1% sample of households, E & W only 225K Households;

Record linkage study of 1% sample of population of England & Wales Started with 1971 Census, updated with immigrants and new births Follows individuals over time; at each census point also includes information on members of their households Contains data from the censuses and vital registration systems Exit from LS by death or emigration (also some lost to follow-up) Dataset contains over 30 years of follow-up (1971-2004) Slide 89 Study Structure 1971 Original sample: 530,000; selected from 1971 Census 1981 536,000 sample members found at 1981 Census 1991 543,000 sample members found at 1991 Census 2001 545,894 sample members found at 2001 Census Plus members of household EntrantsNew Births 214,000Immigrants 107,000Deaths 189,000Embarkations 30,000 Births to sample women 201,000 Events 1971 - 2001Widow(er)hoods 66,000 Cancer registrations 70,000 Slide 90 2001 Census Programme CeLSIUS We provide: Online resources Advice and training Help with specifying data extracts Data extracts (secure) for users to analyse at their own site data is ready to analyse/and or tabulate Help with analyses within the ONS safe setting Slide 91 2001 Census Programme How to access LS data and how CeLSIUS can help Researcher has idea Looks at CeLSIUS web site for detailed information on the data, training modules etc http://www.celsius.lshtm.ac.uk/ Contacts CeLSIUS who help with queries and application Project approved, CeLSIUS access data in safe setting & provide outputs for researcher Clearance procedure for publications Slide 92 2001 Census Programme Longitudinal Studies Research Question (Example 1) Project: How much association is there between the Social Class of mid life adults and the Social Class of their parents? Slide 93 2001 Census Programme Longitudinal Studies What LS data would allow you to answer the research question? Social Class of LS members aged 36-45 in 2001 these sample members were aged 6- 15 in 1971 and so nearly all were then living with a parent We can find the parent(s) Social Class in 1971 from the information of people then in the same household as the LS member Slide 94 2001 Census Programme Longitudinal Studies Issues to consider in analysis: What variables to use Social Class in 1971 needs Social Class in 2001 this measure (Registrar Generals Social Class) has now been replaced by NS-SEC but data in the LS have been coded to both (some approximation). How to treat missing (imputed) values Study sample: for this need people in the LS in 1971 and 2001 so exclude people who entered the sample after 1971 or those who left it before 2001. Whose Social Class Here in a two parent household, we use the social class of the parent with the occupation with the highest social class grading Sub-group analysis (e.g. minority ethnic groups) are sample sizes large enough? Slide 95 Social Class of LS members aged 36-45 in 2001 by Social Class of parent in 1971 (All) Slide 96 2001 Census Programme Social Class of Male LS members aged 36-45 in 2001, who lived with 2 parents in 1971, by parents Social Class Slide 97 Social class of LS females aged 36-45 in 2001, who lived with 2 parents in 1971, by parents social class Slide 98 2001 Census Programme Inter-generational transmission of social class Among those who lived with two parents in 1971: 59 per cent of men and 42 per cent of women with a parent in a professional/managerial job, were themselves professionals or managers. for those with parent(s) in partly skilled or unskilled jobs in 1971, the corresponding figures were 27 and 22 per cent Slide 99 2001 Census Programme Longitudinal Studies Research Question (Example 2) How have city populations been affected by in and out migration ? In this example we look at Inner London and at Liverpool. Slide 100 2001 Census Programme Longitudinal Studies Issues to consider in analysis: At what level to carry out analysis (region, county, county district) Consistency of geography Standard region v Government Office Region Scotland (ONS LS doesnt capture migrants to and from Scotland) Loss to follow-up Slide 101 2001 Census Programme Longitudinal Studies What data do you need to answer the research question? Nationally representative sample Usual address at 1991 (using administrative boundaries) Usual address at 2001 (using administrative boundaries) Consistency of geography between the two time points Slide 102 Slide 103 2001 Census Programme Inter-regional migration 1991-2001 Slide 104 2001 Census Programme Intercensal migration and the population of Liverpool Slide 105 2001 Census Programme Longitudinal Studies www.celsius.lshtm.ac.uk A Free service for UK academic users General enquiries: [email protected] 020 7299 4634 Emily GrundyAndy Sloggett Julian Buxton Christopher Marshall Rachel StuchburyJo Tomlinson Slide 106 2001 Census Programme How to find out more http ://census.ac.uk
