Collaboration in Research and Methodology for Official Statistics
[no-lexicon]The ESSnet ValiDat Integration examines different ways to implement a common infrastructure for data validation in the ESS. Our work includes theoretical groundwork, data structures and languages and their integration into the data validation subprocess of statistical production. We also look at the architecture and interoperability of distributed data validation in the ESS.
Validation is a key process in statistical production and has a major impact on data quality and productivity.
The ESSnet project Validat Foundation has worked on harmonisation and standardisation in this field.

Administrative data are used more and more in official statistics as a replacement for survey data.
[no-lexicon]When data sets are linked at individual level, for instance survey data with administrative data, often no unique linkage keys are available. In that case, probabilistic linkage may be used. With probabilistic linkage, linkage errors will occur. These errors may have impact on subsequent statistical analysis.
