THE BNSI EXPERIENCE IN METADATA COLLECTION AND
ORGANIZATION

• Joint UNECE/Eurostat/OECD Work Session on
  Statistical Metadata (METIS) 3-5
  April 2006, Geneva

Paper contents

• Essence and goal of ISIS and principles of
  development component by component
• Standards for the metadata description in
  information systems
• The place of the developing components in the
  ISIS architecture
• Organization of metadata collection realization
  through the statistical information systems
• Future tasks

3
Specific topics in the experience

• No possibility to develop components in the best
  way - Necessity the developing components to be
  integrated and every new component to be
  integrated to the existing
• Component by component development of the ISIS
• The Metadata components tools for metadata
  collection

ISIS brief presentation

• Connected obejct oriented and process oriented
  ISs
• Centralized DBs common, sharing DBs with
  controled access
• Core component Metadata base
• Metadata driven system
• Architecture Standard 51 Information Systems
  Architecture for National and International
  Statistical Offices
• Infrastructural components
• Functional components
• Databases Observation registers, Final
  observation registers, Macrodata base,
  Dissemination DB

Step by step development of ISIS

• Guiding principles
• the ideology and architecture of ISIS defined
  strict adherence working on developing separate
  ISIS components.
• common metadata model implementation in separate
  ISIS components.
• interfaces between information systems if
  possible, especially for the metadata exchange.
• developed and approved internal standards.
• Consolidation of the IT environment and IT
  elements to be achieved
• Common development tools to be used in the
  development of the system.
• Not to destroy the statistical production
  process

Developing systems why these IS

• IS Statistical classifications service
  provided for the other components development,
  maintenance, relations between, usage of the
  statistical classifications
• IS Register of the statistical units
  administrative and statistical units, statistical
  surveys population
• IS Planning and design of statistical survey
  application SW tool for MD collection life
  cycle survey description
• Electronic Metadata Vocabulary terms
  definitions and their maintenance
• IS Demography integration - DWH

Organization of the MD collection

• IS Planning and design of statistical survey,
  IS Statistical classifications, EMDV
  application SW tools for MD collection
  standard survey description
• Co-ordination council Vice-President,
  Directors, defined rules internal standards
  approval
• Working groups the best experts in the
  statistical office
• Programme for survey description implementation
  of the systems

Future work

• National PHARE 2004 Programme TS for
  development of ISIS detailed plan with more
  technical requirements for ISIS realization
• TS for development of the functional component
  Data collection and editing including Micro
  DB building up (Observation and Final observation
  registers)
• Data from administrative sources
• Data dissemination DB and functional component
