With a 97% enumeration rate, the 2021 Northern Ireland Census was highly successful. The 2021 Census is built on a new and more efficient output geography of Data Zones (DZ) and Super Data Zones (SDZs). The new Zones/areas better represent the 2021 population than the previous output geographies. Yet this improvement in representation highlights an important weakness: the new geography is not backward-compatible with (a) previous censuses and (b) administrative data presented for older geographies (eg 2014 electoral wards). We address this weakness and add value to the 2021 Census for all users by linking it to other output geographies for temporal analysis. Our objectives are to create:Create 2021 Census outputs for older administrative or statistical geographies such as electoral wards, and Super Output Areas used for dissemination of outputs from the 2011 Census.Extend the temporal range of census small-area statistics back to 2001, 1991, 1981 and 1971 for selected geographies.Provide a spatial framework that will link 2021 Census output geographies to alternative output geographies, which will assist comparisons with administrative data sources and indices of multiple deprivation.The objectives are to create:A research-ready consistent dataset relating to censuses from 1971 to 2021.An outward-facing web resource that will allow non-expert users to assess how small user-defined areas have changed through time.Clear documentation of how the data have been created, processed and coded, where necessary, to make cross-census comparisons, recording changes in numbers, definitions and scope of questions between censuses.There is a documented demand for these products from both (a) the research community and from (b) wider communities of non-expert users. These aims and data outputs meet the call's rubric by creating "tools and research-ready datasets that enable research with census data" and dealing with "census data linked to other sources of data (including government administrative data)" and "census data that has been linked longitudinally." with software tools to make better use of 2021 Census data.Our project will achieve its aims and objectives by taking advantage of:Previous NISRA and ESRC investments in the unique 100m and 1km NI Grid-Square Product (GSP) (1971-2021). These data will be fully documented and prepared for (i) use in single census years; and (ii) for temporal comparisons over two or more censuses. Look-up tables will be created to relate the 100m grid to selected statistical geographies via best-fit approximation. Additionally, the creation of user-defined neighbourhoods will be explored. The NISRA data portal. Selected domains from these extensive data (eg school attendance, benefit counts) represented at electoral ward level will be related to 2021 Census (and other years) data via the look-up tables.Co-design, community outreach, and experience in web resource creation in QUB (https://www.qub.ac.uk/sites/qcap/about-us/QCAPApproach/). This will be used to understand what thematic areas are of value and also how to make the web resource easy to use.This project will run between March 2024 and March 2026. Minimal continued support will be necessary to maintain and update the web resource.

2021 年北爱尔兰人口普查取得了巨大成功，普查率为 97%。 2021 年人口普查建立在数据区 (DZ) 和超级数据区 (SDZ) 的全新且更高效的输出地理基础上。新的区域/地区比之前的输出地区更好地代表了 2021 年的人口。然而，这种代表性的改善凸显了一个重要的弱点：新的地理区域与 (a) 之前的人口普查和 (b) 为旧地理区域（例如 2014 年选区）提供的行政数据不向后兼容。我们解决了这一弱点，并通过将 2021 年人口普查链接到其他输出地理位置进行时间分析，为所有用户增加价值。我们的目标是：为较旧的行政或统计地理区域（例如选区）创建 2021 年人口普查输出，以及用于传播 2011 年人口普查输出的超级输出区域。将人口普查小区域统计数据的时间范围延长至 2001 年、1991 年、1981 年和 1971 年（针对选定的地区）。提供一个连接 2021 年的空间框架人口普查输出地理区域与替代输出地理区域，这将有助于与行政数据源和多重剥夺指数进行比较。目标是创建：与 1971 年至 2021 年人口普查相关的研究就绪一致数据集。一个面向外的网络资源，将允许非专家用户评估用户定义的小区域随时间的变化情况。在必要时清晰记录数据的创建、处理和编码方式，以进行交叉普查比较，记录人口普查之间数字、定义和问题范围的变化。(a) 研究界和 (b) 更广泛的非专家用户社区对这些产品的需求都有记录。这些目标和数据输出通过创建“能够利用人口普查数据进行研究的工具和研究就绪的数据集”并处理“与其他数据源（包括政府行政数据）相关联的人口普查数据”和“已纵向相连。”借助软件工具更好地利用 2021 年人口普查数据。我们的项目将通过利用以下优势来实现其目的和目标：NISRA 和 ESRC 之前对独特的 100m 和 1km NI 网格方形产品 (GSP) (1971-2021) 的投资。这些数据将被完整记录并准备好用于 (i) 在单一人口普查年份中使用； (ii) 对两次或多次人口普查进行时间比较。将创建查找表，通过最佳拟合近似将 100m 网格与选定的统计地理联系起来。此外，还将探索创建用户定义的社区。 NISRA 数据门户。从这些代表选区级别的广泛数据（例如入学率、福利计数）中选择的领域将通过查找表与 2021 年人口普查（和其他年份）数据相关联。共同设计、社区外展和网络资源经验在 QUB 中创建 (https://www.qub.ac.uk/sites/qcap/about-us/QCAPApproach/)。这将用于了解哪些主题领域有价值，以及如何使网络资源易于使用。该项目将于 2024 年 3 月至 2026 年 3 月期间运行。维护和更新网络资源需要最少的持续支持。
