Workshop on Advanced Data Processing Techniques in Support of Census Taking / presented by Statistics Canada in Ottawa, Canada, from September 23 to November 1, 1991, under the aegis of the United Nations.: CS11-0021/1992E-PDF

"This document describes the workshop held in the Fall of 1991 at Statistics Canada in Ottawa. The event dealt with advanced data processing techniques in support of census taking and it was meant for developing countries. The participants came from 22 Sub-Saharan African countries and had been selected by the United Nations. The workshop was the third and last of a series dealing with censuses. In the two previous years, Statistics Canada had organized workshops on methodology and cartography. The organization of a workshop on advanced data processing techniques using microcomputers was the first of its kind by Statistics Canada. The Census Operations Division organized the workshop by calling on the expertise of international organizations, the personnel of numerous divisions within Statistics Canada and also with companies from both the U.S. and Canada. The first objective of this document is to describe the contents of the workshop to the sponsors and to the participating countries. The second objective is to create a base of discussion for the development of future courses"--Introd., p. 5.
