"Small area estimation in the Office for National Statistics (ONS) -
research and practice"
"To meet the growing demand for accurate economic and social
information at sub-regional level, the ONS is conducting research
into small area estimation techniques. I will discuss why we need
to use these techniques in the UK, and what the standard
estimators are. The remainder of my talk will cover current work on
estimating ILO unemployment for LAD/UAs."
All are welcome.
