This paper discusses how Statistics Netherlands managed to respond quickly with a range of new outputs following the outbreak of the covid-19 pandemic. First, it describes the innovation process and...

Sensors are accurate, which is why Statistics Netherlands (CBS) is exploring various ways to implement them – e.g. as a substitute for survey questionnaires

The participants were asked to develop a sensor which could measure the various aspects of physically straining work

Society’s need to describe complex phenomena - such as the consequences of an economic crisis - is growing exponentially.

Statistics Netherlands (CBS) is continuously innovating, also in the field of business data collection. We are permanently on the look-out for new data sources and alternative ways of collecting...

A short impression of the Sensor Data Challenge. The second Sensor Data Challenge event took place on 24-25 January 2019 at HighTechCentreDelft. Altogether almost 30 candidates from various...

App-assisted travel surveys use location and motion sensors to measure location and to predict means of transportation. This discussion paper describes the machine learning techniques to translate...

How can we make smarter use of technology in Dutch health research.

How many locations were you visiting today? Think of: work, child care, supermarket, gym...? And how much time did you spend driving, or how far did you cycle today?

smart way in which sensors can be used to measure people’s health, lifestyle and living conditions

This spring, the social sciences data platform ODISSEI received a grant of more than 9 million euros from the Dutch Research Council (NWO).

Travel surveys with apps focus on reduction of respondent burden.

Big data has received increasing attention across several disciplines in recent years. In official statistics, big data potentially enables us to produce statistics cheaper, faster, and on a higher...

The use of non-probability data as a primary data source in official statistics is currently an active field of research.

Time-based diary surveys collect data over specified time intervals and impose a heavy response burden.

Innovative research has been carried out to see whether data from Rijkswaterstaat’s Information and Safety System (IVS) can be used to improve the added value and production value of inland shipping...
