European Data Access Comes True Decentralised and Remote Access to Confidential Data in the ESS (ESSnet DARA)

摘要

The question of microdata access is solved in most of the EU Member States and the access to national data is basically possible in one or another way. This infrastructure can be used now to satisfy the strong demand for cross country analysis for comparison and evaluation of the developments between EU Member States. There are several goals and ambitions to establish a cross boarder access to European Statistics. The project "Decentralised and Remote Access to Confidential Data in the ESS" is going to deliver a running remote access system from the access facility in the National Statistical Institutes of the Member States to the European statistics at Eurostat within the next year. Before that, technical, methodological, organisational and legal aspects need to be solved.
