Population Census 2010 - Indonesia

Abstract
---------------------------

The 2010 Population Census has been designed to meet various data needs, including as (1) the basis for updating population data bases up to the lowest level of administrative unit (village); (2) valuable input in monitoring the progress for achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs); (3) the basis for preparing small area statistics; (4) basis for preparing population projection; (5) the basic data in developing sampling frame for various surveys conducted between 2010-2020.

During the 2010 Population Census it is estimated that the population of Indonesia would be around 232 million people who live in about 65 million households. Considering the huge number of population to be recorded the field enumeration will require more than 650.00 field workers, which consist about 450.000 enumerators, 150.000 team coordinators, and 15.000 field coordinators. Data collection is designed to be undertaken in groups, each group (team) consist of four persons, i.e. three numerators and one team coordinator. All field workers would have undertaken a three-day training before hand.

The peak of census operations will be during the months of May 2010 where field enumeration will be taking place simultaneously overall the geographical area of Indonesia. May 15 will be designated as the Census Date of the 2010 Population Census, therefore on the 15 of May 2010 the homeless and nomadic population will be canvassing.

Updating population data is a very crucial issue in the upcoming population census, in the sense that since the implementation of decentralization in 2001 the number of administrative units in the regions (province, district, sub district, and village) have been increasing tremendously, such that statistical measures could not appropriately follows the changes. Prior to decentralization the number of provinces was 27, districts 297, sub districts 4.200, and villages about 65.000. At present the number of provinces is 33, districts 497, sub districts about 7.000, and villages about 75.000.

In the modern context there is always an increasing demand for data and information, and this is not an exception for the census as well. A census being a huge national undertaking incurring substantial amount of money, while the resources are always constrained and limited. The choice of topic to be covered in a census mainly depends upon the user needs. However, as society becomes complex the demand of population data for development plans is not only increasing but the level of such information is switching to smaller administrative levels, while census being a complex and large operation has its own limitations in meeting all the demands of data users. Another main consideration for determining census topic is to maintain comparability and continuity of the census information.

There are three kind of questionnaires will be used in the 2010 Population Census, namely C1 (42 questions) for enumerate regular household who live in the areas that are covered in the mapping, C2 (14 questions) for enumerate population who live in the areas which are not included in the mapping such as remote areas, Indonesia corps diplomatic who live abroad and L2 (number and sex) for enumerate homeless people, boat people, and tribes.

The questionnaires hopefully can accommodate the data required for the compilations of MDG Indicators, which is essential for national policy making and monitoring. The census questionnaires are presently being developed taking into considerations of the relevant United Nation recommendations as well as the suitability of the items collected to meet local conditions.

In the past population censuses, data were collected basically by face-to-face interviews, where enumerators visited all households to interview persons therein one by one. In light of the changing lifestyle of big cities people and advancement of technology, new and additional means for data collection from the households will be introduced in the 2010 Population Census. Under the new multi-modal data collection approach, e-census on the Internet and self-enumeration will be rolled out, along with the traditional “interviewer” method.

Cleaning operations
---------------------------

The processing of data collected in a census constitutes one of the most important and challenging activities that have to be undertaken efficiently and expeditiously in order to justify the immense resources invested in a census. This activity entailed several processes: manual editing of the questionnaires after enumeration, data capture, data cleaning and validation, and finally tabulation. Intelligence character recognition (ICR) technology will be employed for data capture.

Government’s commitment to provide provisional results within two and half months after enumeration and final results within another six months greatly influenced the strategies and actions adopted at every stage of data processing in order to adhere to the commitment.

摘要
---------------------------
2010年人口普查旨在满足各种数据需求，包括：（1）更新至最低行政单元（村庄）层面的人口数据库；（2）作为监测实现千年发展目标（MDGs）进展的重要依据；（3）为编制小区域统计提供基础；（4）为编制人口预测提供基础；（5）为2010年至2020年间进行的各项调查制定抽样框架提供基本数据。
在2010年人口普查期间，预计印度尼西亚人口约为2.32亿，生活在约6500万户家庭中。鉴于需记录的人口数量巨大，现场计数将需要超过65000名现场工作人员，其中包括约450000名计数员、150000名团队协调员和15000名现场协调员。数据收集旨在以小组为单位进行，每组（团队）由四名人员组成，即三名计数员和一名团队协调员。所有现场工作人员均在普查前接受了为期三天的培训。
普查活动的峰值将在2010年5月，届时将在印度尼西亚的整个地理区域内同时进行现场计数。5月15日将被指定为2010年人口普查的普查日，因此，在2010年5月15日，无家可归者和游牧人口将进行普查。
更新人口数据是即将到来的人口普查中的一个极其重要的问题，因为自2001年实施地方分权以来，各地区（省、区、街道和村庄）的行政单元数量大幅增加，以至于统计措施无法适当地跟上这些变化。在地方分权之前，省的数量为27个，区297个，街道4200个，村庄约65000个。目前，省的数量为33个，区497个，街道约7000个，村庄约75000个。

在现代背景下，对数据和信息的需求总是日益增长，普查也不例外。普查是一项耗资巨大的国家级项目，而资源总是有限和受限的。普查中涵盖的主题选择主要取决于用户需求。然而，随着社会的日益复杂，对用于发展计划的人口数据的需要不仅日益增长，而且此类信息的需求层次也在向更小的行政级别转变，而普查作为一个复杂且庞大的操作，在满足所有数据用户需求方面有其自身的局限性。确定普查主题的另一个主要考虑因素是保持普查信息的可比性和连续性。
2010年人口普查中将使用三种类型的问卷，即C1（42个问题），用于计数居住在绘图覆盖区域内的常规家庭；C2（14个问题），用于计数居住在未包括在绘图内的地区的人口，如偏远地区、居住在海外的印度尼西亚外交官；L2（数量和性别），用于计数无家可归者、船民和部落人口。
希望这些问卷能够满足编制千年发展目标指标所需的数据，这对于国家政策制定和监控至关重要。普查问卷目前正在开发中，考虑到相关联合国建议以及收集的条目适合满足当地条件的适宜性。
在过去的人口普查中，数据主要通过面对面访谈收集，即计数员访问所有家庭并对其中人员进行逐一访谈。鉴于大城市居民生活方式的变化和技术的进步，2010年人口普查将引入新的和额外的从家庭收集数据的方法。在新多模式数据收集方法下，将推出互联网上的电子普查和自行计数，以及传统的“访谈员”方法。
数据清理操作
---------------------------
普查中收集到的数据处理构成了必须高效且迅速完成的最重要的和最具挑战性的活动之一，以便证明对普查投入的巨大资源。该活动包括几个过程：计数后的问卷人工编辑、数据捕捉、数据清理和验证，最后是制表。将采用智能字符识别（ICR）技术进行数据捕捉。
政府承诺在普查后两个月半内提供临时结果，在另六个月内提供最终结果，这对每个阶段数据处理中采用的策略和行动产生了重大影响，以确保履行承诺。
