    To improve census accuracy, the one-number census (ONC) project was developed. It uses a census coverage survey (CCS) to measure and adjust for underenumeration in the 2001 census.

    Area of Science:

    • Demography
    • Statistical Methodology
    • Population Studies

    Background:

    • Lessons from the 1991 UK census highlighted the need for improved census methodology.
    • Underenumeration remains a significant challenge in achieving complete population coverage.
    • The goal is to maximize coverage in the 2001 census and account for unavoidable undercounts.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce the one-number census (ONC) project.
    • To detail the design and analysis methodology of the census coverage survey (CCS).
    • To provide results for evaluating the robustness of the ONC methodology.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of the one-number census (ONC) project.
    • Design of a comprehensive census coverage survey (CCS).
