IPUMS-International Activity Report: September 2011 The IPUMS-International project proposal identified four core activities for the 2009-2014 grant period: (1) Data acquisition and long-run preservation. We continue to acquire data from around the world, both by expanding the list of participating countries and by obtaining more data from our existing partners. These additional data include both the 2010 round of censuses and older microdata files still to be recovered from obsolete data storage media. (2) Data cleaning and processing. Before new microdata files can be added to the IPUMSInternational database, they must be cleaned and processed. This task includes standardizing data formats and correcting format errors; assessing data quality and coverage problems; drawing high-density samples; correcting internal inconsistencies by using logical and probabilistic procedures; analyzing confidentiality risks and applying statistical confidentiality protections; and harmonizing variable codes. (3) Documentation and added value. Comprehensive documentation is an essential facet of our work. The goal is to provide guidance to users on the meaning of census responses and their comparability across time and space. As we add new censuses to the database, comparability issues multiply. We develop documentation from original enumeration materials in consultation with experts from each country. In addition, the project provides a variety of new variables and tools to aid in analysis. (4) Dissemination. Our proposal promised to enhance our web-based dissemination system by improving tools for navigating documentation, defining datasets, and constructing customized variables. We also proposed new on-line data analysis and collaboration software. To ensure the broadest possible constituency for the data, we also plan an expanded program of education and dissemination activities. We began work under the current NSF grant in August 2009 and met for the first time with our new Advisory Committee in October 2010. The new committee challenged us to anticipate the future on two fronts by developing plans (1) to build the user base (or to create an outreach and dissemination plan) and (2) to position ourselves, organizationally, to successfully sustain IPUMS International in light of the Minnesota Population Center's new Terra Populus project. This document summarizes our core activities during the past year, including our plans and activities to raise our visibility among the research, policy and governmental communities.

Acquiring and preserving data Statistical agencies of 96 countries have endorsed the project Memorandum of Understanding, and 92 countries have entrusted microdata (Appendix A). Several other countries are close to signing, including Benin, Republic of Korea, and Nigeria, where, after an entire day of

discussion, the full Census Commission voted to entrust a 5% household sample of the 2006 census, pending approval from the political authorities.1 Microdata for 351 censuses (118 countries) have been acquired—39 in the past year. For the 2010 census round (2005-2014), we acquired datasets for Burkina Faso, Cambodia, Fiji, France, Mexico, Indonesia, Nigeria (General Household Surveys), Sudan (including South Sudan), Panama, Uruguay, and Vietnam. Next year, we expect to receive 9 more from the 2010 round: Brazil, Ghana, Israel, Kenya, Kyrgyzstan, Malaysia, Mongolia, Mozambique, and perhaps Nigeria. Acquiring comprehensive metadata requires effort and persistence. For example, in the case of Burkina Faso, microdata were shipped over a period of six months until finally nearly complete datasets were assembled for the historical censuses of 1985 and 1996. Similarly for Cameroun: if we had accepted the initial shipment, the datasets would have been far less comprehensive than what we currently have. The Togo microcensus of 1958, a quarter million person records, was keyed from the original forms at modest cost. Similarly a 20% sample of the 1956 census of Mongolia and 97% of the 1976 census of Fiji were recovered by keying from the original forms. The PNG 1980 census microdata are no longer extant in Port Moresby, but we were able to acquire a complete, validated copy from a third party. We are making progress on the 1981 censuses of Peru and Bangladesh, but the microdata remains incomplete. Meanwhile the official statistical agencies of Canada, France, Malaysia, and the United Kingdom have entertained proposals to enhance the series of high precision household samples stretching back to the 1970s. We have subcontracted through Harvard University the services of a retired U.S. Census Bureau employee, Michael Levin, who literally wrote the book on census data editing. His assistance is particularly valuable in acquiring data for the 2010 round census microdata. Thanks to his efforts, we were able to launch 2008 census samples for both Malawi and Sudan. We have offered Levin’s assistance to the statistical agencies of Cameroun, Ethiopia, Nigeria, and Mozambique to draw samples in situ for their most recent censuses. We also fund his activities where we have no agreement, with the understanding of the corresponding official statistical agency that in exchange a copy of microdata will be entrusted to the Minnesota Population Center.

Data cleaning and processing Significant effort on the project this past year involved processing new samples. We added 26 new samples from 12 countries to the data series in June 2011, thereby adding more than 71 million new person records. These new samples are indicated with a symbol in Appendix A, which lists all samples now being disseminated. The data release included about 40 new integrated variables, as well as 2100 unharmonized variables (i.e., "source variables") unique to the individual samples. Most of the new integrated variables are country-specific data relating to geography, ethnicity, or language. Apart from adding country-specific variables of this type, we 1

tend to limit the pool of integrated variables to a few hundred that are available across multiple countries. When deciding which countries to include in a data release, we typically must weigh the competing values of efficiency and geographic range. As 2010 round census data increasingly becomes available from partner countries, we also feel a new responsibility to enhance chronological depth. Processing data from a few countries, each of which has a string of datasets, is efficient. Processing data from more countries, each of which has only one or two datasets, expands the geographic scope of the database. Processing newly available samples from countries already in the collection is desirable for different reasons; researchers are eager to extend previous analysis across the latest samples, and releasing 2010 round data in a timely fashion helps us secure such data from other existing partners. For the June 2011 release, we tried to balance all three concerns by including series data from seven new countries as well as 2010 round data from five existing partners. We confront data challenges yearly, and this year was no exception. Routine problems stem from missing or erroneous documentation of sample design, data structure, variable labels, etc. For example, during the past year we encountered problems arising from complicated skip patterns in the 2001 Census of Jamaica, requiring a significant investment of research time in order to properly document variable universes. As is often the case, mismatches between old data and old data codebooks arose for a number of samples, delaying data reformatting a bit more than usual last year. Some samples from Ireland were missing labels or contained erroneous labels, particularly for relationship variables. Again, significant investigation was required to reconstruct correct codes. Remaining problems in the way relationship categories were grouped in some Ireland samples, posed challenges for the creation of the pointer variables. Fortunately, we were able to solve or work around most of these problems and release the intended samples on time. We added the 2008 Census of Sudan this year. These data were collected by two different agencies (North and South), as essentially two data sets merged into one. We had to take great care in documenting sample design characteristics, documenting variable universes, and in constructing weights. The data were severely delayed, arriving well beyond the deadline we typically enforce for including data in the yearly release cycle. However, political events in Sudan, past and contemporary, made this highly desirable and sought-after data. We opted to invest the extra time and effort at the expense of short delays in other side projects in order to include the data in the June 2011 release. A number of researchers contacted us throughout the Spring of 2011 to inquire when the Sudan data would be made public, and many of them did, in fact, register to use the Sudan data within the first few weeks of its release. These researchers also made good use of our user support team. Specific data challenges, such as those described above, are part of the typical processing cycle in the yearly life of IPUMS International. Other challenges arise from the increasing size and scope of the project in general. Fortunately, technology has evolved so that computing capacity is no longer an enormous concern for a project such as IPUMS International, though financial investment in computing remains essential. However, as we add samples, add better geographic information, and make plans for a full count and high density sample data enclave, we run into

the legacy of processing decisions made earlier in the life of the project. A handful of integrated variables would benefit from reorganization as they become unwieldy under the weight of slight conceptual differences across samples. Also, at some point in the near future, we should make adjustments to our data reformatting process to facilitate more efficient geographic and full count data processing. The need is not immediate, but requires a carefully organized plan and a significant labor effort. Any change in a variable coding scheme or reformatting procedure must be run across all 200+ samples. In a future year, a lighter integration production load may be necessary in order to carry out these data reformatting and variable adjustments.

Documentation and added value Throughout the life of the project, IPUMS International has added features to aid researchers in their work and to extend the reach of the data for new analytic uses. A considerable amount of work each year is invested in providing extensive documentation, not only about variables themselves, but also about enumeration methods, sample design, comparability across data sets, and international standards on which our variables are based. Over the years, we have added supplemental migration and fertility files, where available, as stand-alone downloadable data files with matching keys to corresponding census files. We expand the collection of supplemental files with each data release. In 2008, we added family location variables to enable researchers to capitalize on information about family context. Each year since then our process includes work to construct these "pointers" for the new data sets. In 2009, we began adding boundary files corresponding to the country and first administrative level geographic units available in the microdata. These boundaries aid researchers in mapping data based on place of residence, place of birth, or migration variables in the sample. Each year's processing work now includes the research and preparation of boundary files for new countries in the collection as well as work to extend boundary information for existing countries. We are beginning to collect or create lower level geographic boundaries corresponding to information in the microdata and are piloting methods for creating consistent geographic units over time. Resulting boundary files will enhance IPUMS International and extend the reach of the project by enabling the fusion of census microdata with other geographic information, such as environmental and land use data. Over the past year, our research assistants, in consultation with PIs, other faculty, and project researchers, have been developing a Wealth Index constructed from household asset information available in IPUMS International samples. Presentations of their early results have been well received and have garnered significant attention at several academic conferences.

Dissemination Our primary strategy in attracting users is, and has always been, creating a high quality data collection and user friendly dissemination system. We continue to believe that this is the most reliable means of attracting researchers to IPUMS and generating the kind of word of mouth that snowballs over time. We of course engage in a variety of other activities to supplement that core approach and we're continually searching for angles that will allow us to gain traction in new user groups.

Web development We continuously work on updating the web interface to take advantage of the latest and best trends in web design in order to make the user experience as friendly as possible. We continued to improve our web dissemination system this year. For the first time, we conducted formal website usability testing, which informed improvements in website functionality, organization, and documentation. The most significant changes were those pertaining to the design and layout of navigation elements and a move to tabbed variable descriptions. We also advanced the shopping metaphor using a data cart and “check out” system. We expect these changes to make navigation of the web system more intuitive to researchers. Outreach plan and progress We are developing new technology to broaden the audience for the data and encourage classroom use. First, we are developing software for online data analysis, which allows students and others to conduct many analyses without downloading the data. The system is operational, and will be deployed shortly. Second, we have developed tools for disseminating binary files (native-format SAS, SPSS and Stata files), so that users will not have to convert the data from ASCII into a proprietary format. This software is also ready and will be released as soon as we can obtain a formal license from the StatTransfer company, which provided key components of the system. Third, we are developing classroom user registration technology to simplify use of the data by large groups of students. The combination of these three technologies will significantly enhance our ability to attract a broader research audience, including those in training who have the potential to become our biggest advocates and most productive researchers in the future. Another avenue we are eager to pursue is the development of overseas partners that can make inroads in particular regions. For years we have had a mirror site at Barcelona that serves up our data through a portal containing additional European content. This past year we set up a similar site at the African Centre for Statistics in Addis Ababa, an organization sponsored by the UN and the African Development Bank. The site is still young, but we hope it can serve as a basis for capacity building and goodwill in the area. Our growing success in developing an African constituency is evident in overwhelming use of IPUMS by the authors of the African Demography Handbook. Meanwhile our Barcelona partners recently got funding to conduct a series of training sessions with the IPUMS data, and we've been working with them to aid in that effort. Workshops, conference participation, presentations We took advantage of every feasible opportunity for disseminating information about IPUMSInternational to the wider research community of existing and potential users. These activities included staffing dissemination booths in exhibition halls at academic conferences and meetings (listed below). We also held workshops for data producers and data users, demonstrated the use of IPUMS-International for social science research, and presented papers at academic conferences. All of these activities are included in Appendix B.

The award was publicized at the Population Association of America meetings and among registered users of the IPUMS database. The 2010 competition resulted in dozens of submissions for IPUMS-International. Those published as journal articles or working papers are included in the publications list (Appendix D). Several graduate student papers were submitted that had not yet been submitted for publication. Additional author-reported publications for 2011 are included in the bibliography. Hoyt Bleakley, Associate Professor of Economics at the University of Chicago, won the 2010 award for best published research paper. His article, “Malaria Eradication in the Americas: A Retrospective Analysis of Childhood Exposure,” was published in the American Economic Journal: Applied Economics 2:2 (2010). The graduate student award went to Willa Friedman, a student in the Department of Economics, University of California at Berkeley, for her paper on “Local Economic Conditions and Participation in the Rwandan Genocide.”

New initiatives We have received funding from NIH to add data the North Atlantic Population Project (NAPP) to IPUMS-International. NAPP is a collaboration of national archives and other research organizations in 12 countries devoted to creating large-scale historical census microdata. The project currently disseminates 110 million records of data mainly from the nineteenth century; over the coming five years, it is scheduled to expand to 384 million records enumerated between 1786 and 1930. For about 90 percent of these samples, IPUMS will provide closely comparable data for the same countries in the late twentieth century, permitting analysis of change over the very long run. By adding NAPP to IPUMS, we will simplify such long-run comparisons. We also hope that IPUMS can help ensure a high standards of quality of NAPP data and metadata and can help ensure long-run sustainability of the database. Because NAPP has its own funding, the major cost to IPUMS is in the careful planning for the merger by the senior staff. This merger will be executed over at least a two-year period.

We have also received major funding from the NSF Office of Cyberinfrastructure for Terra Populus: a Global Population/Environment Data Network. The central goal of TerraPop is to make IPUMS-International interoperable with data on land cover, land use, and climate. For the microdata user this will mean data extracts that contain the non-population attributes of geographies as contextual variables. TerraPop has its own resources, but it must be carefully coordinated with IPUMS-International, and much of its potential for population research hinges on the improvement of geographic information in the census microdata. To make TerraPop work, we will need to make and acquire a comprehensive collection of digital maps for administrative boundaries over time around the world.
