Highlights of the success story

Improving the accuracy and updating of surveys

Thanks to the mobile network data sources, the sample sizes of the statistics are closer to the universe and the update frequency of the statistics will be higher.

More frequent, detailed and timely information

The new data sources will mean that INE will be able to provide society with more frequent, detailed and timely information.

What others say about us

    “The third statistical revolution is the data revolution. At INE we are aware that the new sources of information that have proliferated in such a digitalised society are a great opportunity for the producers of statistics, as these new sources will allow us to provide much more timely, detailed and frequent information.”
