  1. CountryDataSDMX forDevelopment Indicators MDG DSD vs. the Di Database: Using the Mapping Tool

  2. MDG Data Structure Definition (DSD) background • Developed by SDMX Task Team of IAEG on MDGs • Supports exchange of MDG Indicator data between international agencies (UN, UNICEF, UNESCO, …) • Implemented in SDMX 2.0 • Latest version (2.4) finalised in Feb 2013

  3. DevInfo (Di) background • Data dissemination software supported and promoted by UNICEF • DevInfo7 (Di7) launched in Nov 2012 • SDMX 2.1 & 2.0 compliant • Web base software • 9 out of 11 project countries using DevInfo • Stable version compare to previous releases

  4. Simple relation between Di & DSD Di Database MDG DSD • Frequency (Default = “Annual”) • Reference Area • Series • Units of measurement • Unit multiplier (Default = 0) • Location (Default = “Total”) • Age group (Default = “All Ages”) • Sex (Default = “Both Sexes”) • Source Type (Default = “NA”) • Source details • Time Period • Time period details • Nature of data points (Default = “C”) • Footnotes • Area • Indicator • Unit • Subgroup (i.e. Sex, Age, Location etc.) • Source • Time Period • Footnotes

  5. Mapping to the DSD • DSD dimensional structure means values are mandatory for LOCATION, SEX & AGE GROUP. • Due the nature of this domain (i.e. MDGs), not obvious which values should be used in these dimensions • For example, what is SEX for “Births attended by skilled personnel”: • Not Applicable? Total? Female?

  6. Mapping to the DSD • Inconsistent mappings lead to duplications and other anomalies • In CountryData, mappings for indicators/ time series are agreed before data exchange (see mapping for MDGs from 1st workshop) • However, this is just one side of the story…

  7. Mapping to the DSD • Understanding the structure and contents of the origin database is fundamental to the mapping process • Mapping to the DSD requires the data to enter into certain ‘restrictions’ it’s not bound by in the database (and vice versa).

  8. Mapping to the DSD • The mapping tool in di software is designed to work with the di database as simply as possible… • the tool is based on mapping between the codelists of the DSD and origin database; • certain situations require some further manual effort to map a time series; • and sometimes a “fix” is required to the database where the data simply isn’t valid or it’s duplicated. • Therefore it’s good to review di structure to understand where these issues usually occur.

  9. Di Data Architecture • Area, hierarchical dimension • IUS = Indicator, Unit and Subgroup • Time series data are stored with the combination of the 3 dimensions • Indicator • Unit • Subgroup: Combination of one or more sub-dimensions • Source & Time Period • Together with IUS “uniquely” defines each data value • Footnote • “Free text” field stored with data value

  10. Di INDICATOR • IUS: Indicator Unit Subgroup • Indicator, for example: • Infant Mortality • AIDS Death • Malaria Death • Similar to SERIES in the DSD • Contains only Indicator specific values

  11. Di UNIT • IUS: Indicator Unit Subgroup • Unit: • Percentage • Number • USD • Square KM • Similar to UNIT of Measurement in DSD • Contains only Unit specific values

  12. Di SUBGROUP • IUS: Indicator Unit Subgroup • SubGroup Dimension: • Combination of one or more sub-dimensions • “Age”, “Sex”, “Location” and “Other” sub-dimensions are set initially in database • Specific values can be created under each sub-dimension • Relate to SEX, AGE GROUP and LOCATION in DSD.

  13. Di SUBGROUP Sub-Dimension Age Sex Location Other Sub-Dimension values < 1 Year < 5 Year 5 – 10 Year Male Female Total Rice Wheat Urban Rural SUBGROUP (Combination) <1 Year Male <5 Year Female Rural Urban • IUS: Indicator Unit Subgroup • Formation Logic:

  18. Di Mapping Tool: Introduction Once data exists in di7 web-based software then data can be mapped and published which conforms with the MDG DSD. This is all done online through the di7 web-based repository through the administration profile, so let’s begin…

  19. Getting Started…

  20. Scroll down to ‘Registry’ menu

  21. Log onto administrative profile

  22. Log onto administrative profile

  23. Full access to ‘Registry’ features

  24. Prepare the Dbase for mapping

  25. Prepares the SDMX artefactes

  26. Ready to ‘Upload’ the DSD

  27. Choose a DSD from your folders

  28. Choose a DSD from your folders

  29. DSD Upload is a success…

  30. Now you are ready to map…

  31. 1st Step: Codelist mapping

  32. 1st Step: DSD Codelists

  33. 1st Step: (A) Map Indicator codes

  34. 1st Step: (B) Map Unit codes

  35. 1st Step: (C) Map Subgroup codes

  36. 1st Step: (C) Choose Subgroup list

  37. 1st Step: (C) Map Age subgroup

  38. 1st Step: (C) Map Sex & Location

  39. 1st Step: (D) Map Area

  40. 1st Step: Save codelist mappings

  41. 1st Step: Ignore warning

  42. 1st Step: Confirm mapping saved

  43. Exercise 1: Codelist mapping • Use unstats.un.org/unsd/demodiweb[1-6] • Username = webmaster@xyz.com • Password = support@2012 • Map the codelists (where possible) for • Unit • Age • Sex • Location • Area • And just one indicator, “Antenatal care coverage for at least one visit”

  44. 1st Step: Complete

  45. 2nd Step: Confirm IUS mapping

  46. 2nd Step: Save IUS Mappings

  47. Exercise 2: mapping time series • Use unstats.un.org/unsd/demodiweb[1-6] • Username = webmaster@xyz.com • Password = support@2012 • Map the time series for • “Antenatal care coverage for at least four visits” • “Employment to population ratio” • “Literacy rate of 15-24 year-olds” • “Death rate associated with malaria” • “Proportion of population using solid fuels”

  48. 2nd Step: Complete

  49. Final Step: Register the mappings

  50. Final Step: Select mappings
