Is Statistical Operation a GSIM Statistical Program? #5

Closed FlavioRizzolo closed 5 years ago

FlavioRizzolo commented 5 years ago

Could the Insee notion of Statistical Operation be modeled as a Statistical Program or a subclass of it?

FranckCo commented 5 years ago

Notes from March 7 meeting:

Yes, insee:StatisticalOperation is a subclass of the StatisticalProgram.

FranckCo commented 5 years ago

Comments on the March 7 meeting notes:

So we create a StatisticalProgram class in the COOS. Do we also create StatisticalOperation, and if yes linked how to StatisticalProgram?

FlavioRizzolo commented 5 years ago

GSIM Statistical Programs seem to be an instantiations of StatisticalProductionActivity. See Explanatory Text here:

https://statswiki.unece.org/display/newclick/Statistical+Program

"Some examples of Statistical Program are: Labour Force Survey - Multipurpose Household Survey - National Accounts - Demography - Overseas Arrivals and Departures"

I propose to make coos:StatisticalProgram a sub-class of coos:Activity, because programs may contain activities that are not strictly production or even statistical.

FranckCo commented 5 years ago

Decided during July 2 meeting: make coos:StatisticalProgram a sub-class of coos:StatisticalActivity in order to be coherent with GSIM that explicitly mentions "This does not include statistical support functions such as metadata management, data management (and other overarching GSBPM processes) and design functions. These activities are conducted as part of Statistical Support Programs."

The link with StatisticalSupportProgram is dealt with in issue #4.
