CBS and data, what can we do with it?

We live in a world that generates more and more data, so we know a lot more and can also put things directly into context.

One of the largest data collection companies in the Netherlands is the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS). The Brightlands Smart Services Campus (BSSC) in Heerlen is home to the Parkstad Limburg Data Center, in which CBS works with seven Parkstad municipalities (Beekdaelen, Brunssum, Heerlen, Kerkrade, Landgraaf, Simpelveld and Voerendaal) and the Parkstad Limburg City Region. Together they conduct regional research in the field of socio-economic issues, housing, mobility, tourism, sustainability and economy.

During this event, Tim Muller and Rob van Kan from CBS will tell you more about what CBS does with the data they collect. Topics that will be discussed are:

 

Covenant
