GSIM and GSBPM GSIM describes the information objects and GSIM describes the information objects and flows within the statistical business process. So what is GSIM? A reference framework of information objects: • Definitions • Attributes • Relationships GSIM aligns with relevant standards such as DDI and SDMX GSIM gives us standard terminology 5
What next? 2 big projects for 2013 1: Standards Implementing GSIM • Help, support, training • Knowledge base • Platform for sharing experiences Reviewing / revising GSBPM and GSIM Integrating standards Integrating standards • Map GSIM to SDMX and DDI • Geospatial standards • Fundamental Principles of Official Statistics 6
2: Common Statistical Production Architecture Generalized Statistical Statistical Production System Production System GSBPM GSIM Common Generic Industrial Statistics Methods Technology Implementing standards-based statistical production “Plug and Play” 7
