Historic Environment Division Lidar 2009

The Historic Environment Division (HED) acquired LIDAR over a six year period from 2008 to 2014 to assist with the interpretation and protection of archaeological landscapes in Northern Ireland.

A total area of approximately 130km2 was surveyed during this period across 39 sites. The data is provided “as is” under an Open Government Licence and is not supported.

LIDAR Airborne LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging), also known as Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) is a landscape survey technique that uses a laser beam transmitted in rapid pulses from an aircraft in order to accurately measure the distance between the aircraft and the ground. The laser pulses allow measurements to be taken in the order of 100,000 times per second with a vertical accuracy of 0.5cm which produces a dense cloud of points which can then be interpolated to produce an accurate three dimensional model of the landscape below.

In this instance surveys are supplied as either digital surface model (DSM) or as a digital terrain model (DTM).

For the DTM, buildings and vegetation have been removed and only ground returns have used to produce the model.

The technique can be particularly valuable for archaeological survey as it allows large areas to be surveyed accurately enough for the subtle topographic traces of archaeological features to be identified.

The data below was collected in 2009, the attached PDF coverage map shows the areas surveyed in that year.

Draft Programme for Government Framework 2016-21

On 26 May 2016, the Executive agreed the draft Programme for Government Framework 2016-21.
The draft framework contains 14 strategic outcomes which, taken together, set a clear direction of travel and enable continuous improvement on the essential components of societal wellbeing.  They touch on every aspect of government, including the attainment of good health and education, economic success and confident and peaceful communities.  In addition to merely fulfilling our statutory obligations, we will in future be able to target those things that make real improvements to the quality of life for the citizen.
The outcomes are supported by 42 indicators which are clear statements for change. Each indicator is accompanied by a measure derived in the main from existing statistics. These will show how the Executive is performing in relation to the outcomes and will provide a basis to monitor progress and take corrective action.

Northern Ireland Multiple Deprivation Measure 2005

The 2005 Northern Ireland Multiple Deprivation Measure (NIMDM 2005) contains seven domains of deprivation: 
• Income Deprivation 
• Employment Deprivation 
• Health Deprivation and Disability 
• Education, Skills and Training Deprivation 
• Proximity to Services Deprivation 
• Living Environment Deprivation 
• Crime and Disorder Indicators. 

Each domain contains a number of indicators, totalling 43 overall. Where possible, the indicators relate to 2003. 
The criteria for inclusion of these indicators were that they should be: 
• ‘domain specific’ and appropriate for the purpose (as direct as possible measures of that form of deprivation); 
• measuring major features of that deprivation (not conditions just experienced by a very small number of people or areas); 
• up-to-date; 
• capable of being updated on a regular basis; 
• statistically robust; and 
• available for the whole of Northern Ireland at a small area level in a consistent form.

Results are provided for these domains and the overall multiple deprivation measure in the form of ranks.  Areas are ordered from most deprived (rank 1) to least deprived.

The Northern Ireland Multiple Deprivation Measure 2005 report is available at https://www.nisra.gov.uk/publications/northern-ireland-multiple-deprivation-measure-2005-report

Please note that the csv deprivation files were created by the Open Data Team as a sample csv for NISRA.

Northern Ireland Multiple Deprivation Measure 2010

The 2010 Northern Ireland Multiple Deprivation Measure (NIMDM 2010) comprises seven domains of deprivation, each developed to measure a distinct form or type of deprivation. 

The NIMDM 2010 is a combination of all seven deprivation domains, weighted as follows: 
Income Deprivation (25%); 
Employment Deprivation (25%); 
Health Deprivation and Disability (15%); 
Education Skills and Training Deprivation (15%); 
Proximity to Services (10%); 
Living Environment (5%); and 
Crime and Disorder (5%). 

Results are provided for these domains and the overall multiple deprivation measure in the form of ranks.  Areas are ordered from most deprived (rank 1) to least deprived. The main output geography for the deprivation measures is the Super Output Area.

The Northern Ireland Multiple Deprivation Measure 2010 report is available at https://www.nisra.gov.uk/publications/northern-ireland-multiple-deprivation-measure-2010

Police Recorded Injury Road Traffic Collision Statistics Northern Ireland 2016

The PSNI produces statistics on injury road traffic collisions (RTCs) that are reported to the Police. These statistics are collected in accordance with the STATS20 guidance from the Department for Transport (DfT) and are comparable with the statistics in Great Britain (GB). Damage only collisions or those collisions resulting in no injuries are excluded from these statistics.

Type of Long-Term Condition by Age by Sex DC3101NI

The Census collected information on the resident population of Northern Ireland on Census Day (27 March 2011). Questionnaires were delivered to every household and communal establishment and residents asked to complete and return with information as correct on Census Day. Special arrangements were made to enumerate special groups such as the Armed Forces. The Census Coverage Survey (an independent doorstep survey) followed between 9 May and 3 June 2011 and was used to adjust the Census counts for under-enumeration.

2011 Census Microdata Sample of Anonymised Records Teaching File

#Background

The main population base for published statistical tables from the 2011 Census in Northern Ireland is the usual resident population base as at Census day, 27 March 2011. By way of background, for 2011 Census purposes a usual resident of the United Kingdom (UK) is anyone who, on Census day, was in the UK and had stayed or intended to stay in the UK for a period of 12 months or more, or had a permanent UK address and was outside the UK and had intended to be outside the UK for less than 12 months.

Against this background, the 2011 Census Microdata Sample of Anonymised Records (SARs) Teaching File comprises a sample of 19,862 records (approximately 1 per cent) relating to people who were usually resident in Northern Ireland at the time of the 2011 Census. For each individual, information is available for seventeen separate characteristics (for example, sex, age, marital status) to varying degrees of detail. Both the size of the sample and the content of the records in the file have been harmonised, wherever possible, with the equivalent SARs teaching file that the Office for National Statistics simultaneously released for England and Wales.

#Purpose

The primary purpose of the teaching file, which comprises unit-record level data as opposed to statistical aggregates, is as an educational tool aimed at:

+ encouraging wider use of Census data by facilitating another way of examining Census data, for example through the building of statistical models, over and above that already available through the raft of standard tabular output released to date;
+ providing a broad insight into the sort of detail that is generally included in a SARs product, along with data formats and any associated metadata. This will enable users (arguably those less experienced at using SARs products) to ‘play’ with the data and increase their knowledge and skills in readiness for accessing the more detailed SARs products that are planned and will be available in, for example, a safe setting; and
+ assisting with the teaching of statistics and geography at GCSE and higher levels.

Disease Prevalence

Data has been collected annually since 2004/05.  A new GMS Contract was introduced in April 2004 and a fundamental funding stream called the Quality and Outcomes Framework (QOF) was introduced at that time.  QOF is a reward framework of indicators designed to remunerate general practices for providing good quality care to their patients.  An important feature of QOF is the maintenance of registers which allow prevalence of a number of long-term conditions to be calculated.  Register counts and prevalence per 1,000 GP registered population are published.  Where registers are age-specific, prevalence per 1,000 age-specific population are also published.
