2020 Census Enterprise Architecture and Infrastructure Transition PlanAppendix B: GlossaryTable lO GlossaryTennAdministrative RecordsBusiness Rules rument Authoring SystemInstrument MetadataMetadataModeDeflnldonInformation from external sources (e.g., Internal Revenue Service, Social SecurityAdm inistration, and Departments of Motor Vehicles) used to help create theframe, augment existing frame information, and/or augment responseinformation.The operational processes (e.g., creation, testing) and management controls(e.g., change management) to manage business rules over their life cycle ascensus and survey needs evolve.A business operation, requiring people, processes and systems, tocomprehensively and accurately count (enumerate), and subsequently create acomprehensive, authoritative list of all known people, residential facilities ororganizational entities, and their attributes. Because of challenges inherent toenumerating a large population and their attributes, the enumeration effort mayidentify less than 100% of the population. The information collected during acensus is captured in a data repository and is considered a frame (i .e., the knownpopulation).The property that enables a system to continue operating properly in the eventof the failure of (or one or more faults within) some of its components.Refers to: the set of questions to be asked in a census or survey and itsassociated medium, e.g., a paper survey form, an online survey form, anelectronic Blaise form . Instruments include the predefined responseoptions/choices presented to the survey respondent, the skip pattern associatedwith specific survey questions (e.g., "if the response to question 5 is Yes, skipquestions 6 and 7"), and the metadata created by an Instrument AuthoringSystem. The Instrument is a source of metadata used by Census Bureau systemsto determine how to interpret and process survey questions and surveyresponses.System used to create an instrument, e.g., BlaiseInformation that describes the content of a census or survey questionnaire.Information that describes how to interpret and process survey responses.Data that describes or provides information about other data. In the context ofCensus Bureau data collection systems, this refers to information attributes thatdescribe or help to explain operational data collected, created, or otherwisemanaged during a census or survey. Metadata is particularly important wheninformation is being exchanged between systems; it enables the system that isreceiving information to correctly interpret and process that information.Examples of metadata include column headings in a table, and extensiblemarkup language (XML) tags. The COMET initiative is currently developing XM Lstandards to improve future interoperability between Census Bureau systems.A mode is comprised of three primary components: the method for contacting aReporting Unit ; the means of administering the Instrument or questionnaire; andthe medium of recording the response (e.g., paper). Examples of survey datacollection modes are telephone (CATI), face-to-face in person (CAPI), Internetself-response through Web-based forms, and mailed paper questionnaires{PAPI).76
2020 Census Enterprise Architecture and Infrastructure Transition PlanTennDeftnidonSystems that directly perform and manage survey data collection with a specific' Mode, during the Data Collection phase of a survey or census. Examples of; current Census Bureau Mode Level Operation Control Systems are WebCATI (forMode Level Operation Control telephone-interview mode), ROSCO for face-to-face personal-interview mode),Systemsand Centurion (PRIMUS) (for Internet self-response, using Internet-based Webforms). Sometimes paper mode systems are included in this category; theseinclude Paper Capture systems (iCADE), MailOut systems (DocuPrint), and PaperControl systems (ATAC).Class of systems that directly perform and manage data collection using paperMode Systemssurvey forms, Internet-based web forms, telephone interviews, and face-to-facepersonal interviewsData about the process of collected survey or census data; usually consideredadministrative data about the survey itself. Paradata is important for reportingon key census and survey performance indicators to monitor during the dataParadatacollection process to predict census or survey response success rates, and todetermine when and how to best intervene in the data collection process tomaximize data quality and cost effectiveness.Information received via a mode from a reporting unit or respondent. Mostoften the information is a response to a solicitation received by the reportingunit. Alternate types of responses include a question, inquiry, or assistanceResponserequest. Response information may be received in physical form (e.g., completedpaper response form, via a face-to-face interview, via an electronic submission(e.g., Internet self-response), and/or other means.Class of systems that process survey response data after data collection activitiesResponse Processing Systemsare concluded. Systems that perform data editing, coding, imputation andestimation, e.g., CaRDS.The result of applying selection criteria to a frame to select a random selection ofpeople, residential facilities, or organizational entities from the frame. A subsetSampleof a frame. A list of people, residential facilities, or organizational entities thatare to be surveyed.Sample SystemA system that selects the sample for a given survey from the frame.A business operation, requiring people, processes, and systems, to accuratelycount (enumerate), and determine the attributes of a subset of a universe (asdetermined via a census) through a data collection effort. Requires, as a startingpoint, creation of a sample. Requires a survey instrument.The largest administratively defined group of reporting units or targetrespondents for which data collection is to occur. The highest level at which dataSurveycollection status is reported for a group of reporting units. A collection ofreporting unit groups. May contain one, a few or many reporting unit groups,depending on the needs and preferences of a given census or survey.In the context of MOCS, the survey owner will determine the scope of thesurvey. For example, a monthly ACS panel could be considered a single survey.Alternatively, the 12 monthly ACS panels within a calendar year may also beconsidered a single survey.The complete, real-world population of all potential Reporting Units, (i.e.,people, residential facilities or organizational entities). The goal of a census is toUniverseenumerate this population and record their attributes in a data repository.However, because of challenges inherent to enumerating a large population and1 their attributes, the enumeration effort may identify a representative subset of77
2020 Census Enterprise Architecture and Infrastructure Transition PlanTermWorkloadDefinitionpopulation, or a Frame. Note that some surveys use the terms universe andframe interchangeably.A collection of reporting units or respondents that are part of the same reportingunit group and for which a data collection operation is to be performed via asingle mode. The unit of data collection work transmitted from an operationalcontrol system (e.g., MOCS) to an Interview Operation Control System (e.g.,MOJO).78

Theinteractive review module allows staff to determinewhether a block has undergone growth (either address orspatial), or needs existing address or spatia l problems tobe fixed . BARCA maintains the review history and has areporting component.The other part of BARCA is the block-tracking database.BARCA will have Active Block Resolution (ABR) allowing itto be used alongside GATRES, see where the pins weredropped during the review phase, make spatial updatesto the MAF/TIGER database (MTDB), and prepare anMTDB address update output. One of the enhancementsto ABR will be to convert the tool from block to BasicCollection Unit (BCU) and migrate the completed blockreviews to BCU level.CAES will be an enterprise modeling platform that storesdata and uses it to execute statistical models in supportof survey flow processing, analysis, and control.86
