Welcome to the Economic Commission for Africa’s Data Tools

•  
• Census/Survey Field Monitoring Dashboard: This web-based dashboard enhances the oversight of census field operations. It provides real-time data and performance metrics, enabling immediate identification and resolution of issues related to performance and data quality. Visualize complex data through intuitive graphs and charts, track progress against predefined benchmarks, and receive alerts for critical situations. The system is adaptable, scalable, and accessible from any device.
•  
• Census/Survey Project Management Toolkit: This toolkit streamlines the planning, execution, management, and assessment of census and survey projects. It offers end-to-end support, covering every stage from initial planning to result dissemination, ensuring projects are efficiently executed and aligned with statistical guidelines. Key features include role-based access, task management, automated reporting, multi-stakeholder collaboration, and pre-built project templates based on international census best practices.
•  
• Country Data Harvester: This online data store allows users to discover and access statistical datasets published by ECA Member States. The application enables ACS/ECA staff to capture and share datasets efficiently and allows users to search and browse them easily. Datasets are documented using the Dublin Core metadata standard to ensure consistency and interoperability.
•  
• Performance Management Dashboard (PMD): Enhance public sector performance with this all-inclusive platform for planning, tracking, reporting, and communicating public sector performance. The PMD connects an organization's strategic plan to its key priorities and offers a space to establish annual metrics and KPIs.
•  
• Census/Survey Helpdesk System: Obtain support for census and survey operations through this system, which streamlines the support process for enumerators and users. It centralizes queries, feedback, and troubleshooting requests, ensuring efficient ticket management, quicker problem resolution, and enhanced communication among data producers, administrators, and end-users.
•  
• Python Tools for Data Collection: Automate data collection and processing using Python script tools, leveraging the extensive libraries and frameworks available in Python. Extract data from various sources such as APIs and online databases, standardize, format, and clean the raw data, preparing it for upload to ECAstats.
•  
• Tablet Provisioning Application: This powerful, automated solution simplifies the preparation of tablets for digital censuses and surveys. The application effectively copies payloads to specified folder locations on each device and automatically installs all necessary applications. An integrated quality assurance feature checks and confirms that all payloads have been accurately copied, ensuring each tablet is fully configured and prepared for field operations.
