ESDS features include: Data – full/partial catalogue search, browse by subject, also links to major studies, new releases Support – finding data, online guides, learning and teaching resources, online data analysis tools (NESSTAR), external statistical sources, FAQ Resources – Online data browsing tools, DDI tools, qualitative tools Advice for creating and depositing research data - best practice for ESRC researchers and beyond, preservation guidelines News & Events – workshops, new data, publications (incl. good practice guides)
- 17. The Samples of Anonymised Records (SARs) are a sample of individual person-level records drawn from the 1991 and 2001 Census databases that have been anonymised. Each file contains a broad range of socio-demographic characteristics for respondents. Interaction data involve flows of individuals in the UK between origins and destinations. These flows are either the residential migrations of individuals from one place of usual residence to another or of commuters making journeys from home to workplace via CIDER Longitudinal studies are data sources that contain observations of the same research units over a period of time – e.g. ONS Longitudinal Study of England and Wales, Scottish Longitudinal Study – linking census data to vital statistics via CELSIUS

- Apps Div – developing computer applications and bespoke computing tool solutions for the university as a whole IT infrastructure – Networks, Audio-visual support, telephony/ISDN connectivity
- One was because disk storage was a scarce and expensive resource. Researchers wanted and petitioned for centrally-managed university wide provision of access to large-scale datasets, typically the decennial population censuses for Scotland, the annual agricultural censuses for England & Wales and for Scotland, the General Household Surveys and a range of digitized boundaries being used in what was still path-breaking ways to do computerized mapping.
- Reference interview
- GEO-REFER – geographical referencing resources for social scientists, Go-Geo!, ESRI Virtual Campus plus Macro and Microdata teaching resources
