title: Census statistics through combined use of surveys and registers?
abstract: "In this paper we present some results from a study [concerning Norway] on the feasibility of producing census statistics through the combined use of surveys and registers.  The main finding is that if one is willing to relax a little on the need for accuracy of statistics for 'small' areas, the large majority of the census statistics can be produced by such a combined use of data sources."
