Thanks for sharing this. One question - How did the Stats Netherlands
people get access to the data from the cellphone providers? Maybe there are
some lessons there about structuring the request and alleviating public
fears that can be useful to data collection efforts here. Or did they
select their sample and then approached the providers with explicit
permission from this sample of the cellphone customers. In general, my
impression is that overseas it is a bit easier for agencies to obtain data
than here.

I thought I would share my notes from this conference.
FCSM is held every
2 years, and focuses on the many different surveys conducted by federal
agencies. ****
I have rarely attended, but this time, I gave a presentation about the
Transportation Secure Data Center****
http://www.nrel.gov/vehiclesandfuels/secure_transportation_data.html , of
which FHWA is the major sponsor. My attached notes do not cover my (and
Evan Burton’s) presentation.****

It is always interesting to see what people are trying, given that we have
so many of the same problems: cell-phone only households, incentives,
non-response, quality of response, disclosure avoidance, etc. So, even
if this post is not specifically about CTPP, there are some tidbits related
to ACS and census research at new university centers. ****
