人口普查是有关英国常住地之间移民定向流动以及居住地和工作地之间通勤者定向流动的主要信息来源之一。过去，人口普查出发地-目的地计数的使用受到数据复杂性和缺乏用户可访问性的限制。为了提高可访问性，开发了一个新的基于 Web 的界面，它是 2002 年推出的人口普查交互数据服务的核心。作者从用户角度解释了基于 Web 的人口普查交互数据界面，重点介绍了系统的各种功能，这些功能使查询能够以快速、简单的方式构建查询以及提取和下载流数据子集。提供的示例是为了演示替代类型的查询，并说明这些数据集在提供交互行为洞察方面的价值。
Population censuses are among the primary sources of information on directional flows of migrants between places of usual residence, and of commuters between places of dwelling and work in Great Britain. The use of census origin–destination counts has in the past been restricted by data complexities and the lack of user accessibility. In order to improve accessibility a new, web-based interface has been developed which is the core of a Census Interaction Data Service, launched in 2002. The authors explain the Web-based Interface to Census Interaction Data from a user perspective, focusing on various features of the system that enable queries to be constructed and subsets of flow data to be extracted and downloaded in a quick and easy manner. Examples are provided to demonstrate alternative types of query and to illustrate the value of these data sets in providing insights into interaction behaviour.
