The work of the development hub will involve the following work packages.1. Actively take steps to drive forward the ambition of a UK Longitudinal StudyInitially, the Hub will build on existing exploratory work on the use of E-Datashield methods to allow analyses to be undertaken that mimic a situation where separate datasets are pooled. To build on the long-term goal of a UKLS, the Hub would develop code to produce 'UKLS variables', and research the implications of using closely matched variables where no exact match exists. Together with the RSUs the Hub discuss with the relevant statistical agencies the possibility of support unit's holding data from other LSes.2. Promote the impact of the Census Longitudinal StudiesThe Hub will promote impact by encouraging data citation and raising awareness of outputs and impacts of research. Impact case studies will be conducted on a sample of projects from each RSU. The Hub would also work with the RSUs to organise seminars and workshops showcasing LS-based research to targeted external audiences.3. Deliver a single portal function providing the 'front door' to the Census Longitudinal StudiesThe Hub will provide a first point of access for LS researchers, primarily by providing a main website for the UKLS which would give a broad introduction to each of the LS and links to the relevant parts of the three RSU websites.4. Harmonise online tools, documentation and guidance, where possibleThe Hub will work together with the RSUs to co-ordinate a more unified structure and design for their individual websites, as far as appropriate. Through discussions with the management group of RSU directors and statistical agency representatives, efforts would be made to harmonise documentation, application methods and guidance for users.5. Deliver a single helpdesk for responding to generic queriesA more streamlined LS service would be further developed by the provision of a first point of contact for generic LS queries. This helpdesk would respond promptly to email and telephone enquiries, redirecting individuals to specific LS teams where appropriate.6. Plan and co-ordinate training and outreach activities with a particular focus on reaching new users, in collaboration with Unit Directors and the UK Data ServiceOutreach and training events would be co-ordinated across units in order to economically promote the RSUs to a wider audience. Pooling information on attendees to such events would also allow more targeted follow-up and make it easier to identify research groups who may not yet have been targeted as potential users.7. Engage with other related organisations in the UK and overseas to stimulate the most efficient delivery of the serviceThe Hub will work closely with RSUs and the new UK Data service to ensure synergies are exploited and duplications of work avoided. It will be ensured that information sources effectively cross-reference the different services. The possibility of a unified researcher training package will also be explored. The Hub will act as a facilitator of work between the three RSUs and the UK Beyond 2011 Population Statistics Programme, encouraging discussions on alternative options for producing population and socio-demographic data.8. Develop and maintain a distinctive identity of the service, in collaboration with the UK Data ServiceBy working towards the above aims of harmonising the three LS, the Hub will effectively create and build upon a distinctive identity. This will be further enhanced by the creation of a logo and dedicated Hub website. The possibility of having a single website for all RSUs would also be explored. The Hub would seek to facilitate collaboration between the RSUs and the UK Data Service on areas of shared interest.9. the Hub will establish and manage a Scientific Advisory Network, consisting of external stakeholders from the academic, public and private sectors.

开发中心的工作将涉及以下工作包。积极采取措施推动英国纵向研究的雄心。最初，该中心将建立在现有的探索性工作的基础上，利用电子数据域方法进行分析，模拟单独数据集汇集的情况。为了建立UKLS的长期目标，Hub将开发生成“UKLS变量”的代码，并研究在不存在精确匹配的情况下使用紧密匹配的变量的含义。中心与区域单位一起与相关统计机构讨论支持单位持有其他区域单位数据的可能性。促进人口普查纵向研究的影响该中心将通过鼓励引用数据和提高对研究成果和影响的认识来促进影响。将对每个RSU的项目样本进行影响案例研究。该中心还将与区域大学合作，组织研讨会和讲习班，向有针对性的外部受众展示基于美国的研究。提供单一门户功能，为人口普查纵向研究提供“前门”枢纽将为LS研究人员提供第一个访问点，主要是通过为UKLS提供一个主要网站，该网站将提供对每个LS的广泛介绍，并链接到三个RSU网站的相关部分。协调在线工具、文档和指导，在可能的情况下，中心将与各院校合作，尽可能为其各自的网站协调更统一的结构和设计。通过与统计机构主任和统计机构代表组成的管理小组的讨论，将努力协调文件、应用方法和用户指南。提供用于响应通用查询的单个帮助台通过为通用LS查询提供第一个联系点，可以进一步开发更加简化的LS服务。这个帮助台将迅速回复电子邮件和电话查询，并在适当的情况下将个人重新定向到特定的LS团队。与单位主管和英国数据服务部门合作，计划和协调培训和外展活动，特别注重接触新用户。跨单位协调外展和培训活动，以便经济地向更广泛的受众推广rsu。将这些活动参加者的信息汇集起来，还可以进行更有针对性的后续工作，并更容易确定可能尚未成为潜在用户目标的研究小组。与英国和海外的其他相关组织合作，以刺激最有效的服务交付。中心将与rsu和新的英国数据服务密切合作，以确保利用协同效应，避免重复工作。这将确保信息源有效地交叉引用不同的服务。还将探讨统一研究人员培训包的可能性。该中心将作为三个区域单位和联合王国2011年以后人口统计方案之间工作的促进者，鼓励就编制人口和社会人口数据的备选办法进行讨论。通过与英国数据服务合作，建立和保持服务的独特身份通过努力实现上述三个LS的协调目标，该中心将有效地创建和建立一个独特的身份。这将进一步加强创建一个标志和专门的枢纽网站。还将探讨为所有区域性教育单位建立一个单一网站的可能性。该中心将寻求促进区域情报单位和英国数据服务处在共同感兴趣的领域进行合作。该中心将建立和管理一个由来自学术、公共和私营部门的外部利益相关者组成的科学咨询网络。
