rekisteriperustaiseen

rekisteriperustaiseen is a Finnish term that translates to "register-based" in English. It refers to a methodology or approach that relies on data collected and maintained in various registers. These registers can encompass a wide range of information, such as population registers, business registers, property registers, and health registers.

The register-based approach is commonly employed in statistical data collection and analysis, particularly within governmental agencies. By utilizing existing register data, organizations can often produce statistics more efficiently and at a lower cost compared to traditional survey methods. This approach can also provide a more comprehensive and longitudinal view of populations and phenomena, as registers are typically updated continuously.

In practice, a register-based system involves linking data from multiple registers to create a richer dataset. For example, economic statistics might be compiled by linking tax records, employment registers, and company registers. Similarly, social statistics could be derived from population registers, education registers, and social security registers. The accuracy and completeness of the statistics generated are heavily dependent on the quality and coverage of the underlying registers. International cooperation and the development of common standards for registers are important for enabling cross-national comparisons and data sharing.
