1) Statistics Netherlands is working on several Big Data projects to produce new official statistics in a timely manner using large alternative data sources like road sensors. 2) Their Center for Big Data Statistics aims to reduce response burden, deepen methodological knowledge, and stimulate cooperation using an ecosystem of partners. 3) As a proof of concept, they have produced the first Big Data-based official statistic on regional traffic intensity using minute-level road sensor data from 20,000 sensors on Dutch highways. This required data cleaning, transformation, estimation techniques, and integrating skills from statistics, IT, and subject-matter expertise.
