During data entry, statisticians controlled the accuracy of the entire process from the questionnaire on the application. Data entry took one month and a half. After entering, the material was controlled. To control the data in MONSTAT, an application called CONTROL was elaborated; this detected logical and arithmetical errors at questionnaire level. For the updating process, MONSTAT elaborated an application called CORRECTION. The application enabled viewing the errors in the questionnaire, as well as the type of error in the survey. The correction of the material was performed by MONSTAT employees. The complete software was done in the IT department of the MONSTAT. The application was made in Visual Basic 6.0 and the database was SQL Server 2000.\n\nb.\tCENSUS DATA QUALITY\nA PES was conducted immediately after the end of the AC enumeration, from 25 June to 5 July 2010.
