The census has counted people on dejure and defacto basis. The dejure population comprises all the persons who belong to a given area at a given time by virtue of usual residence, while under defacto approach people were counted as the residents of the place where they found. In the census, a person is said to be a usual resident of a household (and hence an area) if he/she has been residing in the household continuously for at least six months before the census day or intends to reside in the household for six months or longer. Thus, visitors are not included with the usual (dejure) population. Homeless persons were enumerated in the place where they spent the night on the enumeration day. The 2007 census counted foreign nationals who were residing in the city administration. On the other hand all Ethiopians living abroad were not counted.

Research instrument

Two type sof questionnaires were used to collect census data: i) Short questionnaire ii) Long questionnaire

Unlike the previous censuses, the contents of the short and long questionnaires were similar both for the urban and rural areas as well as for the entire city. But the short and the long questionnaires differ by the number of variables they contained. That is, the short questionnaire was used to collect basic data on population characteristics, such as population size, sex, age, language, ethnic group, religion, orphanhood and disability. Whereas the long questionnaire includes information on marital status, education, economic activity, migration, fertility, mortality, as well as housing stocks and conditions in addition to those questions contained in a short questionnaire.

Abstract

Statistical data reflect the socio-economic and demographic conditions of the residents of a country are useful for designing and preparation of development plans and for monitoring and evaluation of the impact of the implementation of the development plans. These statistical data include population size, age, sex, fertility, mortality, migration, literacy and education, marital status, occupation, industry, housing stocks and conditions… etc. In order to fill the gap for these socio-economic and demographic data need, Ethiopia conducted its second National population and Housing Census in October 1994.

The 1994 Population and Housing Census of Ethiopia was conducted under the auspices of the population and housing census commission that was set up under proclamation No. 32/1992. The commission was chaired by the prime minister and the members of the commission were drawn from various relevant ministries. The Central Statistical Authority served as the office of the commission (secretariat). Hence the processing, evaluation and analyses of the data collected in this census as well as its dissemination are the responsibilities of this office.

Sampling procedure

All household in all housing units are counted. Systematic selection procedure used to decide whether to use long or short questioner. During the three days before the census day all households and housing units were listed in a separate form designed for this purpose, this list was used to identify the type of questionnaire that was to be administered to the households. One out of the fife household was selected to interview using long questionnaire, while the other four were interviewed using short questionnaire. Resident of hotels, hostels and other collective quarters were always interviewed using long questionnaire. Short questionnaire administered for the homeless persons. Weight were applied the information collected in order to let the data represent the entire population. This means the fingers presented in tables that refer disability, education, economic activity, migration, fertility, mortality and housing stock and condition represent the entire population.

The fact that the information was collected from a sample of household and not from the entire household does not make the information less reliable. In fact this process increase the quality of the information collected by reducing the work load that would have been faced if all household were covered using the long questionnaire. The reduction of work load improves the quality of the data because it is expected to facilitate a closer supervision during the field work, enable better data coding and editing, and enable the timely processing of the data collected.

The difference between the two questionnaire is number of variables.

The data collected using the long questionnaire included information on disability, education, economic activity, migration, fertility, mortality and housing stock and condition.

From the AfriPop website..."High resolution, contemporary data on human population distributions are a prerequisite for the accurate measurement of the impacts of population growth, for monitoring changes and for planning interventions. The AfriPop project was initiated in July 2009 with an aim of producing detailed and freely-available population distribution maps for the whole of Africa. Based on the approaches outlined in detail here and here, and summarized on the methods page, fine resolution satellite imagery-derived settlement maps are combined with land cover maps to reallocate contemporary census-based spatial population count data. Assessments have shown that the resultant maps are more accurate than existing population map products, as well as the simple gridding of census data. Moreover, the 100m spatial resolution represents a finer mapping detail than has ever before been produced at national extents. The approaches used in AfriPop dataset production are designed with operational application in mind, using simple and semi-automated methods to produce easily updatable maps. Given the speed with which population growth and urbanisation are occurring across much of Africa, and the impacts these are having on the economies, environments and health of nations, such features are a necessity for both research and operational applications."Data Source: AfriPop.org

Abstract

In the 1984 census, an attempt was made to collect information on various socio-economic and demographic characteristics of the population as well as housing conditions of the country to provide a firm basis for planning and the formulation and implementation of national population policies.

The 1984 Population and Housing Census was taken on both defacto and dejure basis. under defacto approach people were counted as the residents of the place where they were found, while under dejure approach every perosn was counted on the basis of his/her usual residence. The residence of a person means the place where he/she has been living at least for six months continuously.
