Introduction
to EPUNet Data Services
EPUNet aims to develop and maintain links between researchers
analysing the ECHP, by providing technical assistance, to both new
and existing users. The services provided are:
A Data Transcription
Service
The data currently arrives on a CD in ASCII format, with data labels
filed separately. It has to be transcribed into SPSS, Stata or some
other analytical format before it can be used. The process is the
same for all users, and can be undertaken by a single agency on
behalf of newcomers (once they have obtained a license and the raw
data from EuroStat). These transcription files are available for
download here.

A Register of Data
Queries and Solutions
All surveys generate detailed queries about apparent inconsistencies.
This register of queries will enable you to check in advance whether
there is any difficulty with the questions you are planning to address,
or to find the solution to problems that you come across. There
is also an opportunity for you to add
queries yourself.

A File of Derived Variables
Most analysts derive new variables from the original data. These
variables are made available here so that other analysts can easily
make use of them. There is also a facility for you to add
variables yourself.

An E-mail Hotline
