  On November 1, the seventh national census (hereinafter, the “Seven Census”) officially began.

It should be noted that, for the first time, this census adopted the electronic method to carry out the census registry, which was carried out in two ways: “household registration” and “household self-report”, using mobile terminals for data collection.

“Hello, excuse me! We are census takers and conducting a household survey …” On October 23, the census taker knocked on the door of Mr. Wang, who lives in Jinjiang city, Fujian province, and took the initiative to show it to the census taker. Certificates and send a “Letter to residents”. With Mr. Wang’s cooperation, the enumerator carefully checked the relevant information in the household record book, inquired in detail about the basic situation of the head of household, family members and the dwelling, and successfully completed the compilation of the register of names of the head of household. The whole process takes about 10 minutes. The census taker also agreed with Mr. Wang that he would visit his door again on November 1 for the official census record.

The census is a timely compilation of information on basic national conditions and population strength in the context of rapid development and change. The census is divided into three stages: preparation, registration, data collection and dissemination. Since the survey began on October 11, 7 million census workers across the country have used corporate WeChat to conduct door-to-door surveys to find basic information on census subjects and record the census methods they expect. All provinces and cities also actively held meetings to advance the mapping work and present clear requirements and work instructions for the mapping work.

At the official start of the census, Tencent Cloud provides back-end support, and the WeChat company opens the capabilities of the WeChat applet to help census takers enter information. Households willing to complete the report can enter the “WeChat Census Mini Program” to complete the entry of family members and personal information by scanning the unique QR code with the household code provided by the census during the census survey process.

Those who need the help of the enumerators to register can make an appointment to register in advance. Census officers will come to register at the appropriate time and use smart devices such as cell phones and pads to help census takers enter the information from the “WeChat Census Mini Program.” Residents who need to modify the information can re-enter the mini-program before November 5 and click “Cancel Report” to complete the information again.

It is worth mentioning that the data during the collection process will be uploaded to the country in real time, effectively eliminating possible human interference in intermediate links.

“Compared to the previous one, the biggest change in the seventh national census is the implementation of electronic collection and the use of small programs to complete the information. Households can also complete the report independently,” said Liu, one of the 7 million census takers. Many of the details can be seen in the progress of the times.

From paper form registration to electronic registration, relying on core Tencent Cloud technologies and capabilities such as big data, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, security, etc., based on WeChat and WeChat integration and intercommunication In the process of information gathering, data entry and calculation, China has greatly improved the efficiency of the census and realized the saving of labor and material resources. Ensures accurate data collection and avoids duplication of information and errors in the input process. The Tencent Cloud microservice platform provides a technical foundation for the back-end business of the census project and provides technical assurance for the smooth running of the census business.

It is understood that the census registration work will continue until December 10, and the census instructors and census takers will carry uniform certificates to carry out their work. I hope everyone can actively cooperate with the census and jointly complete the “answer document” of the good population census.
