COVID-19
Data that gives context to the pandemic
The UK Data Service helps to support users of data by providing:
- Self-study software and good practice guides, such as What is weighting?
- Teaching datasets many of which can be explored online without the need for additional software.
- Thematic guides identifying key datasets in various themes, such as health and quality of life, household amenities and income.
- A webinar and blog page showcasing how web-scraping real time data could help inform COVID-19 research and policy.
- A blog post on why social surveys are now more important than ever.
