A Population Census encompasses the entire process of collecting, processing, compiling, and publishing demographic, economic and social data pertaining to all residents in a country or a region at a specified time. A Population Census in Indonesia is usually referred to as population enumeration, that is, the collecting of data/information for all residents who live in the territorial area of Indonesia. Data collected, among others, are: name, age, sex, education, religion, citizenship, occupation, and birth place. The result is the total number of residents with their characteristics, which are very useful in planning, monitoring, and assessing the development programs. The 2010PC will provide information on the actual conditions of the population, their housing conditions, education and details of the labor force at the lowest administrative level.
Since Indonesia's independence, five population censuses have been conducted, that is, in 1961, 1971, 1980, 1990, and 2000. The 2010 Population Census (SP2010) will be the sixth population census. SP2010 is an enormous activity that consists of interrelated stages of activities beginning with planning, preparation, data collection, data processing and dissemination, and data analysis. Activities for SP2010 began in 2007 and should be completed by 2013. The series of SP2010 activities began with the collection of village potential data (PODES), followed by the mapping of administrative areas and census blocks, a census test and other activities related to the preparation of SP2010. A pilot census was conducted in 2009 to test the quality, validity, and ease of use of all instruments, procedures and systems that will be used in SP2010. The peak of activity for SP2010 will be in May 2010 when the building and household registration will be implemented and the household and complete enumeration of all residents will take place.
