The web application has been designed using the City’s Mobile Application Framework.
Census Takers will use their tablets to get an up-to-date address list of households who have not yet completed the census.
For quality control purposes a small portion of households that complete their Census Online will still be visited by Census Takers. If your household is chosen to participate for this purpose, you will not be required to provide your Census data again, just to confirm completion.
All information provided during this process is secure and encrypted during transmission. Census Data is available on a city-wide basis or by geographic areas such as communities, individuals and single dwelling are not identified.
Census online gives citizens the convenience of completing the census at a time and location that is convenient to them. It will also help shorten the collection of door-to-door census information as there will be fewer households to visit.
The City's Census has been completed online since 2013, with the introduction of tablet based collection. This is the next progression of enhancements to the system as a whole, enabling self-serve completion of the Census. The City of Calgary has developed the online Census application in house to ensure full integration. Most of the other Municipalities do not utilise their own infrastructure to conduct the Census in their jurisdictions. By doing it this way, the City of Calgary has developed a system works seamlessly with our existing databases.
This year's Census includes the following questions:
The Civic Census is collected annually in the spring, beginning April 2.
Online census data collection for 2018 will begin April 2 and door-to-door census data collection will start April 20 and last approximately 3 weeks.
Access codes are sent to all Calgary households during the first week of April. If you did not receive one, or have misplaced it, you can request a new access code on www.calgary.ca/census.
If you receive an error message while completing the Census Online please contact us for assistance or wait for door-to-door census collection.
The Census Online collects information for main floor suites of houses only. Other suites will have to wait for door-to-door census collection, or they can contact us to provide census information over the phone.
