Description

Since 1995, coordinates have been allocated to all establishments recorded in federal business censuses. After each census, detailed information of businesses locations and full-time and part-time employment in all economic sectors according to NOGA (General Classification of Economic Activities) are aggregated in hectares and published as geodata.Since 2011 the business census is replaced by the structural business statistics (STATENT), an annual full survey of business and economic information taken from the registers of the OASI administration (Swiss social insurance system). STATENT provides important information about the structure of the Swiss economy (e.g. number of enterprises, number of workforce), delivering a general overview over the economic landscape of Switzerland.
