SSB Microdata.no

Name: SSB Microdata.no
License: NLOD

microdata.no is SSB's platform for analysing individual-level micro data (income, education, employment, social security) in a sandbox where only aggregates leave the system — never personal data. KETL exposes predefined queries (income distribution per municipality, employment per education level, wage growth per industry) that run in the sandbox and are cached in aggregate form. Primarily for academia (segment J) and actuarial/insurance (segment F). Requires a token (SSB_MICRODATA_TOKEN); without a token the connector responds 503 not_configured.
