An new area classification will be useful as a framework for monitoring migration measured from other data sources post-2001

Further research need not be limited to using the classification directly:
- The development of any classification necessitates the evaluation and selection of variables. Any variables selected are likely to be more helpful in explaining the migration system and thus useful for future migration research – e.g. the development of projection models.
Notes:
Attribute poor data may be enhanced by a more attribute rich classification. Migrants moving between area a and area b could be ascribed the general migrant characteristics associated with most migrants moving between area a and b suggested by the classification.
