Summary/Abstract: The present article theoretically depicts the approaches for assess-ment of the quality of the so-called “big data” when applied in the official statistical practice as a data source. Some proposals and possible solutions for improvement of the quality of “big data” in their use in empirical statistical surveys are presented. At the same time, we have attempted to research the effect of raising the quality of big data in the context of widening the scope of the applied classical statistical methodology. The paper also outlines the challenges the national statistical offices face in the implementa-tion and the use of “big data” in a real statistical environment.
