Public Use Microdata Custom Analytical Reports

描述（由申请人提供）：决策人口统计设计了一个负担得起的人口分析系统，自定义分析报告。这些标准化、廉价且易于制作的报告使用来自十年一次的人口普查的公共使用微数据样本（PUMS）数据。虽然创建这样的报告早已成为可能，但这一过程需要复杂的专业知识和高昂的成本。该项目将首次通过使用预格式化的页面布局，使更广泛的受众可以访问PUMS信息。自定义分析报告将为客户提供灵活且廉价的人口统计和社会经济变化跟踪。实际上，这些报告将使最强大的人口普查数据资源的使用民主化，使经过验证的研究商业化，并提供一个与2000年人口普查微数据产品相连接的系统。在第二阶段结束时，我们将拥有显示几十年来社会和经济变化的自定义分析报告模块。潜在客户包括地方、州和国家协会、工会和企业，他们寻求确定并为特定的人口统计客户提供服务。我们将为那些不能或不知道如何使用PUMS数据或各种互联网PUMS制表引擎的人提供一套信息丰富且价格低廉的报告。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Decision Demographics has designed an affordable demographic analysis system, Custom Analytical Reports. These standardized, inexpensive, and easy-to-produce reports use Public Use Micro data Sample (PUMS) data from the decennial census. While creating such reports has long been possible, the process requires sophisticated expertise and high cost. This project will, for the first time, make PUMS information accessible to a wider audience by using preformatted page layouts. Custom Analytical Reports will provide customers with flexible and inexpensive tracking of demographic and socioeconomic changes in a population of interest. The reports will, in effect, democratize access to the most powerful census data resources, commercialize proven research, and provide a system linking to 2000 Census micro data products. By the end of Phase II, we will have Custom Analytical Report modules that display social and economic change across the decades. Potential clients include local, state, and national associations, unions, and businesses that seek to identify and serve a specific demographic clientele. We will provide a set of informative and inexpensive reports for those who cannot or do not know how to use the PUMS data or the various Internet PUMS tabulation engines.
