Public Use Microdata Custom Analytical Reports

描述(申请人提供)：决定人口统计设计了一个负担得起的人口统计分析系统，定制分析报告。这些标准化、廉价且易于生成的报告使用了来自十年一次的人口普查的公共使用微观数据样本(PLUMS)数据。虽然制作这类报告由来已久，但这一过程需要复杂的专业知识和高昂的成本。这个项目将第一次通过使用预格式化的页面布局，使更多的受众能够访问Pums信息。定制分析报告将为客户提供对感兴趣人口的人口和社会经济变化的灵活和廉价的跟踪。实际上，这些报告将使对最强大的人口普查数据资源的访问民主化，将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联系的系统。到第二阶段结束时，我们将拥有显示几十年来社会和经济变化的定制分析报告模块。潜在客户包括地方、州和国家协会、工会和寻求识别和服务特定人口客户的企业。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pum制表引擎的人提供一套内容丰富且廉价的报告。

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.
