Join us in this participatory class as we look at mapping capabilities in data.census.gov. You’ll learn the basics of mapping, including how to map data found in tables available in the site. Next you’ll learn how to use the mapping capabilities to discern between geographies and determine if they have changed over time. Then you’ll take a quick look at another great mapping tool offered by the Census Bureau—TIGERweb.
Time is allotted throughout the training for questions. General familiarity with navigating data.census.gov is recommended. Using two monitors is recommended for this class, if available.
To ensure that we can maximize the number of attendees, we ask that you only register for a single session. If you need to register for more than one session of the same workshop for any reason, please email us at census.data@census.gov to request this.
***When registering, if you receive a message that you are waitlisted, please sign up for later class. We are trying to move classes to Waitlist as they fill, but sometimes there is a lag in that update.
As we continue to develop new functionalities like search by address and advanced printing and download options, please let us know what features are important to you.
