The Archive of Census Related Products (ARCP) is one of several efforts to support the Population, Land Use, and Emissions (PLUE) Data Project at CIESIN. This archive is a collection of georeferenced data files containing census information that spans the United States and its territories. This coverage will expand to include Mexico and Canada, establishing a North American repository for population, land use, and emissions data and integrated data products. These data files are value-added products derived from the original 1990 census files compiled by the U.S. Bureau of the Census. The major components are: -TIGER - boundary files based on TIGER 1992 files containing U.S. census geographies. -STF - demographic data files containing population and housing characteristics from the 1990 Summary Tape File STF3A and STF1B. -STP - migration files derived from the STP28 Special Tabulation for 1990 which show the movement of persons by county. -PUMS - public-use microdata samples which provide information for a sample of housing units with data on the characteristics of each unit and the people in it. The data are 5% and 1% samples of the population and housing of the U.S. Project URL: http://sedac.ciesin.columbia.edu/plue/cenguide.html [Summary provided by SEDAC.]
