When initially acquired, census data is stored in a complex database structure, limiting access to those with significant database management and programming experience, not to mention knowledge of the language in which the census was conducted.
East View simplifies access – for each country, official census outputs are analyzed and reviewed through an 18-step process to ensure consistent data formats resulting in easy-to-use geodatabases that are easily navigated and uniform across all countries, including English translation of all headers, etc. In addition, East View produces a comprehensive Census Guide for each country that details how the data is organized, how to search for specific information, and how to visualize the data using a variety of GIS and data visualization software.
