The application permits the user to specify the geographic scope of the correspondence files (typically, one or more complete states, but with the ability to specify counties, cities, or metropolitan areas within those states), and, of course, the specific geographic coverages to be processed. The latter include virtually all geographic units reported in the 1990 U.S. census summary files, and several special "extension coverages" such as 103rd Congress districts, PUMA areas used in the 1990 PUMS files, Labor Market and Commuting Zone areas, and even hydrol[o]gical unit codes (watersheds). The application creates a report file and a comma-delimited ascii file (by default) which the user can then browse and/or save to their local disk"--Help page |
