Abstract

The Urban Transition Historical GIS Project is a new data resource for United States counties and cities that takes advantage of NAPP's 100% digital transcription of records from the 1880 Census. It has developed several additional resources to make possible analysis of social patterns at the level of individuals and households while also taking into account information about their communities. One key contribution is the creation of historically accurate GIS maps showing the boundaries of enumeration districts in 39 major cities. These materials are now publicly available through a web-based mapping system. Addresses of all households in these cities are also being geocoded, a step that will enable spatial analyses of residential patterns at any geographic scale. Preliminary analyses demonstrate the utility of multiple scales and the ability to combine information about individuals with data about their neighborhoods.

测绘1880年的美国:城市转型历史GIS项目。
城市转型历史GIS项目是美国各县和城市的一个新的数据资源,它利用了NAPP对1880年人口普查记录的100%数字转录。它还开发了一些额外的资源,以便能够在个人和家庭一级分析社会形态,同时也考虑到有关其社区的资料。一个关键的贡献是创建了历史上精确的GIS地图,显示了39个主要城市的枚举区边界。这些材料现在可以通过一个基于网络的地图系统公开获得。这些城市中所有家庭的地址也正在进行地理编码,这一步将使在任何地理尺度上对居住模式进行空间分析成为可能。初步分析证明了多重尺度的效用,以及将个人信息与其社区数据结合起来的能力。

期刊介绍: Historical Methodsreaches an international audience of social scientists concerned with historical problems. It explores interdisciplinary approaches to new data sources, new approaches to older questions and material, and practical discussions of computer and statistical methodology, data collection, and sampling procedures. The journal includes the following features: “Evidence Matters” emphasizes how to find, decipher, and analyze evidence whether or not that evidence is meant to be quantified. “Database Developments” announces major new public databases or large alterations in older ones, discusses innovative ways to organize them, and explains new ways of categorizing information.
