ArcCensus 2006
Following the success of the 2001 Census
product, Navigate is
pleased to announce the release of the ArcCensus
2006 Desktop and ArcCensus 2006 Server products for ESRI
technology users.
Like ArcCensus 2001, ArcCensus 2006 is an ArcGIS extension
that is managed from its own toolbar. The
functional specifications have been designed in
consultation with demographers and users from
our public sector and private enterprise
clients.
ArcCensus 2006 enables you to build a new
layer of census information from selected census
attributes combined with standard or
user-specified polygon sets. The census layer
can then be integrated with all your existing
spatial data and manipulated with standard
ArcGIS functionality. The User Manual for
ArcCensus 2006 is available
here....
Key features of ArcCensus 2006 are:
a) Flexible geographic selection capability.
Select from standard ABS geographic
boundaries or choose your organisation’s own
customised boundaries.
b) Aggregate CD level statistics to custom
polygons by using CD centres or by
proportioning each intersecting fraction
according to its percentage of the total
area.
c) Intuitively find and select census
statistics columns to be attributed to your
geography.
d) Select a range of ABS data cells across
several census tables.
e) Create your own statistical columns using
formulae based on the selected census cells
including area.
f) Store both geographic selections and
census data set definitions, including
calculated cells, as metadata. This allows
the same census field set to be defined once
and used with many different geography sets
or to use the same geography set for
multiple census data extracts.
g) Generate reports from the data in your
new layers. These can be printed or imported
into other office applications for further
analysis and formatting.
ArcCensus 2006 takes advantage of the
fact that ArcGIS users already have access to
powerful GIS capabilities. There is no need to
pay extra for unnecessary GIS licenses. All you
need is the ArcGIS extension software, the
documentation and the data.
ArcCensus 2006 Desktop includes an ArcGIS 9.2 extension
and data repository of file based geodatabases
that contain spatial and statistical data from
the 2006 Census.
The desktop product enables
ESRI users to manage and analyse data from the
ABS 2006 Census of Population and Housing.
Cost of a single user licence is A$3200.00 ex GST. To order the product, download
the
licence, complete and fax to 61-2 9436 3870 with a Purchase
Order. An annual maintenance program is available to
manage advances in the underlying ESRI technology. ArcCensus 2006
Desktop is available in a concurrent user
licensed mode if needed.
ArcCensus 2006 Desktop includes the Basic
Community Profile (BCP). Other
Census 2006 Datapacks (eg Time Series, Working Population,
Indigenous) will also be made available as costed additions are
as they are released.
ArcCensus 2006 Server includes an
ArcGIS Server geodatabase of the spatial and
statistical data (BCP only) and an unlimited
