Una nueva iniciativa para facilitar el acceso y visualización de información georreferenciada, en este caso datos demográficos de EEUU.
Vía Worldchanging:
Social Explorer is a group of New York demographers who have taken year 2000 US census data and made it into interactive maps. And they've done a fantastically thorough job. You can zoom all the way from the national level to your own neighborhood (even the street you live on), and see all sorts of different data, from income to industry to gender to ethnicity to means of commuting to family structure. Want a map showing percent of foreign-born nationals who immigrated in the last five years? It's there. Want a map showing percentage of self-employed males? It's there. Percentage of housing where rent is between $600 - $800 per month, or where heat is provided by solar power? It's there. Populations of Estonian ancestry? It's there.
