    Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and digital census boundaries enable custom census geography design. Three algorithms and case studies show results using 1991 UK census data.

    Area of Science:

    • Geographic Information Science
    • Spatial Analysis
    • Demographic Data Management

    Background:

    • Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology has advanced significantly.
    • Digital boundaries for census output areas are now widely available.
    • Traditional census geography may not meet specific user needs.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce algorithms for user-defined census geography.
    • To demonstrate the application of these algorithms using 1991 UK census data.
    • To showcase the benefits of custom zoning systems.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of three distinct algorithms for census geography design.
    • Implementation of algorithms within an Arc/Info software environment.
    • Application of methods to 1991 UK census data for case studies.

    Main Results:

    • Successful creation of custom census zoning systems.
    • Demonstration of algorithm efficacy through practical case studies.
    • Validation of user-designed geography for census data analysis.

    Conclusions:

    • GIS technology empowers users to create bespoke census geographies.
    • The described algorithms provide a viable method for custom zoning.
    • Explicitly designed zoning systems enhance the utility of census data.
