Small Area Population Estimation Using GIS, Remote Sensing, and Spatial Statistics. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, August 2009, Pages: 100
Knowledge of the size and distribution of human
population is essential for understanding and responding to
many social, political, economical, and environmental
problems. In the United States, the decennial census is the
primary source of demographic data. Although the U.S. Census
Bureau conducts census surveys at the household level, the
agency only releases the data by aggregated enumeration
units, not only to preserve the confidentiality of original
respondents, but also for administrative convenience.
Currently the finest census population data available to the
public is at the block level. The main purpose of this study
is to develop methodology to estimate sub-block-level
population and to assess the estimation errors. In addition,
the author intends to develop methodology for classifying
detailed urban land use classes. This study will have broader
impacts to the society in its potential applications.
