Environment and Planning A, 1995, vol. 27, issue 3, 425-446

Abstract: The availability of GIS technology and digital boundaries of census output areas now makes it possible for users to design their own census geography. Three algorithms are described that can be used for this purpose. An Arc/Info implementation is briefly outlined and case studies presented to demonstrate some of the results of explicitly designing zoning systems for use with 1991 Census data.
