What's New in LandView® 6?

rule

The prime differences between LandView 5 and 6 are:

  1. Expansion of Census 2000 data to include the entire Demographic Profile (Tables (DP1-DP4) ). We have also added a button that includes the Demographic Profile for the entire United States.

  2. Replacement of the 106th Congressional data with data for the 108th Congress. In addition, a new map layer will show the 108th Congressional Districts. (The 106th Congressional District map layer will still be included in the MARPLOT® map for reference.)

  3. Creation of Demographic Profile data for urban areas and urban clusters.

  4. Expansion of the Population Estimator to work with the Demographic Profile data at the block group level.

  5. Updated versions of the U.S. Geological Survey's (USGS) Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Envirofacts data warehouse.

  6. The identification of U. S. Counties that meet the definition of Coastal Counties as identified by the Strategic Environmental Assessments Division of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
