[postgis-users] OT: Any one know of a Census list that discusses the Tiger data

[Randy George]

Hi Barend,

... tiger census
"The report confirmed initial findings that there are no more than 1,500
tigers in India's reserves and jungles _ down from about 3,600 just five
years ago and an estimated 100,000 a century ago. One thing this report has
found, very alarmingly, is that there are virtually no wild tiger
populations outside the reserves," Wright said. - 

another subcontinent forums Nov 3, 2007 ...

:)

For Stephen,

Also this somewhat critical caveat on the use of current TIGER Census 2007 -
TIGER2007FE
http://www.census.gov/geo/www/tiger/tgrshp2007/usernote2007.html

Especially see:
 note 9 - no address fields populated in the edges.shp, you can populate
L/RFROMADD, L/RTOADDR,ZIPL/R from external onetomany addr.dbf fields

 note 10 - mixed primary and alternate names in edges.shp FULLNAME field,
you can repopulate from the external onetomany in the featname.dbf paying
attention to PAflag

Randy

So, would OSGEO be willing to host lists about every other existing national
data format (runs into the hunderds, I'd guess :-))
