Data Quality Information
- Lineage
- Statement
- This point layer is an extract of the 2010 Census Center of Population file that has been converted to a spatial layer using the Latitude and Longitude fields. The coordinates were plotted as NAD 83, and the layer was subsequently transformed to NAD83 NY State Plane Long Island (ft-us). The population centers (aka population centroids) represent the center of a population's distribution within a census tract, which can be useful for operations like measuring the distance of a tract's population from some service or hazard. The unique ID is tractid; the FIPS state-county-tract- number code. This layer was created as part of the NYC Geodatabase (NYC GDB) project, a resource designed for basic geographic analysis and thematic mapping within the five boroughs of New York City.
