- John Gerlach asked if I had the telephone numbers to Geographic Data
- Technology and CLARITAS/NPDC. They are:
-
- 800-331-7881 - Geographic Data Technology
- 607-273-8208 - CLARITAS/NPDC
-
- John also asked if I had a nice sample SAS program that showed how to use
- zipcode data with the GPROJECT and GMAP procedures. My preference is to
- refer John and others to the sample library that SI ships with SAS/GRAPH.
- Zipcode would be the ID variable in the GMAP procedure to link the response
- data with the boundary data.
-
- If you go with CLARITAS/NPDC's MAX data, you need to transform the
- coordinates with a data step first. I plan to submit a file describing
- the required data step to the SAS-L archives shortly and will post an
- announcement when this has been done.
