Event details

This presentation will discuss how to deal with harmonising socio-demographic data in the face of incompatible geographies and boundary changes. First the range of (vector) geographies for which data may be available or required will be outlined along with how they are related by way of hierarchies (or not!). Then the process of using postcode locations to link geographies and convert data will be stepped through followed by an appraisal of the utility of the process. Finally, some choices about linking individual data to geographic zones will be noted along with various frameworks for time-series / longitudinal analyses
