2 TerraPop Vision An organizational and technical framework to preserve, integrate, disseminate, and analyze global-scale spatiotemporal data describing population and the environment.  Develop tools to make data interoperable across data formats and subject areas  Break down disciplinary silos

3 TerraPop Goals Lower barriers to conducting interdisciplinary human- environment interactions research by making data with different formats from different scientific domains easily interoperable

4 DOMAINS & FORMATS POPULATION MICRODATA AREA-LEVEL DATA Source Data

5 Making disparate data formats interoperable Microdata: Characteristics of individuals and households Area-level data: Characteristics of places defined by boundaries Raster data: Values tied to spatial coordinates

6 Microdata Structure Household record (shaded) followed by a person record for each member of the household Relationship Age Sex Race Birthplace Mother’s birthplace Occupation For each type of record, columns correspond to specific variables Geographic and housing characteristics

7 Khartoum, CBS-Sudan

8 1973 Census Tapes arrive at Muller Media (New York) via Barcelona

9 Dhaka, Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics

11 The Power of Microdata Customized measures: Variables based on combined characteristics of family and household members, capitalizing on the hierarchical structure of the data Multivariate analysis: Analyze many individual, household, and community characteristics simultaneously Interoperability: Harmonize data across time and space Age classification for school enrollment in published U.S. Census

12 Growth of Public-Use Microdata (number of person-records available) We are Here

13 IPUMS-International Microdata Over 100 Collaborating National Statistical Agencies

14 Area Level (Vector) Data Describing characteristics of geographic polygons Median Household Income by Census Tract

15 Area-level Data Sources Census tables, especially where microdata is unavailable Other types of surveys, data  Agricultural surveys  Economic surveys, data  Election data  Disease data Legal/policy information  Environmental policy  Social policy  Human rights

16 Raster Data Represented as pixels in a grid Mean Precipitation

17 Raster Data Beta system  Global Land Cover 2000  Harvested Area and Yield for 175 crops (Global Landscapes Initiative)  Temperature and precipitation (WorldClim) Future additions  Additional LU/LC and climate datasets  Elevation  Vegetation characteristics  Bioclimatic & ecologic zones

18 MICRODATA  AREA-LEVEL  RASTER Location-Based Integration

19 Microdata Area-level data Rasters Mix and match variables originating in any of the data structures Obtain output in the data structure most useful to you

22 Location-Based Integration Rasters of population and environment data Microdata Area-level data Rasters

23 Area-Level Summary of Raster Data

24 Rasterization of Area-Level Data

25 Rasterization Beta system – Uniform distribution assumption  Use lowest level units available  Rates – same value for all cells in unit  Counts – evenly distributed across cells in unit Future – Distribute based on ancillary data  Requires research on available methods  May provide as service – users select:  Ancillary data  Weights  Spatial distribution parameters
