  Description:
    Abstract:

        US Census 2000 source data for Rhode Island excerpted from Summary File 3 (SF3) of Population, Housing & Economic information including sex, race, age, employment, transportation, education, income, household, family, housing unit, place of birth and language information to the Census Block Group level.  SF3 data is based on a sample population but totals have been extrapolated to coincide with whole population totals. The spatial base for this data set was derived from Census TIGER line data based on RIGIS 1:5000 scale mapping accepted and updated by the US Census in 2005.  It was spatially georeferenced into the Rhode Island State Plane Coordinate System by RIGIS in 2006

    Purpose:

        Tabular and Geographic US Census 2000 Summary File 3(SF3) information for general GIS use.

    Supplemental_Information:

        The intention of this dataset was to provide an overview of data from summary file 3 (SF3).  It does not include all data from SF3 only an overview of significant items. Users with more detailed needs may access additonal source information, available from SF3, obtainable directly from the U.S. Census.  Additional information pertinent to the state is also available from the Rhode Island State Data Center (401-222-8183) and the RIGIS Coordinator at the Statewide Planning Program (401-222-6483).

    Process_Step:
      Process_Description:

          Census 2004 TIGER/Line was used to divide Rhode Island into Tract, and Block Group  levels.  To link the SF3 information to the TIGER/Line geographic data The STFID Field  for Census Blocks  common to both data sets was used.
          [Acres] and square miles [Mi_2] were converted from the ESRI calculated [AREA]  in square feet.

          RIGIS computed the following fields within the joined tabular/geographic dataset.  The Census Tract ID was recalculated to represent the tract name.  The tract name [Ctract2000] excludes preceding zeros and has an optional two-digit suffix.  Block Group [Bgroup2000] was computed as a unique Block Group # within each Census Tract using a concatenation of [Ctract2000] and the first digit of [Block2000].  Town names [Town] were selected & defined utilizing RIGIS town boundaries.   Census 2000 Summary File 3 (SF3) was used to obtain significant Rhode Island Population, Housing and Economic information based on sex, race, age, employment, transportation, education, income, household, family, housing units, place of birth and language at the block group level.   Bgroup2000 was used as the common field to join the significant Census 2000 Summary File 3 information to the previously joined TIGER/Line data set
