Input Data

This implementation of PopGen remains consistent with previous implementation it requires data inputs in csv format. There are five required input tables: household marginals, household sample, person marginals, person sample, and geographic correspondence. Eventually, it's possible that group quarters tables will be allowed as optional inputs.

*household marginals: this table contains household counts for each control variable category for each control geography (tract, block group, taz). It should include a geographic identifier column and a column for each control variable category (i.e. if the user is controlling for income using three categories, this table should include 'income_1','income_2','income_3' columns). The values in the control variable columns represent the number of households in the geography that fall within each respective category.
