BASIC APPORTIONMENTLecture 9
24GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook
Apportionment example
Population by voting district You want to know the population of a
voting district but only have census tracts Voting districts and census tracts are not
contiguous Approximate the population of voting using
census tracts and blocks
25GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook
Population by voting district
Start with census tracts
26GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook
Population by voting district Overlay voting districts (not contiguous
with tracts)
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 27
Population by voting district Better to use block centroids for population
Smaller than tracts
28GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook
Spatially join centriods
Join centroids to voting districts
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 29
Other simple apportionments
Population by
Neighborhoods
Zip Codes
Historic sites
Others?
30GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook
Census data to apportion Short form SF1 data (tract, block group,
block) Population Age Race Housing Units Others?
Long form SF3 data (tract and block group) Educational attainment Income Poverty status Others?
31GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook
ADVANCED APPORTIONMENTLecture 9
32GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook
Advanced Apportionment
Chapter 9 example Police want to know the number of under-
educated persons in their car beats Under-educated data is located SF3 tables,
census tracts or block groups (not car beat polygons)
33GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook
Data to apportion
Car beats
Census tracts
Beats and tracts
Not contiguous
34GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook
Beats and tracts zoomed
Tracts clearly cut across beats
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 35
Tract attribute table Tracts contain undereducated data
No high school degree
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 36
Math of apportionment Simple census data (e.g. population) is
not a problem Can use block centroids
Problem Block centroids don’t
contain undereducatedpopulation
Tracts contain thisinformation
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 37
Math of apportionment Tract 360550002100 Car beats 261 and 251
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 38
Math of apportionment
One approach Assume that the target population is
uniformly distributed across the tract You could split undereducated population
up by the fraction of the area of the tract in each car beat
What if, however, the tract has a cemetery, park, or other unoccupied areas? Then the apportionment could have sizable errors
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 39
Math of apportionment A better approach
Use a block-level, short-form census attribute as the basis of apportionment
Assume that the long-form attribute of interest is uniformly distributed across the short-form population (accounts for unoccupied areas)
One limitation of the block-level data is that the break points for age categories do not match those of the educational attainment data (persons 25 or older)
The best that can be done with the block data is to tabulate persons aged 22 or older
Close enough for approximationGIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 40
Math of apportionment Tract 360550002100 has 39 block
centroids that span 2 beats
Of the 26 blocks making up the tract, the 13 that lie in car beat 261 have 1,177 people aged 22 or older.
The other 13 blocks in car beat 251 have 1,089 such people for a total of 2,266 for the tract.
41GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook
Math of apportionment Apportionment assumes that the
fraction of undereducated people aged 25 or older is the same as that for the general population aged 22 or older This fraction, called the weight, is 1,177 ÷
2,266 = 0.519. For the other car beat, the weight is 1,089 ÷ 2,266 = 0.481
Thus, we estimate the contribution of tract 36055002100 to car beat 261’s undereducated population to be (1,177 ÷ 2,266) × 205 = 106. For car beat 251, it is (1,089 ÷ 2,266) × 205 = 99
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 42
Math of apportionment Eventually, by apportioning all tracts,
we can sum up the total undereducated population for car beats 261 and 251
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 43
BACKGROUND STEPSLecture 9
44GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook
Background steps1.) Download census data
Download census block and tract polygons from the census Web sites for the county containing the administrative area polygons
Download the short-form census data for blocks that are the basis of apportionment, in this case the population of age 22 and greater
Download the long-form census attribute(s) at the tract level that you wish to apportion to the administrative area, in this case the population aged 25 or greater with less than high school education
45GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook
Background steps2.) Create new tract layer
That intersects administrative boundaries
If a tract is only partially inside the administrative area, you must include the entire tract for apportionment to work correctly
An example tract is the southerly-most tract in Tutorial9-3.mxd
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 46
Background steps
3.) Prepare block centroids Create a new centroid point layer for blocks Clip the centroids with the new intersected tract
layer Join census short-form data to the clipped block
centroids This is the layer that is the basis for apportionment
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 47
Background steps4.) Sum the short-form census attributes in age
categories to create Age22Plus in the clipped block centroids table
This step is unique to this problem Also, this table has a new TractID attribute which
concatenates FIPSSTCO & TRACT2000 to create an ID matching the Tracts map layer
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 48
Background steps5.) In the attribute table for block centroids,
sum the field for persons aged 22 or older by TractID to create a new table, SumAge22Plus. This table provides the denominator for the weight used in apportionment
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 49
APPORTIONMENT STEPSLecture 9
50GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook
Apportionment steps1.)Intersect tracts and car beats to create new
polygons that each have a tract ID and car beat number
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 51
Apportionment steps2.) Spatially join the new layer of tracts and car
beats with the block centroids to assign all the tract attributes (including the attribute of interest: undereducated population) and car beat attributes to each block’s centroid
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 52
Apportionment steps
2.)
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 53
Apportionment steps3.) Join SumAge22Plus to block centroids to
make the apportionment weight denominator, total population aged 22 or older by tract, available to each block centroid
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 54
Apportionment steps3.) Export the join as a precaution
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 55
Apportionment steps4.) For each block centroid, create new fields to
store apportionment weight and apportioned undereducated population values, then calculate these values
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 56
Apportionment steps4.) Calculate values
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 57
Apportionment steps5.) Sum the apportionment weights by tract as
a check for accuracy (they should sum to 1.0 for each tract)
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 58
Apportionment steps5.) Each tract that is totally within car beats will
have weights summing to 1. Those partially within car beats sum to less than 1
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 59
Apportionment steps5.) Sum the undereducated population per car
beat
GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 60
Join apportionment results The last task is to join
the table containing undereducated population by car beat to the car beats layer, then symbolize the data for map display
