ID 2007

2008-01-21T00:00:00--01:00

Just before christmas the DCLG released a new version of the Indicies of Deprivation (also called the Index of Multiple Deprivation:IMD) called the ID2007 to replace and compare with the ID2004. we fairly rapidly re-wrote a version of our ID2004 report to use this data but have been carrying out testing to make sure there were no problems, we havn't found any yet so we are releasing this today along with a new set of thematic layers corresponding to this data set. This report is available for all geographies, this is something we are quite proud of as we havn't found anyone getting close to being able to offer this sort of functionality. We hope you find it useful!

We will shortly be added some more population projections (including historical ones) and adding Lower SOA's as a selectable geography.

New ACXIOM Data Layers available

ACXIOM a company that specialises in Geo-Demographic data similiar to CACI's ACORN or Experian's Mosaic.
We are trialling a small subset of their lifestyle data as a group of layers in the BCSP which we feel users may find useful.

Tell us what you think.

BCSP Updates for 30/7/04

2004-07-30T16:23:00--01:00

NEW Ethnic Group Themes at OA that illustrate the distribution of Ethnic Groups within Bradford District. If there is data from the Census (or other data sources) that you feel could be usefully mapped in this way, please contact us.
NEW Graphs added to 2001 Census Report, at the moment there are no plans to extend this to other reports, however if you feel there is a need for them please contact us and providing their is sufficent demand we will add them.
NEW Middle Layer Super Output Areas added (Lower Layer Super Output Areas are already in the system).
NEW Indices of Deprivation 2004, available at SOA level, which is are a lot smaller than the wards that previous IMD2001. In addition to the overall deprivation score, each of the "domains" have their own maps as have the 20% most and least deprived SOA'S nationwide. Finally hovering the muse pointer over an area gives you information about the score and the rank amongst all of the SOA's in England.
NEW 2001 Population density map, available at the much finer level reduced postcode level rather than the 1991 Population density map only at the much blunter Census ED's. Additionally hovering the mouse pointer over a postcode when zoomed in gives further information. The postcode areas have been "cropped" to the residential areas so that for example postcodes which consist of an small area of residential area and a much larger area of fields has been reduced to the residential area. Therefore the population density is of the density of people in the residential area. NOTE: Because of the quantity of data with this layer turned on the map may be slow to appear or update.
NEW Local Authority and Regeneration Areas added to the map including the new Area Committee boundaries.
