On The Map - New Version!
The U.S. Census Bureau has just released a new version of its Local Employment Dynamics mapping tool, OnTheMap, with five years of employment and industry data for local areas in 46 partner states accessible free online.
OnTheMap Version 3 application allows users to:
- Perform Area Profile and Shed Analyses for work and home areas in both local and regional geographies;
- Define custom areas for detailed analyses
- Illustrate flows of workers across state borders
- Produce and export reports and maps
- View time-series animation over the five available years of data; and
- Perform highly specialized analyses using OnTheMap microdata available by download from the Cornell Virtual Research Data Center.
Version 3.2 adds New York as the 46th State to the mapping tool for the first time, with additional geographic rollups for Shed Analyses. OnTheMap is supported by the Employment and Training Administration of the U.S. Department of Labor and the state partners in the Local Employment Dynamics partnership with the Census Bureau. You can access OnTheMap by selecting "Local Employment Dynamics" at http://www.census.gov and then OnTheMap under Quick Links, or directly at http://lehd.did.census.gov. Comments should be sent to CES.Local.Employment.Dynamics@census.gov.
