This new report generator from the Missouri Census Data Center that uses
the Summary File 1 was shared with the State Data Center (SDC) network
today, and Nathan Erlbaum of NYSDOT is sharing with you via me.

Subject: New SF1 report applications from MCDC
The Missouri Census Data Center announces two new report modules for
displaying data from the 2010 Summary File 1 data sets. These modules
are similar to ones we have developed for the American Community Survey
and 2000 census Summary File 3 data. You access both of the
applications using a shared front-end menu app that lets you choose up
to 4 geographic areas. The URL is
http://mcdc1.missouri.edu/sf1_2010/sf1_2010_menu.html (there is a link
to it at the top of the Quick Links navigation box which appears at the
upper-right of most page on the mcdc web site.) This works almost
identically to the menu front end for the ACS profiles. You select
your geography and hit the "Generate Report" button. This produces the
profile report with columns of data for each of the chosen geographic
areas. At the top of the report page is a link to "SF1 Detailed
Tables Menu". The geography selected is passed through; you now get
to select your detailed tables before hitting the "Generate Report"
button to view a report where each selected table is displayed for each
selected geographic area.
As with our other profile report products this one provides links to
dynamically generated charts associated with the tables and has
"drill-down" links that let you view the detailed table from the profile
items were derived.
See the MCDC home page (
http://mcdc.missouri.edu/ ) for more details
and pictures with arrows. The first line of the first picture is
taken from a sample profile report and says Note: Use this application
with caution, it's still in beta mode.
