title: Archival Version

description: This collection of computer programs and test data files
was compiled by the Census Bureau for use with GEOGRAPHIC BASE
FILE/DUAL INDEPENDENT MAP ENCODING (GBF/DIME), 1980 (ICPSR 8378). This
collection consists of files grouped into five categories: Special
Program Information Tape (SPIT) Datasets, UNIMATCH System Datasets,
ADMATCH System Datasets, EASYMAP System Datasets, and EASYCORD System
Datasets. Some of the capabilities of the programs in this collection
include: mapping files for which complicated data manipulation is
required, generating individualized lists of candidates for carpools,
linking of records on the basis of street address, creating shaded
area maps for statistical display, and producing a map coordinate
system.
